Installation
Supplies
In addition to the hardware included with your Transducer Deployment System, you
will need the following supplies:
Drill with various drill bits
Electrical tape
Awl or pencil
1/2" & 7/16" sizes in wrenches, ratchets, and sockets
Torque wrench with 5 - 7 FT/LB capacity

Cables: Depending on your Humminbird® model and system configuration, you
may need to purchase additional cables, as shown below. Visit our Web site at
humminbird.com or call our Customer Resource Center at 1-800-633-1468.
• 700 Series™ with Ethernet: To connect the Ethernet to the control head,
you will need to purchase the Ethernet Adapter Cable (AS EC QDE).
• Extention Cables are available for Ethernet and the GPS Receiver/Heading
Sensor.
• Y-Cable: If the COM port on the control head is already used by another
installed accessory, you will need to purchase a Humminbird® Y-Cable to
add the GPS Receiver/Heading Sensor to the installation.

Switch (optional): If you do not have a main switch or fuse panel available on
your boat to connect power, you will need to purchase a battery switch. See
Install the Transducer Deployment System, Section 6. Route the Cables and
Connect Power for more information.
Lag Bolts (optional): If you are unable or choose not to drill completely through
the transom as recommended, you will need to purchase (4) 5/16" lag bolts of
the appropriate length.

Installation
Install the GPS Receiver/Heading Sensor
Use the following instructions to install the GPS Receiver/Heading Sensor (“Sensor”)
on your boat.
1. Choose the Mounting Location
It is important to consider the following information when you choose a mounting
location for the Sensor:
• Interference: Do NOT mount the Sensor close to a VHF antenna or within the
active area of a radar. Do NOT install the Sensor near ferrous metals or near
anything that can create a magnetic field. Hardware and cables that handle
large currents, such as batteries and power cables, are also examples of
equipment that may cause interference.
• Reception: Mount the Sensor in an area that has full exposure to the sky.The
effective area of reception is 5˚ above the horizon.
• Surface: Whether the Sensor Cable will be routed down through the
mounting surface or to the side, or if your’re using a stem mount, the
mounting surface will influence how you install the Sensor. For details, see
Section 2: Install the Sensor.
• Extension Cables: Test run the Sensor Cable from the chosen mounting
location to the control head. 10 ft (3m)extensioncables may be purchased from
Humminbird® if your planned cable route exceeds 20 ft (6 m). Maximum cable
length, including extension cables, should not exceed 50 ft (16 m).
• Y-Cable: If the COM port on the control head is already used by another
installed accessory, you will need to purchase a Humminbird® Y-Cable to add
the Sensor to the installation.

2. Install the Sensor
There are three different options to mount the sensor. Proceed to the section that
matches the type of mounting location you will be using, as follows:
Stem Mount with 1” - 14 Thread
The Sensor will be mounted on a stem or
antenna pole. Proceed to Section A.
Stem
Access Under the Mounting Deck
The Sensor will be deck mounted and the
cable can be routed down through the
mounting surface. Proceed to Section B.
Cable routed through the hole
NO Access Under the Mounting Deck
The Sensor will be deck mounted and the
cable must routed to the side because thereis
not space for a cable through or underneath
the mounting location. Proceed to SectionC.

Installation - GPS/Heading Sensor
A. Stem Mount with 1”-14 Thread
Use the following instructions to stem mountthe Sensor:
WARNING! Do NOT mount the Sensor to a stem
mount or antenna pole that contains ferrous metals.
NOTE: It is important to review the mounting
considerations and test run the cable route as
indicated in Section 1 before proceeding with the
installation.

Sensor Base to the Stem
Cover
Base
1. If you have a pre-existing stem mount, skip to
step 2.
If you need to mount the antenna pole (stem),
mark the chosen mounting location and drill a
3/4” (19 mm) hole for the cable and cable
connector.
If you have purchased hardware to stem
mount your Sensor, follow the instructions
included with that hardware to attach the stem
to the boat.
2. Screw the Sensor base onto the stem first,
making sure that the stem pipe does not
protrude from the Sensor base. (This adds
protection to the cable when it is pulled through
the pipe stem.) Deburr the pipe edges to reduce
cable abrasion.
3. Use electrical tape to secure the NMEA pigtail
to the cable.
NOTE: Unless it is needed, leave the NMEA pigtail
secured to the cable. If you are connecting the pigtailto
a NMEA 0183 device, see Section 3: Connect to the
Control Head for connection information.

4. Route the Sensor cable through the stem and
through the planned cable route. To use
extension cables, see the details in Section 1:
Choose the Mounting Location.
5. Position the Sensor so the arrow on the cover
is pointed straight toward the front of the boat
in the direction of travel. The arrow should be
parallel with the keel.
NOTE: Failure to alignthe Sensor correctly will result in
incorrect compass readings.
6. Attach the Sensor to its base using the
included #6 -1/4” screws. Hand tighten only.

B. Access Under the Mounting Location
Use the following instructions to deck mount the Sensor and route the cable down
through the mounting surface:
NOTE: It is important to review themounting considerations andtest run thecable
route as indicated in Section 1 before proceeding with the installation.
1. Mark the mounting location and drill a 3/4”
(19 mm) hole for the cable and cable connector.
2. Secure the NMEA pigtail to the cable with
electrical tape.
NOTE: Unless it is needed, leave the NMEA pigtail
secured to the cable. If you are connecting the pigtail
to a NMEA 0183 device, see Section 3: Connect to
the Control Head for connection information.
3. Route the Sensor cable through the planned
cable route. To use extension cables, see the
details in Section 1: Choose the Mounting
Location.
4. Cover the cable hole with the Sensor.
Position the Sensor so the arrow on the cover
is pointed straight toward the front of the boat
in the direction of travel. The arrow should be
parallel with the keel.
NOTE: Failure to align the Sensor correctly will result
in incorrect compass readings.

5. Make sure the Sensor is flush against the surface, and mark the two
mounting holes with a pencil or awl.
6. Move the Sensor to the side and drill two pilot holes, using a 5/32”
(4 mm) bit.
NOTE: Apply marine-gradesiliconecaulkor sealant to both screw and drilled holes as
needed to protect your boat from water damage.
7. Alignthe Sensor’s screw holes over the pilot screw holes and attachwith the
#6 - 3/4” Phillips head screws. Hand tighten only.
NOTE: If the mounting surface is thin or made of a light-weight material, you may
need to add reinforcing material below the mounting surface in order to support the
Sensor.

2. Route the cable from the Sensor to the Control
head.
• The Sensor has two wire routing notches.
Use the cable notch closest to the
intended cable route.
• If holes are required to route the cable,
they must be 3/4” (19 mm) to allow for the
cable connector.
• To use extension cables, see the details in
Section 1: Choose the Mounting Location.
