Refer to the foflowing list to determine whether a second ring main is necessary. Chapter 2: Transducer Installation 2. 1 Connection to the Control Head The depth transducer is supplied, as standard, with a through hull fling and 14m (45ftI of cable. The cable is equipped with a SeaTalk connector that plugs into a control head connector. Cable run upto 10m (3%) Single connection: Second connection: Single connection: Second connection: 13 instruments maximum 26 instruments maximum 7 instruments maximum 13 instruments maximum Cable run upto 20m (66ft) The second ringmain should be connected to the spare lead on the last instrument in the chain and directed back to the circuit breaker. 1. 7 Connection to SeaTalk Compatible Autopilots If the installation includes a SeaTalk compatible Autopilot the ST50 instru ments may be connected to the SeaTalk bus at any point. No independent connection to the 12V power supply is necessary as the instruments receive power from the Autopilot course computer. 2. 2 Transducer Selection The type of depth transducer used is governed by the hull material.
