Connecting the Hydrophone to the Receiver

You need to connect the hydrophone to the receiver to be able to display sensor data received by the
hydrophones.

Procedure

• Connect the extension cable of the junction box to a hydrophone input on the receiver:

• Connect to the NTC hydrophone input H1 or H2 to be able to receive water temperature from

Marport hydrophones.

Note:

H3 hydrophone input allows to receive water temperature from an NMEA

connection (Scanmar hydrophone or NMEA converter junction box). If you connect a
Marport hydrophone to H3 without NMEA converter, you will not have temperature
data from the hydrophone.
