Sonar module installation
This chapter describes how to install the sonar module.
Mounting guidelines
Choose the mounting location carefully, make sure that there are
no hidden electrical wires or other parts behind the panel before
you drill or cut. Ensure that any cutting or drilling is done in a
safe position and will not weaken the boat’s structure. If in doubt,
consult a qualied boat builder, or marine electronics installer.
Do not:
• Mount any part where it can be used as a hand hold.
• Mount any part where it might be submerged or exposed to
moisture.
• Mount any part where it will interfere with the operation,
launching, or retrieving of the boat.
• Mount in a way so that moisture or condensation water can
follow the cables into the device.
Do:
• Consider the overall width and height requirements.
• Leave sucient clearance to connect all relevant cables.
• Check that it is possible to route cables to the intended mount-
ing location.
¼ Note: The enclosure should be dry and well ventilated. In small
enclosures, it may be required to t forced cooling.
! Warning: Inadequate ventilation and subsequent overheating
of the equipment may cause unreliable operation and reduced
service life. Exposing the equipment to conditions that exceeds
the specications could invalidate your warranty.
