Connecting Universal Sonar
Your trolling motor is pre-installed with a Universal Sonar transducer system. Universal Sonar is a 2D sonar transducer with a
temperature sensor that is integrated into the lower unit of the trolling motor. It has an operating frequency of 83/200 kHz.
Connecting this transducer to a compatible fish finder* gives you a 2D sonar view of what is happening directly below your
trolling motor. The integrated design protects the transducer from underwater hazards, and prevents tangles and damage to the
transducer cables.
In certain situations, air bubbles may adhere to the surface of the Universal Sonar transducer, and effect the performance. If this
happens simply wipe the surface of the transducer with your finger.
All Universal Sonar motors are equipped with an internal bonding wire, incorrect rigging will cause sonar interference and can
damage your trolling motor, electronics and other boat accessories. Please refer to the Battery & Wiring Installation and Motor
Wiring Diagram sections of this manual for correct rigging instructions.
NOTE:
Universal Sonar only provides 2D sonar that operates at 83/200 kHz. It does not support imaging screens
that require higher frequencies such as 455 kHz or 800 kHz (Down Imaging, Side Imaging, etc.). Down Imaging (DI)
specific units are not compatible with Universal Sonar. See compatibility chart for a list of compatible fish finders at
minnkotamotors.com. *Requires an adapter that is sold separately. For a current list of compatible fish finders and the
correct adapter cable, please visit minnkotamotors.com.
