WARNING See the Important Safety and Product Information guide in the product box for product warnings and other important information. You are responsible for the safe and prudent operation of your vessel. Sonar is a tool that enhances your awareness of the water beneath your boat. It does not relieve you of the responsibility of observing the water around your boat as you navigate. CAUTION Failure to install and maintain this equipment in accordance with these instructions could result in damage or injury. Always wear safety goggles, ear protection, and a dust mask when drilling, cutting, or sanding. NOTICE When drilling or cutting, always check what is on the opposite side of the surface. This equipment must be installed by a qualified marine installer. Transducers A transducer is required to send and receive a sonar signal from the sounder. Proper transducer selection and installation are critical to the operation of the device. Because mounting locations vary, see your local Garmin dealer or contact Garmin Product Support for more information. Go to www.garmin.com /transducers to select a transducer. Installation Preparation NOTICE This device must be installed according to these instructions to get the best possible performance. If you experience difficulty with the installation, contact Garmin Product Support. Because every boat is different, you must carefully plan the GSD 26 sounder installation. 1 Select a mounting location. 2 Mount the sounder. 3 Connect the sounder to the Garmin Marine Network and to power. 4 Connect the sounder to the transducer. Tools Needed • Drill • #8 (5 mm) drill bit for mounting surface • 1 1/4 in. (32 mm) paddle drill bit or hole saw for mounting surface • #2 Phillips screwdriver • 3 mm flat screwdriver • Cable ties (optional) • Wire cutter • Wire stripper • 1 in. (24 mm) and 19/32 in. (15 mm) wrenches • Marine sealant (optional) Mounting the Sounder Mounting Location Considerations • The sounder must be mounted in a location where it cannot be submerged. August 2014 Printed in Taiwan 190-01821-02_0A • The sounder must be mounted in a location with adequate ventilation where it will not be exposed to extreme temperatures. • The sounder should be mounted so that the LEDs are visible. • The sounder should be mounted so that the power and network cables can be easily connected. • The sounder should be mounted so that the transducer cable can be connected. If required, transducer extension cables are available through your Garmin dealer. Mounting the Device NOTICE If you are mounting the bracket on fiberglass with screws, it is recommended to use a countersink bit to drill a clearance counterbore through only the top gel-coat layer. This will help to avoid any cracking in the gel-coat layer when the screws are tightened. Stainless-steel screws may bind when screwed into fiberglass and overtightened. Garmin recommends applying an anti-seize lubricant to the screws before installing them. Before you mount the device, you must select a mounting location and determine the mounting hardware needed for the surface. NOTE: Mounting hardware is included with the device, but it may not be suitable for the mounting surface. 1 Place the device in the mounting location and mark the location of the pilot holes. Drill the appropriate pilot hole for one corner of the device. 2 3 Loosely fasten the device to the mounting surface with one corner and examine the other three pilot-hole marks. Mark new pilot-hole locations if necessary, and remove the 4 device from the mounting surface. 5 Drill the appropriate pilot holes for the other three marks. 6 Secure the device to the mounting location. 6 Repeat steps 4 and 5 for the network cable, and connect the device to a transducer (Connecting the Device to a Transducer or Sensor) . 7 Select an option: • If your boat is equipped with a GMS 10 network port expander, connect the network cable to an available port on the GMS 10. • If your boat is not equipped with a GMS 10 network port expander, connect the network cable directly to the network port on your chartplotter. Cable Routing Grommets When routing cables through your boat, it may be necessary to drill holes to route the cables. Cable routing grommets can be used to cover cable installation holes. You can purchase grommets from your Garmin dealer or directly from Garmin at www.garmin.com . Connecting the Device to a Transducer or Sensor NOTICE You must install cord grip plugs in any unused cord grip to make sure water cannot enter the transducer wiring block area and damage the sounder. The terminal blocks are not removable. Preparing the Cable 1 Remove the terminal block lid from the sounder. 2 Select an option: • Feed a sensor cable through the small cord grip À, and pull the cable into the terminal block area. • Feed a transducer cable through one of the large cord grips Á on the housing, and pull the cable into the terminal block area. NOTE: Do not tighten the cord grip. Connecting the Sounder WARNING When connecting the power cable, do not remove the in-line fuse holder. To prevent the possibility of injury or product damage caused by fire or overheating, the appropriate fuse must be in place as indicated in the product specifications. In addition, connecting the power cable without the appropriate fuse in place will void the product warranty. NOTICE Do not force a cable into its port. Forcing the cable can damage the pins. If the cable is properly aligned, the cable should connect easily. Before you connect the sounder to the network, power, and the transducer, you must mount the sounder (Mounting the Sounder) . 1 Route the cables using the appropriate tie wraps, fasteners, and sealant to secure the cables along the route and through any bulkheads or the deck. 2 Install the locking rings on the marine network and power cables (Installing Locking Rings on the Cables) . 3 Connect the bare-wire end of the power cable to a 12 Vdc power source and to ground. 4 Align the notch on the end of the power cable with the power port on the device, and press the cable into place. 5 Tighten the locking ring. 2 Connecting the Wires to the Terminal Block Before you connect the wires, consult the wiring diagrams (Transducer Wiring Diagrams) to select the proper wiring configuration for your transducer and the wiring tables (Transducer Wire Color Tables) for specific examples of Garmin wire colors. 1 Connect the uninsulated section of each wire to the terminal block using a 3 mm flat screwdriver. 2 Connect the bare shield wire to one of the two ground posts under the terminal block using a #2 Phillips screwdriver. Securing the Wire Connections 1 After connecting the wires, use a 24 mm (1 in.) wrench to tighten the nut around the transducer cable. When tightened correctly, you should not be able to pull the transducer cable out of the housing. 2 Insert a cord grip plug into each unused cord grip. 3 Replace and secure the terminal block lid on the sounder with a #2 Phillips screwdriver. NOTE: The sounder does not operate when the lid is removed. Grounding the Sounder The chassis ground post is located on the exterior of the chassis, adjacent to a corner mounting hole. 1 Connect the chassis ground post to the boat water ground circuit. color tables (Transducer Wire Color Tables) for more information. The outer shield wire must connect to one of the two screw posts below the terminal block using the included ring crimp terminal. When connecting two single-element transducers, you must connect the second transducer to the duplicate set of connections on the right side of the terminal block. TIP: The primary transducer cable wire housing covers the wiring bundles. To identify the wiring groups in the bundles more easily, you can remove up to an inch of the cable housing. Single-Element CHIRP/Spread Spectrum 2 Mount the sounder (Mounting the Sounder) and connect the power, marine network, transducer, and sensors (Connecting the Sounder) . Dual-Element CHIRP/Spread Spectrum with Temperature and XID NOTE: The temperature and XID wires can be connected at either location. Installing Locking Rings on the Cables Before you install locking rings on the cables, you must route the cables. To help make the cable-routing process easier, the locking rings are packaged separately from the cables. Each locking ring is packaged in a small bag with a number on the label for easy identification. 1 Separate the two halves of the locking ring À. Dual-Element CHIRP/Spread Spectrum with XID NOTE: The XID wires can be connected at either location. 2 Align the two halves Á of the locking ring over the cable and snap them together. 3 Insert the o-ring  into the end of the connector. Transducer Wiring Diagrams NOTICE Connecting the high-frequency wires to the low-frequency terminal block, or the low-frequency wires to the high-frequency terminal block, damages the device and the transducer. Dual-Element CHIRP/Spread Spectrum with Separate Temperature Sensor NOTE: The temperature and XID wires can be connected at either location. You can use these diagrams to identify the connection points for your transducer wires on the GSD 26 terminal block.
