LDT-3002
Installation and Operation
Instructions
The LDT-3002 combines up to three temperature sensors in one
housing. (Since the LDT-3002 is packed with different options, you may
not have all three sensors.) It shows the temperature in either °F or °C,
selectable by the user. This unit fits in a standard 2 1/8" (54 mm) hole
used by most marine equipment manufacturers.
Mounting
The LDT-3002 mounts in any dash or flat panel that's at least 2 1/2" (64
mm) in diameter. To mount the unit, first make certain there is at least
3 3/4" (95 mm) from the
dash. Also, be sure there is room to route the power and sensor cables.

usable dash thickness is 1 1/8" (28.5 mm).

When you determine the location for the LDT-3002, drill a 2 1/8" (54
mm) hole in the dash. Slide the LDT-3002 through the hole from the
front of the dash. Align it so that it's straight, then tighten the two
screws with a phillips-head screwdriver.
Place the push-buttons into the holes in the bezel and snap it on to the
LDT-3002. The unit is now ready for wiring.

WIRING
Connect the wires as shown in the diagrams on the opposite page. The
LDT-3002 operates from 10 to 15 vdc (12-volt system). You can connect
the wires as shown in the diagram at the top of the page using only one
accessory switch (not included), which switches the unit's lights on at the
same time the unit is turned on, or you can wire the lights to a separate
switch as shown at the bottom of the page. Regardless of which wiring
method you use, the LDT-3002 must be wired to a 2-amp fuse! Failure to
fuse this product will void the warranty and could result in damage to the
unit or your boat.
Connecting the green wire to ground forces the LDT-3002 into showing
the temperature in Celcius when it's turned on. Otherwise, it shows the
temperature in Fahrenheit at power-on. If you don't want the temperature
in Celcius at power-on, cut the green wire and tape the end.
The unit won't be harmed if the power wires are connected backwards,
however, it won't work until they're properly connected.
SENSORS
The LDT-3002 can use the following sensors:
TS-W2BK Two temperature sensors - Water and Temp 2.
TS-3BK One temperature sensor - Temp 3 only.
We recommend you use the LDT-3002 with the above sensors in the
following combination:
One TS-W2BK. This gives you two temperature displays - Water and T2.
or
One TS-W2BK and one TS-3BK. This gives you three temperature displays - Water, T2, and T3.
For example, you can connect the TS-W2BK temperature sensors and
mount the sensor labeled "water" on the transom to measure surface
water temperature and the sensor labeled "T2" in the live well or on the
hull for outside air temp. The TS-W3BK has an extra connector so you
can attach the TS-2BK temperature sensor to it, then attach the TS-W3BK
to the LDT-3002 and have three separate temperature displays.
The temperature sensors can be mounted in any convenient location.
Use #8 stainless steel screws to attach the sensor to the hull. (Screws not
included.) When mounting the water temperature sensor , make certain
