| Choose the Mounting Location

It is important to consider the following information when you choose a mounting
location for the Sensor:
• Interference: Do NOT mount the Sensor close to a VHF antenna or within the
active area of a radar. Do NOT install the Sensor near ferrous metals or near
anything that can create a magnetic field. Hardware and cables that handle
large currents, such as batteries and power cables, are also examples of
equipment that may cause interference.
• Reception: Mount the Sensor in an area that has full exposure to the sky.
The effective area of reception is 5˚ above the horizon.
• Surface: Whether the Sensor Cable will be routed down through the
mounting surface or to the side, or if you're using a stem mount, the mounting
surface will influence how you install the Sensor. For details, see Section 2:
Install the Sensor.
• Extension Cables: Test run the Sensor Cable from the chosen mounting
location to the control head. 10 ft (3 m) extension cables may be purchased
from Humminbird if your planned cable route exceeds 20 ft (6 m). Maximum
cable length, including extension cables, should not exceed 50 ft (16 m).
