POWER
CONNECTIONS
The UltraNav
I! works
from a
twelve-volt
battery system.
For the
best
results,
attach the
power cable
directly
to the
battery.
You can
attach the
power
cable to an
accessory
or
power
buss,
however
you
may
have
problems
with electrical
interference.
Therefore,
ifs saferto
go
ahead and
attach the
powercable
direotlytothe battery.
If
the cable
istoo
short,
splice
#18
gauge
wire
onto it. The
power
cable has
four
wires; red, black,
green,
and white. Red is
the
positive
lead,
black is
negative
or
ground.
Make
certain to
attach the in-line
fuse holder to the
red lead as
close to the
power
source as
possible.
For
example,
if
you
have to extend the
power
cable to
the
battery
or
power buss,
attach one
end of the fuse
holder
directly
to the
battery
or
power
buss.
This will
protect
both the unit and
the
power
cable
in the event of
a short.
The UltraNav
II uses a
3-amp
fuse. There is
reverse
polarity protection
built into
the UltraNav II.
If the
power
wires are
connected
backwards,
no
damage
will occur to
the unit.
IMPORTANT!
Do not use
this
product
without a
3-amp
fuse wired into the
power
cable!
Failure to use
a
3-amp
fuse will void
your
warranty.
If
you're
installing
an
optional
speed/temperature sensor,
read the
speed/
temperature
sensor's
installation
manual for
mounting
instructions.
Route
the
sensor's cable to
the UltraNav
Il's
power
cable and
plug
it
into the
connector marked
"SPEED/TEMP CABLE'
The
plotter display
automatically
shows a .1
mile
display
in
the Man
Overboard mode. Your
position
when
the Marl
Overboard
key
was
pressed
is
shown
by
the "S' with a circle
and
by
the
waypoint
icon with a
"0" Steer
to the
waypoint flag
to
get
back to the
position
saved when the
Man
Overboard
key
was
pressed.
IMPORTANT!
The UltraNav II
doesn't save the Man Overboard
position
in the
waypoint
table.
However,
it does save
the
position
on the Man
Overboard
screen.
The UltraNav II

shows
navigation
datato
the

Overboard
key again,
it will
still show

screen,
the UltraNavIl
stops
navigating
to the recalled
waypomnt.
Remember,
saving
the victim is the
primary goal.
Try
all
options
to rescue
the
person immediately
after the accident
happens.
Training
and educa-
tion are also
good
accident
preventatives.
The
Coast Guard has
excellent
safety
courses. Instruct all
members on board
your
boat on
safety
procedures
before
leaving
the dock. Make certain all on board
know what
to do before
any
emergency
occurs.
