Correct installation is critical to the performance
of the unit. There are three components to
install, the Explorer 660 display unit, the sonar
transducer and the GPS antenna. In addition,
install the optional fuel kit to use the Explorer 660
as a fuel computer.

The Explorer 660 can:

Drive external beepers or lights for the alarm.

Send and receive data from other Northstar
instruments connected via NavBus. The
backlight setting is shared (see section 16-6).

Send NMEA data to an autopilot or other
instrument.

Accept and display NMEA wind data from an
optional compatible wind instrument.

The Explorer 660 can be wired for auto power
so that it automatically turns on and off with
the boat power and can not be turned on or off
manually. Wire auto power if the fuel option is
installed, so that the Explorer 660 records all the
fuel that is used (see section 16-5).

It is vital to read the entire installation section of
this manual and the documentation that comes
with the antenna and any other units before
starting installation.
