SUGGESTED PLOTTER CONNECTIONS
The following are suggested "Fish Finder - chart plotter" connections.
NOTE
On the chart plotter with software "S3" the Port 1 is optoisolated, so the Pin
4 - Green is the Input 1- and it is not the GND COMMON for the Port 2. The
described connections are valid too.
If the chart plotter has a quick disconnect bracket (see the chart plotter User
Manual) see the following picture to make the connection to the chart plotter:
