Connecting the Device to Power
When connecting the power cable, do not remove the in-line fuse holder. To prevent the possibility of injury or
product damage caused by fire or overheating, the appropriate fuse must be in place as indicated in the product
specifications. Connecting the power cable without the appropriate fuse in place voids the product warranty.
1 Route the cables using the appropriate tie wraps, fasteners, and sealant to secure the cables along the route
and through any bulkheads or to the deck.
NOTE: If necessary, the power cable can be extended
2 Connect the bare-wire end of the power cable to your power source and to ground.
NOTE: If you have both a 12 Vdc and a 24 Vdc system on the vessel, you should connect the device to the
24 Vdc system for the best performance.
3 Apply dielectric grease to the connector on the power cable.
4 Align the notch on the end of the power cable with the POWER port on the device, and press the cable into
place.
5 Tighten the locking ring.
Power Cable Extensions
If necessary, you can extend the power cable using the appropriate wire gauge for the type of power source and
the length of the extension. Use marine-grade connectors or solder and water-resistant heat-shrink tubing when
extending the power wires.
