Follow the precautions below for optimal 

product performance and to reduce the risk of 

property damage, personal injury, and/or death.

WARNING

: Always wear safety glasses, a dust mask, 

and ear protection when installing.

WARNING

: The power supply must be OFF before 

proceeding with the installation.

CAUTION

: To reduce electrical interference from 

other electrical wiring and any on-board equipment with 

strong magnetic fields such as radar equipment, radio 

transmitters, boat engines, generators, etc., separate 

the cables by at least 1m (3').

CAUTION

: Be careful not to tear the cable jackets 

when passing them through the bulkhead(s) and other 

parts of the boat. Use grommets to prevent chafing.

CAUTION

: Take care when matching like colored 

wires; there may be wires with stripped insulation. Be 

sure to connect blue stripe to blue stripe, solid blue to 

solid blue, black stripe to black stripe, and solid black 

to solid black.

CAUTION

: Make certain there are no bare wires, 

frayed strands, or loose ends to cause a short circuit 

inside the Junction Box.

IMPORTANT

:

 Please read the instructions completely 

before proceeding with the installation. These 

instructions supersede any other instructions in your 

instrument manual if they differ.

Applications

Use the junction box to connect an existing transducer without a 
connector to Navico’s echo sounder requiring a 9-pin connector.

Installation

Mounting Location & Hole Drilling

1. Select a convenient dry mounting location for the water-resistant 

junction box along the transducer cable’s route, a minimum of 
1m (3') from other cables and electronic equipment.

2. Hold the junction box at the selected location and mark the 

position of the four screw holes (Figure 1).

NOTE

: If the junction box will be mounted on a vertical surface, 

face the cordgrips sideways to avoid water seeping into the box.

3. At the marked locations, drill 3mm or 1/8" holes to a depth of 

10mm (3/8"). 

Do not fasten the junction box in place at this time

.
