Wiring
Note: The illustration shows connection examples. Accessories and additional devices are sold separately.
Power (A): The unit is designed to be powered by 12 V DC. It is protected against reverse polarity, under voltage and over voltage (for a limited duration). A fuse or circuit breaker shall be fitted to the positive supply.
- Wire color: Red, Purpose: + 12 V DC
- Wire color: Black, Purpose: DC negative
NMEA 2000® (B): The NMEA 2000® data port allows receiving and sharing of a multitude of data from various sources.
Ethernet (C): Ethernet is used to interconnect high bandwidth devices such as radar, sonar modules, and other displays. Connection of network devices can be made directly to the Ethernet port, or via a network expansion device.
Sonar (D): Note: A 7-pin transducer cable can be connected to a 9-pin port using a 7-pin to 9-pin adapter cable. However, if the transducer has a paddle wheel speed sensor, the water-speed data will not be displayed on the unit.
- Supports: Sonar/ CHIRP Sonar, DownScan, SideScan, ActiveImaging™/ActiveImaging™ 3-in-1/TotalScan®/StructureScan®, LiveSight™ via PSI-1
- Note: ActiveTarget™ transducers are supported via its external module connected to the Ethernet network.
