Radar Sonics Depth Transducer - Wiring Diagram

[Mick]

I have a Radar Sonics through hull transducer installed and I am looking at
wiring it to a new sounder. Anyone know where I can source a diagram? My
transducer has five wires = Blue, Black, unshielded, Brown and white.

Airmar makes depth sounder transducers for most sounder manufacturers,
and they have wiring diagrams for their transducers on their website.

Thanks Peter, Airmar have been fabulous in trying to help. I realy don't
want to replace the existing through hull transducer as it is a moored boat.

I am baffled by the lack of knowledge within retail marine suppliers in
Australia with regard to a simple issue of supply of plugs to connect
transducers to different sounders. I had at least five shops tell me I
could not buy a plug to connect a transducer to a Garmin sounder!!!

I sourced an Airmar plug through Markwell Marine in Queensland (Australia).
They were great also. I have connected the Radarsonics transducer to the
GPSmap 238 and all is great!

It was hard work though.
