After drilling the hole, pass the transducer connector up through the
hole from under the dash, followed by antenna connector. Pass the
power cable's bare-wire end down though the hole from the top.
If you wish, you can fill in the hole around the cables with a good ma-
rine caulking compound. (Some marine dealers stock cable hole covers
to conceal the opening.) No matter what type of installation you prefer,
be sure to leave enough slack in the cables to allow tilting or swiveling
the unit. If you choose to fill in the hole, be sure to position the cables
against the rear edge of the hole as you apply the fill material.
Before positioning the bracket, make sure the location provides a clear
view of the sky, so the internal GPS antenna can lock-on to satellite sig-
nals. Now, hold the cables against the rear edge of the hole. Slide the
bracket over the hole and butt the rear of the bracket base against the
cables, thus pinning them in place against the side of the hole. Fasten
the bracket to the dash. Attach the unit to the gimbal bracket using the
gimbal knobs and washers.
Portable Installation
Like many Lowrance products, the unit is capable of portable operation
by using an optional portable power pack. The power pack, a magnet-
equipped antenna module and an optional portable transducer, ex-
pands the uses for your sonar/GPS unit. It makes it easy to transfer
your unit from a boat to a car, recreational vehicle, airplane or other
vehicle without mounting a second bracket. You can use it in your own
car or boat, then take it along when riding in a friend's vehicle.
The power pack can be used with eight "D" cell alkaline batteries or an
optional sealed, rechargeable battery. Visit our web site for a complete
listing of all the available portable power packs.
