The anti-fouling paint should be applied in a thin and even coat covering all
externally exposed transducer surfaces.
You should clean your transducer regularly and re-apply anti-fouling paint
every 6 months, or sooner depending on how rapidly organic growth builds
up.
For guidance on transducer cleaning refer to p.44 — Transducer cleaning
For instructions on re-applying anti-fouling paint refer to
p.44 — Re-applying anti-fouling paint
7.3 Pre-installation test
Warning: Transducer operation
Only test and operate the transducer in the water. Do NOT
operate out of water as overheating may occur.
Testing the transducer
Transducer operation should be checked before installation. For the
purposes of this test you do not need to assembly the connector locking
collar.
For detailed information on using the Fishfinder / Sonar app please refer to
the operation instructions for your MFD.
1. Connect the transducer to the relevant connector on your MFD or sonar
module that is connected to your MFD.
2. Fully submerge the transducer in water.
3. Power up your MFD and / or Sonar module.
4. Open a Fishfinder / Sonar app on your MFD.
5. If required, select the relevant transducer from the Transducer settings
tab ( [Menu > Transducer > Transducer] ).
6. If required, select the relevant channel from the Channel selection options
( [Menu > All channels] ).
7. Check that accurate depth and where applicable temperature readings
are displayed.
8. If you experience difficulties obtaining readings then contact Raymarine
Technical Support.
7.4 Transducer cable routing guidance
Guidance for routing your transducer's cable is provided below.
Important:
The transducer cable’s connector is supplied with a separate locking collar
assembly. Do NOT fit the locking collar assembly until after the cable has
been routed to the display.
• The route the transducer cable will take to your MFD or sonar module
should be planned before installing the transducer.
• The transducer is supplied with an 8 m (26.2 ft) fitted cable. If the cable
length is too short then extension cables are available to lengthen the
cable run.
Note: It is recommended that a maximum of two cable extensions are
used, with the total cable length not exceeding 18 m (59 ft).
• The cable should be routed as far away as practical from VHF radio
antennas and cabling.
• There should be sufficient slack is left at the transducer end to allow for the
transducer to be tilted up and down.
• Any excess cable should be coiled up at a convenient location.
• The cable should be secured at regular intervals.
