2 Installation and Wiring The StructureScan HD black box module connects between the transducer and display unit, or via a network switch. Before installing the module, consider location and cable runs necessary to connect the module to the display unit and power source. Do not run the transducer cabling near the module DC power cables or any VHF antenna coax or power cables for the VHF. The module conforms to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards; but proper installation is required to get the best use and performance from this product. Selecting mounting location When installing the module certain factors that could affect its operation should be considered. Ensure you have as much separation as possible between different electrical equipment, (see diagram).
