WARNING
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
can result in minor or moderate injury.
Warning, Caution Mandatory Action
Prohibitive Action
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The installer must read the applicable safety instructions before attempting to install the
equipment.
WARNING
WARNING
Be sure that the power supply is
compatible with the voltage rating
of the equipment.
Connection of an incorrect power
supply can cause fire or damage the
equipment. The voltage rating of the
equipment appears on the label
above the power connector.
Install the transducer according to
the installation instructions.
Failure to install the transducer
correctly may result in water leakage
and damage to the ship's hull.
For wooden or FRP vessel using a
steel tank, attach a zinc plate to the
hull to prevent electrolytic corrosion.
Electrolytic corrosion can, in the worst
case, result in loss of the transducer.
Do not disassemble or modify the
equipment.
Fire, electrical shock or serious injury
can result.
Turn off the power at the switchboard
before beginning the installation.
Connect to a dedicated breaker in
the power distributor.
Fire or electrical shock can result if the
power is left on.
Do not install the equipment where it
may get wet from rain or water splash.
Water in the equipment can result in fire,
electrical shock or damage the
equipment.
Be sure no water leaks in at the trans-
ducer mounting location.
Water leakage can sink the vessel.
Also, confirm that the transducer will not
loosen by ship's vibration. The installer
of the equipment is solely responsible for
the proper installation of the equipment.
FURUNO will assume no responsibility
for any damage associated with improper
installation.
Use the proper cable and fuse.
Use of an incorrect cable and fuse can
damage the equipment and can cause
fire.

ii
CAUTION
Observe the following compass safe
distances to prevent interference to a
magnetic compass:
Ground the equipment to
prevent mutual interference.
Do not allow warm water or any other
liquid other than seawater or
freshwater to contact the transducer.
The transducer may become damaged.
Do not turn on the power when the
transducer is in air.
The transducer may become damaged.
Do not install the transducer where
noise or air bubbles is present.
Performance will be affected.
CAUTION
The transducer cable must be
handled carefully, following the
guidelines below.
•Keep fuels and oils away from the
cable.
•Locate the cable where it will not be
damaged.
•The cable sheath is made of chloro-
phrene or polychloride vinyl, which
are easily by damaged plastic
solvents such as toulene. Locate the
cable well away from plastic
solvents.

1. MOUNTING
1.1 Display Unit
Mounting considerations
• Locate the unit out of direct sunlight.
• Select a location where the display screen can be easily observed while operating the control
panel.
• Leave sufficient space around the unit for maintenance and servicing. Recommended mainte-
nance space appears in the outline drawings at the back of this manual.
• Observe the compass safe distances on page ii to prevent deviation of a magnetic compass.
The display unit can be mounted on the tabletop or on the panel (flush mounting). Mount the unit,
referring to the outline drawings at the back of this manual.
The power cable is connected to the terminal board in the display unit. Therefore the power cable
can not be disconnected easily like a connector. So connect the cable to a dedicated breaker in
the power distributor in the ship.
NOTICE
Do not apply paint, anti-corrosive sealant
or contact spray to coating or plastic
parts of the equipment.
Those items contain organic solvents that
can damage coating and plastic parts,
especially plastic connectors.
WARNING
Turn off the power at the switchboard
before beginning the installation.
Connect to a dedicated breaker in
the power distributor.
Fire or electrical shock can result if
the power is left on.

2
1.2 Transducer
The performance of the echo sounder depends upon the transducer position. A place least affect-
ed by air bubbles should be selected since turbulence blocks the sounding path. Further, select a
place least influenced by engine noise. It is known that air bubbles are fewest at the place where
the bow first falls and the next wave rises, at usual cruising speed.
Note: The face of the transducer must be facing the sea bottom in normal cruising trim of the boat.
1.3 Water Temperature/Speed Sensor
Through-hull mount water temperature/speed sensor ST-02MSB, ST02-PSB
Select a suitable mounting location considering the following:
• Select a mid-boat flat position. The sensor does not have to be installed perfectly perpendicu-
lar. The sensor must not be located where it might get damaged in dry-docking operation.
• Select a place apart from equipment generating heat.
• Select a place in the forward direction viewing from the drain hole, to allow for circulation of
cooling water.
• Select a place free from vibration.
1. Dry-dock the boat.
2. Make a hole of approx. 51 mm diameter.
3. Unfasten locknut and remove the flange of the sensor.
4. Apply high-grade sealant to the flange of the sensor.
5. Pass the sensor casing through the hole.
6. Face the notch on the sensor toward boat's bow and tighten the flange.
7. Set the sensor section to the sensor casing and tighten the locknut.
8. Launch the boat and check for water leakage around the sensor.

2.2 Cable Fabrication
Power cable
This echo sounder is designed to be powered with 12-24 VDC. Use the cable DPYCY-1.5 (Japan
Industry Standard) or equivalent.
Transducer cable
Separate the transducer cable well away from power cables to prevent interference. Connect the
cable to the transducer port (for high frequency and/or low frequency) at the rear of the display
unit. Fabricate the cable as below.

3.2.2 How to enter transducer data by transducer specifications
(manual setting)
To connect the transducers which are not programmed, do as follows:
Note: The transducers of 53 - 65 kHz, 111 to 139 kHz and 171 - 183 kHz cannot be connected to
