From masthead
If the transducer is fitted on a masthead:
1. Remove the spade connectors from the free end of the cable, then feed the

free end of the cable down inside the mast.
• If the mast is a through-deck mast, feed the cable out through a suitable

below-decks aperture.

• If the mast is deck stepped, feed the cable through the deck, using a pro-

prietary deck gland.

2. Fit the junction box inside the vessel, close to the cable entry point.
3. Run the cable to the junction box, then allowing sufficient cable to connect

inside the junction box, cut the cable and connect each wire at the free end of
the cable from the transducer, to a separate connector inside the junction box.

4. Connect each wire at one end of the remaining cable to the same-colored

wire inside the junction box.

5. Run the cable from the junction box to the ST60 Wind instrument.
6. Crimp new spade connectors onto the wires at the instrument end of the

cable, as described above.
