5 Drill the remaining pilot holes. 6 Secure the device to the mounting location. Blink Codes After the sonar module is installed, it turns on when the chartplotter is turned on. The color status LED on the sonar module indicates its operational status. LED Color State Green Blinking Red Blinking Orange Blinking Red/Green Blinking Red Two blinks followed by a 3- second pause Red Three blinks followed by a 3- second pause Red Five blinks followed by a 3- second pause Status The sonar module is connected to a chartplotter and is operating properly. You should see sonar data on the chartplotter. The sonar module is turned on, but is not connected to a chartplotter, or is waiting to connect to a chartplotter. If the sonar module is connected to the chartplotter and this code persists, check the wiring connections. A software update is in progress. Reserved Other sonar failure. The transducer is not detected by the sonar module. If this code persists, check the wiring connections. The sonar module input voltage exceeds the maximum input voltage. Cored Fiberglass Boat Hull Installation Instructions The hole must be perpendicular to the water surface. 4 Place masking tape over the pilot hole and surrounding area outside the hull to prevent damage to the fiberglass. 5 Using a 32 mm (1 1/4 in.) bit at the stem hole location, drill from outside the hull through the outer skin , inner skin , and the core . The hole must be perpendicular to the water surface. 6 Sand and clean the inner skin, core, and outer skin around the hole. 7 Seal the exposed inner core with epoxy , and allow the epoxy to set thoroughly. 8 While holding a drill with a 9 mm (3/8 in.) bit plumb, drill the anti-rotation bolt hole through the hull from outside the hull. The hole must be perpendicular to the water surface. 9 Sand and clean the area around the hole with a solvent wash to remove dust particles. Applying Marine Sealant to a Thru-Hull Transducer You must apply marine sealant to the transducer to ensure a tight, waterproof seal between the fairing block and the hull. Do not apply sealant directly to the stem or anti-rotation bolt. Apply marine sealant around the base of the stem and anti-rotation bolt on the transducer. Installing a Thru-Hull Transducer with a Fairing Block Drilling the Transducer Stem Hole and the Anti-Rotation Bolt Hole in a Cored Fiberglass Hull Before you can drill the hole for the anti-rotation bolt, you must drill the hole for the transducer stem (Drilling the Transducer Stem Hole and the Anti-Rotation Bolt Hole in a Cored Fiberglass Hull, page 3) and you must cut the fairing block (Cutting the Fairing Block, page 2). The core must be cut and sealed carefully to protect against water seepage. 1 Select a mounting location without surface irregularities or obstructions. 2 Using the template, mark the location of the stem hole and anti-rotation bolt. 3 Drill a 3 mm (1/8 in.) pilot hole through the template and hull at the stem hole location. Installing the Transducer with a Fairing Block It is recommended that two installers complete these instructions, with one positioned outside the boat and one inside the boat. NOTE: When installing the transducer in a cored fiberglass hull, avoid over-tightening the nuts to prevent damaging the hull. 1 Apply marine sealant at the base of the anti-rotation bolt and transducer stem . 3
