Securing cables and replacing cover
When the DPU cables have all been connected, secure each cable to the
loops on the DPU, using the cable ties provided.
When all cables are secure, replace the DPU cover.
Donotuse the DPUwith the coverremoved,asthiscould degrade the
EMC performance.
2.5 Fitting Speed, Depth & Wind transducers
Each transducer connects to SeaTALK
2
via a dedicated Pod, supplied
with thetransducer. These instructionsdescribehow to fit the transducers
and run the transducer cables to the intended locations for the Pods. At
each Pod location, leave at least 2 ft (600 mm) of transducer cable, to
facilitate future connection.
Speed & Depth
Instructions for installing and maintaining the Speed and Depth
transducers are packed with the transducers. Install these transducer
types in accordance with these enclosed instructions.
Running transducer cable
Speed and Depth transducers each have a 45 ft (13.7 m) cable, which
connects tothe relevantPod. Observingthe guidelinesgivenunderCable
routing guidelinesnear the start of this chapter, run the cable to the
intended location for the Pod.
