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.
