Intended Use
DSM300 and DSM30 Digital Sounder Modules are intended for depth finding and
fishfinding purposes on recreational (non-IMO/SOLAS class) boats. Echo
sounders require an appropriate Raymarine transducer and interconnecting
cable.
Safety Notices
This equipment must be installed and operated in accordance with the
instructions contained in this manual. Failure to do so can result in personal injury
and/or navigational inaccuracies. In particular:
CAUTION: High Voltage
Digital Sounder Modules contains high voltages. Adjustments require specialized
service procedures and tools only available to qualified serv ice technicians – there
are no user serviceable parts or adjustments. The operator should never remove
the cover or attempt to service the equipment.
CAUTION: Transducer Cable
Removing the transducer cable from the rear of the DSM300 or DSM30 while the
sounder module is powered on can cause sparks. Only remove the transducer
cable after power has been re moved from the DSM. As with any electronic device,
be sure the sounder module is mounted where it is well ventilated and free from
gasoline fumes.
If the transducer cable is accidentally removed while the DSM is powered on,
remove power from the sounder module, replace the transducer cable, and then
return power to the module. As a safety feature, the sounder module only
recognizes that the transducer is connected at power-up.

Chapter 1: DSM Installation
1.1 Introduction
This chapter provides details for mounting the DSM300 and DSM30 and
connecting to the display.
For the system to display depth, water temperature and speed, you must install
the transducer type(s) capable of transmitting the appropriate data.
Planning the Installation
Before you install your system, plan the installation, considering:
• Location of the sounder module, as described in Section 1.3
• Cable Runs, as described in Section 1.5
• Correct transducer for your application
EMC Installation Guidelines
All Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to the best industry
standards for use in the recreational marine environment.
Their design and manufacture conforms to the appropriate Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMC) standards, but correct installation is required to ensure that
performance is not compromised. Although every effort has been taken to ensure
that they will perform under all conditions, it is important to understand what
factors could affect the operation of the product.
The guidelines given here describe the conditions for optimum EMC performance,
but it is recognized that it may not be possible to meet all of these conditions in all
situations. To ensure the best possible conditions for EMC performance within the
constraints imposed by any location, always ensure the maximum separation
possible between different items of electrical equipment.
For optimum EMC performance, it is recommended that wherever possible:
7
• Raymarine equipment and cables connected to it are:
• At least 5 ft (1.5 m) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying
radio signals, e.g., VHF radios, cables and antennas. In the case of SSB
radios, the distance should be increased to 7 ft (2 m).
• More than 7 ft (2 m) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above and below the radiating
element.
8 DSM300 and DSM30 Installation Manual
• The equipment is supplied from a separate battery from that used for engine
start. Voltage drops below 10 V and starter motor transients can cause the
equipment to reset.
This will not damage the equipment, but may cause the loss of some information and may change the operating mode.
• Raymarine specified cables are used. Cutting and rejoining these cables can
compromise EMC performance and must be avoided unless doing so is
detailed in the installation manual.
• If a suppression ferrite is attached to a cable, this ferrite should not be
removed. If the ferrite needs to be removed during installation it must be reassembled in the same position.
Suppression Ferrites
The following illustration shows typical cable suppression ferrites used with
Raymarine equipment. Always use the ferrites supplied by Raymarine.
D3548-3
Connections to Other Equipment
If your Raymarine equipment is to be connected to other equipment using a cable
not supplied by Raymarine, a suppression ferrite must always be attached to the
cable that is closest to the Raymarine unit.

1.2 Unpacking and Inspecting the Components
Unpack your system carefully, to prevent damage to the equipment. Save the
carton and packing, in case you need to return the unit for service. Check that you
have all the correct system components:

A 3m-long cable is included for connecting your sounder module to a C Series or
2
hsb
PLUS (Pathfinder) Series display. Longer cables and connection cables for
other types of systems must be purchased separately.
Note:
C Series displays have 4-pin connectors while the older hsb2 PLUS Series displays
have a 3-pin configuration. This requires that you use a 4-pin to 3-pin adapter (Raymarine
part number R69081) when connecting a sounder module to an hsb
2
PLUS Series display.
This adapter is included with the DSM300 but must be ordered separately with a DSM30.

1.3 Selecting Sounder Module Mounting Location
DSM300 and DSM30 sounder modules are waterproof to IPX-7 is and is designed
to be mounted either above or below deck.
Mount the DSM where it is:
• protected from physical damage and excessive vibration
• protected from prolonged exposure to rain, salt spray and direct sunlight
• well ventilated
• as close to the transducer as possible
Do not locate the DSM:
• in the engine compartment
• on the main console
When planning the installation, the following should be considered to ensure
reliable and trouble free operation:
•
Access: There must be sufficient space below the unit to enable cable con-
nections to the panel connectors, avoiding tight bends in the cable.
Chapter 1: DSM Installation 11
• Interference: The selected location should be far enough away from
devices that may cause interference, such as motors, generators, and radio
transmitter/receivers. (See the EMC guidelines earlier in this chapter.)
•
Magnetic compass: Mount the unit at least 3 ft (1 m) away from a magnetic
compass.
•
Cable runs: The unit must be located near a DC power source. The power
cable supplied is 10 ft (3 m).
•
Environment: Provide good ventilation to prevent overheating.
CAUTION: Do Not Remove the Transducer Cable
Removing the transducer cable from the sounder module while
power is turned on can cause sparks. As with any electronic
device, be sure the sounder module is mounted where it is well
ventilated and free from gasoline fumes.
1.4 Mounting the Sounder Module
The DSM can be mounted either above or below deck using the supplied
hardware. To allow for ease of cable connection, mount the sounder module so
that the cables hang below the unit.
