To install the Garmin Striker Vidvid Fishfinder on your boat, please follow the steps outlined in the owner's manual. Here is a complete guide on how to install the fishfinder:
1. Determine the mounting location: Choose a suitable location on your boat's console or dashboard where the fishfinder will be easily accessible and provide a clear view of the display.
2. Prepare the mounting surface: Ensure that the mounting surface is clean and dry. If necessary, use a mild detergent and water to clean the area. Allow it to dry completely before proceeding.
3. Attach the mounting bracket: Use the provided screws and a screwdriver to secure the mounting bracket to the chosen location. Ensure that it is securely fastened.
4. Connect the transducer: Attach the transducer to the transducer cable. Place the transducer in the water, preferably in a location where it will be fully submerged while the boat is in motion. Ensure that the transducer is securely mounted and positioned correctly according to the instructions in the manual.
5. Connect the power cable: Connect the power cable to the fishfinder unit. Route the cable to the power source, ensuring that it is properly secured and protected from damage.
6. Connect other cables (if applicable): Depending on your setup, you may need to connect additional cables such as a GPS antenna or NMEA 2000 network. Refer to the manual for specific instructions on connecting these cables.
7. Secure the fishfinder unit: Attach the fishfinder unit to the mounting bracket by aligning the unit's mounting holes with the bracket's mounting screws. Slide the unit onto the bracket until it locks into place.
8. Power on the fishfinder: Connect the power cable to a suitable power source, such as a boat battery. Turn on the fishfinder by pressing the power button.
9. Configure settings: Follow the instructions in the manual to configure the fishfinder settings according to your preferences. This may include adjusting the display settings, selecting a language, or setting up sonar features.
10. Test the fishfinder: Once the installation is complete, take your boat out on the water and test the fishfinder's functionality. Ensure that it is providing accurate sonar readings and displaying the information you need.
