Installing The Transducer; Transom Mount Transducers - Uniden Clock Operating Manual

1. Connect the main unit to a 12-volt battery using the power cable
supplied with your unit. You may extend this cable as necessary,
but you must observe proper polarity (i.e., RED is positive and
BLACK is negative).
2. Connect the BLACK wire to the negative (-) battery terminal.
3. Connect the RED wire to the positive (+) battery terminal.
4. Make sure the connections are clean and tight so they do not
vibrate loose during the boat's operation. Occasionally clean any
accumulated corrosion from the battery terminals.
5. If for some reason the fuse is blown, replace with a 1 amp fuse,
normal blow.
DO NOT OVER FUSE! The unit consumes 0.25 amps of current when it
is on. You will want to keep your battery fully charged.
The three most popular transducer styles are:
TRANSOM MOUNT – Ideal on boats with outboard engines, or on
I/O driven boats.
THROUGH-THE-HULL – Ideal for boats with Inboard engine(s).
INSIDE-THE-HULL – Often called "Shoot Through Transducer"; it
can be used effectively if installation procedures are followed
carefully.

TRANSOM MOUNT TRANSDUCERS

Selecting An Installation Location
Mount the transducer fairly close to the centerline (keel) of the boat,
which will ensure minimum potential aeration over the acoustic window
of the transducer. On twin drive installations , install the transducer
between the drives.
On single drive installations , you should mount the transducer bracket on
the side of the boat where the propeller blade is rotating downwards.
This is usually the right (starboard) side. If possible, do not mount the
