Cannonlink™ Downrigger Controller Installation Overview - Humminbird CannonLink Manual

CannonLink™ Downrigger Controller Installation Overview
Before installing your CannonLink™ Downrigger Controller, you should set up
your boat for Positive Ion Control. You will then connect your CannonLink™
Downrigger Controller to your Humminbird® fishing system control head
and up to 6 CannonLink™ downriggers (plus one optional-purchase Cannon™
Speed-N-Temp). You may also connect the CannonLink™ Downrigger Controller
as part of a daisy chain of other Humminbird® accessories, by using the included
daisy chain cable.
NOTE: The CannonLink™ Downrigger Controller will only support up
to 6 CannonLink™ downriggers plus one optional-purchase Cannon™
Speed-N-Temp Sensor. Do NOT connect more than one optional-purchase
Cannon™ Speed-N-Temp Sensor, as more than one may result in
system instability.
NOTE: Only attach two downriggers to one battery. Humminbird® recommends
that the downriggers have their own separate battery, and NOT be powered off
the battery used to start the main gasoline engine of the boat. Confirm that all
batteries are fully charged prior to each use.
NOTE: Installation of the terminator plug and proper grounding are both
essential for proper operation. Confirm that each downrigger's NEG terminal is
connected to the NEG terminal(s) of the boat's main/engine battery(ies).
NOTE: In the event that the downriggers lose power during operation, you
must manually park the downriggers. You must also re-start the Humminbird(r)
control head before you can resume normal operation.
NOTE: Confirm that all power connectors are securely fastened to the batteries
and that all communications cables are securely fastened prior to each use.
