Overview
The S5100 is a networked triple CHIRP module including 3 independent sonar channels. This
allows for simultaneous use of High, Medium and Low CHIRP, and for dual independent
ranges on a single screen. In addition, each frequency range can be viewed on connected
MFDs in the network.
The module is compatible with a variety of Navico's Multi-Function Displays (MFDs). See
more details on the S5100 website on www.simrad-yachting.com.

Mounting location
Choose the mounting locations carefully before you drill or cut.
For overall width and height requirements, refer to "Dimensional drawings" on page 18.
Do not mount any part where it can be used as a hand hold, where it might be submerged,
or where it will interfere with the operation, launching, or retrieving of the boat.
The unit should be mounted so that the operator can easily see the LED status indicators.
Check that it is possible to route cables to the intended mounting location.
Leave sufficient clearance to connect all relevant cables.
The unit can be mounted on a horizontal or on a vertical surface. Create drip loops when the
unit is mounted on a vertical surface with connections exiting upwards.
Before cutting a hole in a panel, make sure that there are no hidden electrical wires or other
parts behind the panel.
Ensure that any holes cut are in a safe position and will not weaken the boat’s structure. If in
doubt, consult a qualified boat builder, or marine electronics installer.
Note: Where flush mounted, the enclosure should be dry and well ventilated. In small
Ú
enclosures, it may be required to fit forced cooling.
Warning: Inadequate ventilation and subsequent overheating of the unit
may cause unreliable operation and reduced service life. Exposing the unit
to conditions that exceeds the specifications could invalidate your warranty.
– refer to "Technical specifications" on page 17.
Transducer installation
For transducer installation information, refer to separate installation instructions included
with the transducer.

Guidelines
Don't:
• make sharp bends in the cables
• run cables in a way that allows water to flow down into the connectors
• run the data cables adjacent to radar, transmitter, or large/high current carrying cables or
high frequency signal cables.
• run cables so they interfere with mechanical systems
Do this:
• make drip and service loops
• use cable-tie on all cables to keep them secure
• solder/crimp and insulate all wiring connections if extending or shortening the cables.
Extending cables should be done with suitable crimp connectors or solder and heat
shrink. Keep joins as high as possible to minimize possibility of water immersion.
• leave room adjacent to connectors to ease plugging and unplugging of cables
Warning: Before starting the installation, be sure to turn electrical power
off. If power is left on or turned on during the installation, fire, electrical
shock, or other serious injury may occur. Be sure that the voltage of the
power supply is compatible with the unit.
Warning: The positive supply wire (red) should always be connected to
(+) DC with the supplied fuse or a circuit breaker (closest available to fuse
rating).
Grounding the unit
For additional safety, install grounding cable in ground screw hole as indicated on the
illustration. Recommended 16 awg wire.

Power control
The unit has no power key and will turn on when power is applied.
If the unit is connected directly to the vessel’s battery, the module will continue to draw
power even when it is not in operation. It is recommended that the yellow power cable wire
be fitted with an optional on/off switch, allowing the unit to be powered off when not in use.
10
Some MFD systems can be configured for power control. When the S5100 is used in such
systems it is recommended to connect the unit to the power control bus and set the MFD to
power control master. Refer to your MFD documentation for more information.

Transducer connection
A
Warning: Removing the transducer cables from the S5100 while the
module is powered on can cause sparks that can damage the S5100
transmitter as well as the transducers. Remove the transducer cables only
after the module has been disconnected from its power source.
Transducers with 9 pin connector
Up to three 9 pin transducers can be connected directly to any of the sonar channels on the
S5100.
One 9 pin transcuder can be connected to the remaining open channel after a dual
connector transducer has been attached.
Transducers with 7 pin connector
Transducers with a blue 7 pin connector must be connected to S5100 by using the 7-9
adapter cable. 3 of these adapter cables are included in the box.
The adapter cable connects to any of the sonar channels.
Transducers with bare wires
Transducers with bare wires must be connected to the S5100 via the optional Junction box
(A) (part number 000-13262-001).
The Junction box cable connects to the sonar channels as follows:
• single frequency transducers: to any of the sonar channels
• dual frequency transducers: to Channel-1 and Channel-2, or to Channel-2 and Channel-3
as described in "Transducers with two connectors" on page 13
12
Detailed installation description and wiring diagram is included with the junction box.

Maintenance
5
Preventive maintenance
The unit does not contain any field serviceable components. Therefore, the operator is
required to perform only a very limited amount of preventative maintenance.
Checking the connectors
The connectors should be checked by visual inspection only.
Push the connector plugs into the connector. If the connector plugs are equipped with a
lock, ensure that it is in the correct position.
Software update
You can update the software for the S5100 from a display unit connected to the network.
Software version can be viewed on the Echosounder page when the S5100 is selected as the
sonar source.
Software version can also be viewed from the Sonar Installation dialog when one of the
S5100
channels is selected as the source.
The latest software is available for download from the product website.
1. Download the latest software and save it to a memory card
2. Insert the memory card to the display unit
3. Start the File explorer, and select the update file on the memory card
4. Start the update from the file details dialog
5. Remove the memory card when the update is completed
The dialog image examples are from a Simrad MFD.
