3. Connect to the Control Head
Use the following instructions to connect the Sensor cable to the control head.
1. Insert the Sensor’s NMEA-COM connector into the control head’s
COM port. The connectors are keyed to prevent reversed installation,
so be careful not to force the connector into the port.
If there is another accessory plugged into the COM port, you will
need to install the AS YC ("Y") cable so that you can use the
accessories at the same time.
Attach the COM connector of the "Y" cable directly to the control
head COM port. Connect the Sensor to the NMEA-COM connector
of the "Y" cable. Re-connect your other Fishfinder accessories to
the ACCY-COM connector of the "Y" cable.
2. Optional: The control head outputs NMEA signals through the
Sensor’s pigtail cable for connection to a device such as an autopilot.
Connect the NMEA Out (White Wire) of the cable to the NMEA In of
the device you are connecting to your Fishfinder. The pinouts of this
cable are as follows:
Green Wire, GPS NMEA Out
Black Wire, Ground
White Wire, Control Head NMEA Out
WARNING! It is important to finish all installation connections before powering
on the control head.
