Routing and Connecting the Transducer Cable
To prevent damage to the cable and the transducer, do not use the cable to pick up or pull the transducer.
Do not cut or splice the transducer cable. Cutting the transducer cable may void your warranty.
You must connect the transducer cable to a power source and a compatible Garmin chartplotter.
1 Route the transducer cable to the power source and a compatible Garmin chartplotter while taking these
precautions.
• Route the cable away from other wiring and the engine(s) to prevent possible interference with the sonar
signal.
• Route the cable so it is not pinched by other equipment
• Use grommets to protect the cable if it passes through the bulkhead or other parts of the boat
• Use black electrical tape to secure the cable where necessary to protect it from damage
2 Connect the power cable directly to the battery.
If it is necessary to extend the power cable, the appropriate gauge of wire must be used for the length of the
extension:
• 12 AWG (3.31 mm²) extension wire, up to 4.6 m (15 ft.)
• 10 AWG (5.26 mm²) extension wire, up to 7 m (23 ft.)
• 8 AWG (8.36 mm²) extension wire, up to 11 m (36 ft.)
3 Connect the transducer cable connector to the correct port on the back of the compatible Garmin
chartplotter, and turn the locking ring clockwise to tighten it..
NOTE: If necessary, use the included adapter to connect the transducer to the older, RJ45-style Garmin
Marine Network port.
NOTE: If necessary, for extra cable length, you can connect an optional extension cable, available at
.garmin.com or from your Garmin dealer.
