PORTABLE TRANSDUCER Installation Guide
1. If your transducer mounting bracket looks like one of the following illustrations, line up the
two ratchet pieces at position 1 so that the beads are aligned with the rib on the transducer.
See the illustrations.
2. Assemble the other transducer parts as shown (see the illustrations Assembling the Plastic
Bracket). Hand tighten only!

NOTE: If you are unable to ratchet the transducer so that it rests below the water, you can
disassemble it and align the beads with a different number until you reach a position that allows the
proper alignment.

| Connect the Transducer Cable
Locate the instructions for your control head configuration below.
Connect the Transducer Cable to the Control Head (Direct Connection):
1. Connect the transducer cable connector to the transducer port on the control head. See your
control head installation guide for details.
NOTE: The ports are labeled, and the connector is keyed to prevent incorrect installation. Do
not force the connector into the port.
Connect the Transducer Cable to the Portable Case (Portable Assembly):
1. Make sure the large opening in the front of the portable bag is unzipped. You may want to roll
up the flap and secure it while you're working.
2. Plug the transducer cable into the jumper port in the portable case to the left of the control
head, as you face the front of the bag (see the illustration Plugging in the Transducer).
Speed Accessory (Optional): If you are installing the optional Speed Sensor accessory, insert
the Sonar/Speed Y-Cable connector into the jumper port in the portable case. Then, connect the
transducer connector and speed sensor connector to the corresponding connectors on the Y-Cable.
The Y-Cable requires a separate purchase. Contact Humminbird Technical Support for details.
