Connect the transducer cable and the power cable.
Connect the cable from the temperature sensor (if applicable).
Install a two-wire cable for remote on/off of the GPT’s.
Interfaces
Ethernet
An Ethernet cable must be used between the transceiver and the
computer if your system includes a General Purpose Transceiver
(GPT).
If only one GPT is used, you need a twisted pair cable with
swapped receive and transmit wires. The cable is connected
between the GPT and the echo sounder’s Operator Station.
An Ethernet hub is required if your system includes more than
one General Purpose Transceiver.
Note Straight through ethernet cable must be used.
Serial lines
Connect navigation receiver, trawl system and heave sensor with
serial line output to the rear of the echo sounder computer using
RS-232 cables. Heave sensors with an analog output are
connected directly to the Auxiliary connector of the nearest
transceiver.
Synchronization
Synchronous transmission is desirable if there are several echo
sounders onboard the vessel. For every echo sounder and every
transceiver onboard the ship, connect the appropriate pins at the
Auxiliary connectors together using a two-wire cable.
