The PowerDrive may be pre-installed with Dual Spectrum CHIRP
sonar or Advanced GPS Navigation - including the ability to
connect via Ethernet to a Humminbird fish finder. These features
may be installed on their own or in combination with another
feature. All of these features require Accessory Cables to be
connected to an output device. The connectors are present on the
trolling motor and have cables that exit below the Control Head
or exit the Coil Cord at the base of the Mount. To better identify
Accessory Cables present, refer to the diagrams that detail
what the Dual Spectrum CHIRP and Advanced GPS Navigation
connectors look like.
