Some sonar or GPS units may require a software upgrade to display NMEA 2000 data correctly. For free software upgrades or additional information on the LowranceNet NMEA 2000network system, visit our web site, www.lowrance.com.

The EP-80R TH consists of the temp sensor module, a red cable connec- tor and the smart module, which converts analog temperature data to NMEA 2000 data format. The cable length measures 18 inches (46 cm) from the connector to the smart module and 10 feet (3 meters) from the smart module to the temp module. The EP-80R TH temp sensor is de- signed to operate in a temperature range of 4° to 176° F (-20°to 80° C).

Like other LowranceNet Electronic Probe (EP) sensors, your thru-hull temp is designed for use with a NMEA 2000 Network. Your sensor, however, is also compatible with LowranceNet blue connector net- works. It can be added to a blue connector network by using a red fe- male to blue female adapter cable. Your sensor MUST be connected to a NMEA 2000 network or it WILL NOT function.

The NMEA 2000 red female to blue female adapter cable allows users

to add red connector devices to a blue connector network.

Caution:

The maximum hull thickness for the EP-80R TH is 1-1/4" (31 mm).

Tools and Supplies

Your EP sensor packs with a T connector needed to attach it to a NMEA 2000 LowranceNet network. If you are connecting to an existing LowranceNET network, those are all the electronic components you need. If this is the first sensor you are connecting, you will need to pur- chase a LowranceNET Node Kit.

For complete instructions on setting up a new NMEA 2000 network or expanding an existing one, see the NMEA 2000 document packed with your EP-80R TH temp, "Setup and Installation of NMEA 2000 Net- works, General Information," part number 988-0154-173. If that docu- ment is missing, it can be downloaded free from the Lowrance web site.
