  • Page 6: System Configuration

    The GP-1850F/1850DF mainly consists of a display unit, a GPS antenna and a dual frequency transducer. A DGPS beacon receiver is provided inside the display unit for GP-1850DF type. The mini chart card drive in the display unit loads elec- tronic charts. External equipment which can be connected include water tempera- ture and speed sensors, autopilot, and DGPS beacon receiver (GP-1850F).

  • Page 11 Attaching the transducer 1. Clean the transducer face to remove any foreign material. Lightly roughen the transducer face with #100 sandpaper. Also, roughen the inside of the hull where the transducer is to be mounted. 2. Warm the silicone sealant to 40 C before usage to soften it. Coat the trans- ducer face and mounting location with silicone sealant.

  • Page 14 Installing the thru-hull mount transducer Transducer mounting location This type of mounting provides the best performance of all, since the transducer protrudes from the hull and the effect of air bubbles and turbulence neat the hull skin is reduced. When the boat has a keel, the transducer should be at least 30 cm away from it.

  • Page 16 Procedure for installing the thru-hull mount transducer 1. With the boat hauled out of the water, mark the location selected for mounting the transducer on the bottom of the hull. 2. If the hull is not level within 15 in any direction, fairing blocks made out of teak should be used between the transducer and hull, both inside and outside, to keep the transducer face parallel with the water line.

  • Page 17: Installing The Transom Mount Transducer

    Installing the transom mount transducer This type of mounting is very commonly employed, usually on relatively small I/O or outboard boats. Do not use this method on an inboard motor boat because turbulence is created by the propeller ahead of the transducer. There are two methods of installation: flush with hull (for flat hulls) and projecting from hull (for deep V-hulls).

  • Page 19 Triducer 524ST-MSD, 525ST-MSD The triducer is designed for thru-hull mounting. Mounting considerations When selecting a mounting location keep the following points in mind: • Air bubbles and turbulence caused by movement of the boat seriously degrade the sounding capability of the transducer. The transducer should, therefore, be located in a position where water flow is the smoothest.
