INSTALLATION - Bracket
You can install the unit on the top of a dash or from an overhead with the
supplied bracket. It can also be installed in the dash with an optional IDA-
3 or IDA-4 mounting kit. If you use the supplied bracket, you may be
interested in the optional GBSA-1 swivel bracket kit. This converts the
gimbal bracket to a swivel mount which can be used on the dash or
overhead mounting positions. Installation instructions for the in-dash and
swivel mounting kits are supplied with the adapter kits.
Mount the unit in any convenient location, provided there is clearance
when it’s tilted for the best viewing angle. Holes in the bracket’s base allow
wood screw or through bolt mounting. It may be necessary to place a piece
of plywood on the back side of thin panels to reinforce the panel. Make
certain there is enough room behind the unit to attach the power and
transducer cables.
Attach the unit to the gimbal bracket using the supplied gimbal knobs and
washers as shown above.
Drill a hole in the dash for the power and transducer cables. The best
location for this hole is immediately under the gimbal bracket. This way, the
bracket covers the hole. The smallest hole the power/transducer cable
connector can pass through is 5/8". Note: Install the transducer before
wiring the power cable!.After installing the transducer and power cables,
slide the bracket over the hole, then route the transducer and power cables
out the slot in the back of the bracket. Finally, fasten the bracket to the dash.
