You will need to attach the power cable, Ethernet cable and a transducer to the BSM-1. The transducer and Ethernet cables are not included. Do not run the transducer cabling near the BSM-1 DC power cables or any VHF antenna coax cables or any VHF DC power cables.
Ensure you have as much separation as possible between different electrical equipment, (see diagram below). The BSM-1 conforms to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards but proper installation is required to get the best use and performance from this product.
Mounting the BSM-1 module Preferably mount the BSM-1 module on a vertical surface so that cables exit downwards. Secure using suitable fasteners for the surface. 4 SS self tapping screws are supplied with the equipment. Installation | 9...
Connect your transducer (see "Parts List" page 18) for a list of compatible transducers Removing the transducer cable from the BSM-1 while the module is powered on can cause sparks. Remove the transducer cable only after the module has been disconnected from its power source.

Connect power of BSM-1 to same power source as the display. If BSM-1 is connected directly to the display, it is important that the BSM-1 is powered on when the GB40 or 8000i is on so that the display can see a functioning network. C is a standard Ethernet cable.

Doing so will prevent voltage drop. Voltage drop will not harm the module, but it can cause the BSM-1 to reset. If the BSM-1 resets, some information could be lost and it may change the operation mode of the unit.

2. Cable 000-10046-001 is simply a stripped wire adapter cable that can be used if you wish to cut the plug off of an existing transducer. We highly recommend a professional electronic technician hired to do this soldering work.
