Try to align the transducer 
so that the point is aimed 
at the bow of the vessel. 

 

STEP 4   

Routing the Cable 

1.  After the adhesive has cured, route the cable the mounting location of the 

depth sounder transducer plug. To reduce electrical interference, separate 
the  transducer cable from other electrical wiring. Coil any excess cable and 
secure it in place using tie-wraps. 

2.  Plug the cable into the corresponding cable on the 

Digital Depth Sounder display.

High Speed performance of the depth sounder may require 
extensive adjustment and testing to find the best transducer 
mounting location. This transducer has been tested to perform up 

to 70 MPH in an In-Hull application. Not all boat hull configurations will allow 
for this type of performance. If you are not satisfied with the performance of 
the depth sounder, it is recommended that you seek the advice of a 
professional marine electronics installer. 

 

To Test Your Transducer Installation: 

1.  Make sure that the display is functioning properly by following the display 

testing procedures in the Display Installation and Operation Manual. 

2.  Place the vessel in the water. Once the display is turned ON, it will display 

the test sequence and then display the current depth.
