In this example, a new device is added to the NMEA 2000 bus by
installing a T connector between a T connector and a terminator at the
end of the backbone (network bus).
Read these instructions carefully before attempting the installation.
Determine which of the mounting positions is right for your boat.
NOTE:
The following installation lists recommended tools and required
supplies that you must provide (supplies listed here are
not
included):
Transom Installation
Tools: two adjustable wrenches, drill, #20 (0.161") drill bit, Phillips head
screwdriver. Supplies: four, 1" long, #12 stainless steel slotted wood screws,
high quality, marine grade
above- or below-waterline sealant/adhesive
compound.
Selecting a Transducer Location
1. The location must be in the water at all times, at all operating speeds.
2. The transducer must be placed in a location that has a
smooth flow
of water at all times.
3. The transducer should be installed with its face pointing straight
down, if possible.
4. When mounting a transducer on the transom, make sure it doesn't
interfere with the trailer or hauling of the boat. Also, do not mount it
closer than approximately one foot from the engine's lower unit. This
will prevent cavitation (bubble) interference with propeller operation.
5. If possible, route the transducer cable away from other wiring on the
boat.
