Preparation
1
| Test the Transducer Prior to Installation
Prior to installation, test the transducer to make sure that no damage occurred during shipping.
1. Confirm the control head is connected to power. See your control head installation guide for instructions.
2. Connect the transducer cable to the control head. See Connect the Transducer Cable.
3. Lower the transducer into the water.
WARNING! The transducer must be fully submerged in water during operation because the sonar signal cannot pass through air. Air
pinging can damage the transducer.
4. Power On: Press the POWER key to turn on the control head.
If the transducer is detected, the control head will start Normal mode.
5. Select a 2D Sonar View to display on-screen.
If the bottom is visible on-screen with a digital depth readout, the transducer is working properly.
6. Power Off: Press and hold the POWER key.
7. Remove the transducer from the water.
8. Disconnect the transducer cable from the control head.
