14 DS400X and DS500X Digital Fishfinders
Transducer Connection
A 25ft (8m) cable is supplied with the transducer. The transducer cable
connector has a nut that has been removed to aid installation. To enable you
to complete the installation without cutting the cable, ensure that any holes
you drill are large enough to accept the connector, with the nut removed
(approximately 13/16" or 21 mm).
Before attaching the transducer cable, you will need to attach the connector
nut, which is included in the transducer packaging.
The transducer cable is attached to the 7 pin male TRANSDUCER connector on
the connector panel of the DS400/500X. (See Figure 2-3 .)
CAUTION:
• Do not pull on the cable. This can damage the transducer wires.
• Do not cut the transducer cable or remove the connector.
• Do not try to shorten or splice the cable. Cutting the transducer cable will
severely reduce sonar performance.
• If the cable is cut, it must be replaced—it cannot be repaired. Cutting the
cable will also void the warranty.
WARNING:
Removing the transducer cable from the rear of the DS400/500X while
the fishfinder is powered on can cause sparks. Only remove the
transducer cable after power has been removed from the DS400/500X.
If the transducer cable is accidentally removed while the DS400/500X is
powered on, remove power from the fishfinder, replace the transducer
cable, and then restore power. As a safety feature, the DS400/500X only
recognizes that the transducer is connected at power-up.
