Mounting
Secure the Triton™ Edge™ vertically, with its cable exits facing down. To allow access to the cables, ensure there is at
least 15cm(5.9’’) of clearance between the connectors and the surface underneath them. Installation in an engine
compartment is not recommended because the environment is hot and electrically noisy.
To prevent interference between the unit and the vessel’s compass(es), ensure the unit is at least 50cm(20’’) away from
any compass.
It may be helpful to check the strength of the unit’s Wi-Fi® signal at different locations on the vessel before choosing its
permanent position.
Mark the hole positions (1), drill pilot holes (2); and x the sailing processor into position with the four supplied self-
tapping screws (3).
¼CAUTION: Always wear appropriate eyewear, ear protection and dust mask when drilling, cutting, or sanding.
Remember to check the reverse side of all surfaces whenever drilling or cutting.

Connecting the Triton™Edge™

AB C D
Earth-ground connection point (B)
Your vessel may accumulate static charge through friction with the air. To prevent a damaging discharge through the
NMEA2000® network, use a conducting wire to connect the Earth-ground connection point (B) on the Triton™Edge™
to a point on the hull that is in electrical contact with the water. This will ground the unit and network via a bleed path,
allowing excess charge to dissipate safely. This precaution is recommended if you are using a wired NMEA2000® wind
sensor or mast head unit, however, may not be required for a wireless wind sensor.
Power (A)
The unit is designed to be powered by a 12 V or 24 V DC
source. A 1Afuse, or circuit breaker, should be tted to the
positive terminal of the power supply.
Connect the red and black wires in the power cable to
the positive and negative terminals of the power supply,
respectively.
The blue and yellow wires are not used. Wrap their ends with
insulating tape to prevent short circuits.

NMEA2000® (C)
Use the NMEA2000® connector (C) with the drop cable and tee connector
(supplied) to connect the Triton™Edge™ to your vessel’s NMEA2000® network. The
network should already have a dedicated 12 V DC power supply, protected by a 3Afuse.
The following guidelines apply:
• the length of a single drop cable must not exceed 6 m (20 ft). The total length of all drop cables combined
must not exceed 78 m (256 ft).
• terminators must be installed at each end of the backbone.
• the total length of the network must not exceed 100 m (328 ft).

Ethernet (D)
Use the Ethernet port (D) to connect the Triton™Edge™ to a display or computer, or to an Ethernet expansion device on a
network.
It is also possible to connect to the sailing processor wirelessly, using its Wi-Fi® hotspot. Refer to the Quick Start Guide
for instructions.
