1 Introduction

Thank you for choosing Star SEA Data.

SEA Data is a digital instrument which will display all necessary data from the SEA. SEA Data is
as standard, a log instrument, providing you information about speed, trip distance, total distance
and water temperature. As an option a depth transducer can be connected, giving you depth, shal­low and deep alarm.

The two transducers are connected to the back of the instrument. They are easy to install due to
the colour coded 4-pole jack plugs.

The display is divided into two lines, main function and sub function. The main function displays ei­ther speed or depth. The sub functions are divided into two lists, one under each main function.

Installation

• The installation includes 6 major steps:

1. Read the installation and operation manual.

2. Plan where to install the transducer and instrument.

3. Install the transducer, then the instrument.

4. Run the cables.

5. Take a brake and admire your installation.

6. Learn the functions and calibrate your instrument.

• Before you begin drilling... think about how you can make the installation as neat and sim-
ple as your boat will allow. Plan where to position the transducers and instruments. Think
about leaving space for additional instruments in the future.
