Installation Overview
1 | Install the Landscape Mode Mount
Use the following instructions to install the Landscape Mode mount onto the transducer.
1. The Landscape Mode mount should be open for this step of the installation. Unlock the mount by
pressing down on the two release buttons, and pull the mount open. It will relock automatically
once fully opened.
2. For installation on a trolling motor, determine if the transducer will be installed on the left or
right side of the trolling motor. (For installation on a MEGA Live Universal, proceed to Step 1.3.)
If the trolling motor stows on the right (starboard) side of the boat, you will mount the
transducer on the right side of the trolling motor.
If the trolling motor stows on the left (port) side of the boat, you will mount the transducer on
the left side of the trolling motor.
3. With the transducer face down and its cables pointed away from you, determine how the
Landscape Mode mount should align with the transducer.
Trolling Motor Installation Recommended Configuration: Align the mount with the hinge on
the left for a Port installation or on the right for a Starboard installation (see the illustration
Positioning the Landscape Mode Mount).
MEGA Live Universal Recommended Configuration: Align the mount with the hinge on the right
(see the illustration Positioning the Landscape Mode Mount).
NOTE: Your transducer will flip up for landscape mode when installed in the Recommended
Configuration. If you prefer to flip your transducer down for landscape mode, use the Optional
Configuration.
Optional Configuration: For installation on a trolling motor, align the mount with the hinge
on the right for a Port installation or on the left for a Starboard installation. For installation
on a MEGA Live Universal, align the mount with the hinge on the left. See the illustration
Positioning the Landscape Mode Mount.
