Vexilar LC-8 - Manual (Page 4)

INSTALLATION
To make the LC-8 work, you must provide the unit with power
and mount the transducer in an appropriate location.
UNIT INSTALLATION
Find a convenient place
to mount the unit. This may
include a boat seat, deck,
dash, or a portable case.
Make sure that there is plen-
ty of room for the unit to tilt
and swivel freely without
the cables binding behind
the unit. Once you have
found a spot, securely attach
the bracket to the mounting
surface.
POWER CONNECTION
Plug the round 3 pin connector into the back of the unit. Find the
closest source of 12 volts and run the cord to it. Keep the cord away
from sharp metal edges and avoid tight places where the cord may get
crushed. Connect the white wire to positive and the black wire to
negative or ground. If the cord provided is not long enough, more can
be added. Use 18 gauge wire minimum. It is recommended that the
1 amp in-line fuse be placed in the positive line as close to the power
source as possible to protect against any shorts in the wiring.
