1.1 Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the Maretron DST110 NMEA 2000
Temperature Transducer. Maretron has designed and built your transducer to the highest
standards for years of dependable and accurate service. The DST110 detects the water depth
with a 235 KHz depth transducer, the water speed with a paddlewheel and Hall effect sensor,
and the water temperature with a precision thermistor element.
The Maretron DST110 is designed to operate within the harsh demands of the marine
environment. However, no piece of marine electronic equipment can function properly unless
installed, calibrated, and maintained in the correct manner. Please read carefully and follow
these instructions for installation, calibration, and usage of the Maretron DST110 in order to
ensure optimal performance.
