Humminbird NS 10 manual Optional Flush Mount, Basic Functions Getting Started

IMPORTANT: Do not shorten the 40' receiver cable or connect the receiver directly to the control head without the 40' receiver cable. This will cause damage to the NS 10 electronics and void your warranty. Do not cut and splice the cables from the receiver to the control head. This will also void your warranty.

If your boat does not have a fuse panel, you can wire the power cable directly to the battery with an in-line fuse holder (not included) in the positive (+) wire. Never connect the NS 10 to an unprotected power source. Connect the black wire to the ground strip or negative (-) terminal, and the red wire to a properly fused positive (+) terminal. The fuse (not included) should be a 1 amp slow blow fuse available at any marine or automotive distributor.

Note: The NS 10 should be connected to power independent of the ignition switch, because the NS 10 will have to be restarted if power is disconnected at the source. Use an auxiliary battery, if available. This will prevent the battery voltage to the NS 10 from becoming too low while starting the boat engine.

Optional Flush Mount

Figure 7 shows a flush mounted NS 10 control head. If you would like to flush mount your NS 10 additional hardware is available. (Refer to section V11. Accessories)

BASIC FUNCTIONS: GETTING STARTED

This section contains the information needed to begin navigating with your NS 10. After familiarizing yourself with the “Screen Display” and reading through “Turning the NS 10 ON”, the basic functions will be introduced. These involve the use of both discrete keys and the Select System> In addition to this section you should view the instructional video to help you immediately begin navigation once the system has been installed on your boat.

If you have not already installed your NS 10 you may experiment with the operation of the NS 10 by using the built in simulator (Refer to section 1V. “Simulator and Map Preview).
