Wiring
This wiring diagram shows connection examples. Accessories and additional devices are sold separately.
Power, 10-pin connector (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 should be fitted to the positive supply.
Wire color | Purpose |
---|---|
Red | + 12 V |
Black | DC negative |
NMEA 2000®, Micro-C connector (B): The NMEA 2000® data port enables the receiving and sharing of data from various sources.
Ethernet, 5-pin connector (C): Ethernet interconnects 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, 9-pin connector (D): 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, water-speed data won't display on the unit.
Supports:
- Sonar / CHIRP sonar
- DownScan / SideScan
- Active Imaging™ / Active Imaging™ 3-in-1
- TotalScan® / StructureScan®
- LiveSight™ via PSI-1
ℹ️ Note: ActiveTarget® transducers are supported via its external module connected to the Ethernet network.
Gimbal Bracket Mounting
Step 1: Position the gimbal bracket on the mounting surface. Secure the bracket using appropriate fasteners (not included). The diagram shows the bracket being attached to a flat surface.
Step 2: Attach the mounting arms to the bracket. The diagram shows two arms being screwed into the bracket.
Step 3: Slide the Elite FS® unit onto the mounting arms and secure it. The diagram shows the unit being attached to the assembled bracket.
