• If needed, you can trim the grommet to enable you to route multiple cables through the same hole.
• The optional grommet does NOT provide a waterproof seal. You must apply marine sealant to the grommet
after the cables are in place to ensure a waterproof seal.
When installing the cables, you should observe these considerations.
• To ensure safety, appropriate tie-wraps, fasteners, and sealant should be used to secure the cable along the
route and through any bulkheads or the deck.
• You should not run cables near moving objects and high-heat sources, or through doorways and bilges.
• To avoid interference with other equipment, you should not run network and power cables parallel to other
cables, such as radio antenna lines or power cables. If this is not possible, the cables should be shielded with
metal conduit or a form of EMI shielding.
• You should install the power cable as close to the battery source as possible.
◦ If it is necessary to extend the power cable, you must use the appropriate wire gauge

◦ Incorrectly extended runs of cable may cause the radar to malfunction due to insufficient power
transmission.
Connecting the Power Cable
When connecting the power cable, do not remove the in-line fuse holder. To prevent the possibility of injury or
product damage caused by fire or overheating, the appropriate fuse must be in place as indicated in the product
specifications. Connecting the power cable without the appropriate fuse in place voids the product warranty.
