Transducer Installation

The Advantage comes standard with either a transom
mount or thru-hull style transducer. The transducer
includes both a speed and temperature sensor which
allows the Advantage to display current boat speed,
surface water temperature and elapsed distance in
addition to the depth below the boat.
IMPORTANT: If for any reason you prefer another type
of transducer available through Interphase, we will
exchange your unused transducer for one of your choice.
In some cases an additional cost may apply. Contact
Interphase's Accessory Sales Department (831) 477-
4944, extension 14 for additional information.
The Advantage's transducer contains a single ceramic
element which will operate on both the 200 kHz and 50
kHz frequency. The Advantage has an amazing amount
of capabilities, but it can not perform magic. It can not
see through objects such as your boat's hull. Therefore, it
is important to position the transducer so that it has as
clear a view as possible of the water below your boat, as
indicated in the top left illustration.

The sketch at left shows the proper orientation for both
the transom mount or the thru-hull transducer.
General Considerations
DO NOT CUT OR SPLICE YOUR TRANSDUCER
CABLE OR REMOVE THE 8-PIN CONNECTOR .
THIS ACTION WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
If you need a longer length cable than comes with the
transducer (30'), then purchase the optional 30' extension
cable, Interphase Part # 04-0009-008.
In addition to the above, the following considerations
should be observed:
1)
amount of acoustic noise, air bubbles or turbulence
Front
caused by the boat's movement. The transducer should
not be located nearby or especially directly behind the
propeller.
