4.Fill the hull with enough water to submerge the transducer body. Use a
5.View the sonar signal on the display and compare against what was observed in Step 2, making sure that the boat is in the same location as it was during your observationsin Step 2. If the resultsare comparable,move on to Step 6. Otherwise, locate a new position in the hull and repeat Steps 3 through 5.
6.Run the boat at various speeds and water depths while observing the screen on the depth sounder. If depth performance is required, test the transducer in water at the desireddepth. If the performance is acceptable, move on to Step 7. If the performance is not acceptable, repeat Steps 3 through 6.
7.Once you have determined the best mounting location using the above steps, mark the position of the transducer.
3.Routing the Cable
1.Once the mounting location is determined and you have marked the positionof the transducer,route the cable from the transducer to the depth sounder.
CAUTION! Do not cut or shorten the transducer cable, and try not to damage the cable insulation. Route the cable as far as possible from any VHF radio antenna cables or tachometer cables to reduce the possibility of interference. If the cable is too short, extension cables are available to extend the transducer cable up to a total of 50' (15 m). For assistance, contact the Customer Resource Center at humminbird.com or call
