    • Unless otherwise stated only use cables supplied by Raymarine. • Where it is necessary to use non-Raymarine cables, ensure that they are of correct quality and gauge for their intended purpose. (e.g.: longer power cable runs may require larger wire gauges to minimize voltage drop along the run).
  • Page 39: Cable Routing

    4.2 Cable routing Cable routing requirements for the transducer cable. Important: To avoid interference, the cable must be routed as far away from VHF radio antenna devices and cables as possible. • Check that the cable is long enough to reach the display it will be connected to. Optional extension cables are available, if required.
  • Page 40: Making Connections

    4.3 Making connections Follow the steps below to connect the cable(s) to your product. 1. Ensure that the vessel's power supply is switched off. 2. Ensure that the device being connected to the unit has been installed in accordance with the installation instructions supplied with that device.

  • Page 48: Routine Checks

    6.1 Routine checks The following periodic checks should be made: • Examine cables for signs of damage, such as chafing, cuts or nicks. • Check that the cable connectors are firmly attached and that their locking mechanisms are properly engaged. Note: Cable checks should be carried out with the power supply switched off.
  • Page 49: Transducer Cleaning

    6.2 Transducer cleaning You must clean your transducer regularly to remove organic growth. Organic growth can build up quickly on the bottom face of your transducer; this can impact transducer performance in a matter of weeks. Important: • When cleaning growth from an anti-fouled transducer, take care not to let paint dust and other debris enter the water, as this can have an impact on aquatic life.
  • Page 50: Re-Applying Anti-Fouling Paint

    6.3 Re-applying anti-fouling paint If you have applied anti-fouling paint to your transducer, it is important to re-apply it at least every 6 months, to maintain effectiveness. Follow the instructions below to re-apply anti-fouling paint. Important: • Following environmental best practice, preparation and re-application of the anti-fouling paint should be performed using suitable washdown facilities, which ensures paint particles do not enter the water and impact aquatic life.
