1. MOUNTING
1.1 Mounting Considerations
When selecting a mounting location for NavNet TZtouch2, keep the following in mind:
The temperature at the mounting location shall be between -15°C and +55°C.
The humidity at the mounting location shall be 93% or less at 40°C.
Locate the unit away from exhaust pipes and ventilators.
The mounting location should be well ventilated.
Mount the unit where shock and vibration are minimal (compliant with IEC 60945
Ed.4).
Keep the unit away from electromagnetic field generating equipment such as
motors and generators.
For maintenance and checking purposes, leave sufficient space around the unit and
leave slack in cables. Minimum recommended space is shown in the outline
drawing for the display units.
Do not mount the NavNet TZtouch2 on the overhead.
A magnetic compass will be affected if the equipment is placed too close to it.
Observe the compass safe distances shown in the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS to
prevent disturbance to the magnetic compass.
Mount the unit in a location where the internal GPS antenna can transmit and
receive GPS data without obstruction. Where this is not possible, connect the
NavNet TZtouch2 to an external GPS antenna, such as the GP-330B, via a
NMEA2000 network.
The NavNet TZtouch2 can be flush mounted in a console or panel, or mounted on a
desktop.
When removing the equipment
If the equipment is removed from the vessel, cover the connector of the cable with the
supplied cap to keep dust out of the connector.

1.2 Flush Mounting
There are two methods of flush mount installation. One method uses pilot holes to se-
cure the panel at the installation location (Method B), the other method does not use
pilot holes (Method A). The merits and demerits of each method is listed in the table
below.
Referring to the figure below, select a flat mounting location. Read the installation in-
structions before starting. Pay particular attention to the notes; failure to follow these
instructions may cause damage to the unit.
Note: Ensure the mounting location is flat, with no indents or protrusions, to allow a
secure fit.
1.2.1 Method A: Pilot holes cannot be opened.
1. Prepare a cutout in the mounting location using the template (supplied) for the
NavNet TZtouch2.
2. Fasten the wing bolts and the wing nuts of the flush mount fixture so that the pro-
tector for screw moves to the flush mount fixture.
Note: Slowly fasten the four wing bolts evenly with your hand. Do not use a tool
to fasten the wing bolts. A tool can be used to fasten the wing nuts; use caution
so as not to damage the wings or thread.

1.5 Installation of Transducers
Note: For instructions regarding installation of DFF-3D transducers, see the DFF-3D
operator’s manual.
1.5.1 How to mount a transducer through the hull
Transducer mounting location
The thru-hull mount transducer provides the best performance of all, since the
transducer protrudes from the hull and the effect of air bubbles and turbulence near
the hull skin is reduced. If your boat has a keel, the transducer should be at least 30
cm away from it.
The performance of this fish finder is directly related to the mounting location of the
transducer, especially for high-speed cruising. The installation should be planned in
advance, keeping the length of the transducer cable and the following factors in mind:
Air bubbles and turbulence caused by movement of the boat seriously degrade the
sounding capability of the transducer. The transducer should, therefore, be located
in a position where water flow is the smoothest. Noise from the propellers also
adversely affects performance and the transducer should not be mounted nearby.
The lifting strakes are notorious for creating acoustic noise, and these must be
avoided by keeping the transducer inboard of them.
The transducer must always remain submerged, even when the boat is rolling,
pitching or up on a plane at high speed.
A practical choice would be somewhere between 1/3 and 1/2 of your boat's length
from the stern. For planing hulls, a practical location is generally rather far astern,
so that the transducer is always in water regardless of the planing attitude.
Within the wetted bottom area
Deadrise angle within 15°
Position 1/2 to 1/3 of the hull from stern.

Installation procedure
1. With the boat hauled out of the water, mark the location chosen for mounting the
transducer on the bottom of the hull.
2. If the hull is not level within 15° in any direction, fairing blocks made out of teak
should be used between the transducer and hull, both inside and outside, to keep
the transducer face parallel with the water line. Fabricate the fairing block as
shown below and make the entire surface as smooth as possible to provide an
undisturbed flow of water around the transducer. The fairing block should be
smaller than the transducer itself to provide a channel to divert turbulent water
around the sides of the transducer rather than over its face.
3. Drill a hole just large enough to pass the threaded stuffing tube of the transducer
through the hull, making sure it is drilled vertically.
4. Apply a sufficient amount of high quality caulking compound to the top surface of
the transducer, around the threads of the stuffing tube and inside the mounting
hole (and fairing blocks if used) to ensure watertight mounting.
5. Mount the transducer and fairing blocks and tighten the locknut. Be sure that the
transducer is properly oriented and its working face is parallel to the waterline.
Note: Do not over-stress the stuffing tube and locknut through excessive tightening,
since the wood block will swell when the boat is placed in the water. It is suggested
that the nut be tightened lightly at installation and re-tightened several days after the
boat has been launched.

Transducer preparation
Before putting your boat in water, wipe the face of the transducer thoroughly with a
detergent liquid soap. This will lessen the time necessary for the transducer to have
good contact with the water. Otherwise the time required for complete "saturation" will
be lengthened and performance will be reduced.
DO NOT paint the transducer. Performance will be affected.
1.5.2 Transom mount transducer
The optional transom mount transducer is very commonly employed, usually on
relatively small I/O or outboard boats. Do not use this method on an inboard motor
boat because turbulence is created by the propeller ahead of the transducer.
DO NOT over-tighten screws, to prevent damage to the transducer.
Installation procedure
A suitable mounting location is at least 50 cm away from the engine and where the
water flow is smooth.
1. Drill four pilot holes for self-tapping screw (5u20) in the mounting location.
2. Coat the threads of the self-tapping screws (5x14) for the transducer with marine
sealant for waterproofing. Attach the transducer to the mounting location with the
self-tapping screws.
3. Adjust the transducer position so the transducer faces right to the bottom. If
necessary, to improve water flow and minimize air bubbles staying on the
transducer face, incline the transducer about 5° at the rear. This may require a
certain amount of experimentation for fine tuning at high cruising speeds.
4. Tape the location shown in the figure below.
5. Fill the gap between the wedge front of
the transducer and transom with ep-
oxy material to eliminate any air spac-
es.
6. After the epoxy hardens, remove the tape.

1.5.3 How to mount a transducer inside the hull
The transducer may also be installed inside the hull on FRP boats. However, this
installation method affects the ability to detect the bottom, fish and other objects
because the ultrasound pulse is weakened when it passes through the hull.
Note: This mounting method should not be used to mount the transducer that
supports the RezBoost
, ACCU-FISH
and/or bottom discrimination display feature,
since
performance is greatly degraded.
Necessary tools
The following tools are required:
Remarks on installation
Installation procedure
The attenuation of the ultrasound pulse varies with the thickness of the hull. Select a
location where attenuation is the lowest.
1. Select 2-3 locations considering the four points mentioned below.
2. Decide the most suitable site from the locations selected.
1) Connect the power cable and transducer cable to the display unit.
• Sandpaper (#100)
• Marine sealant
Water-filled plastic bag
Do the installation with the ship moored at a dock, etc. The water depth should be
6.5 to 32 feet (2 to 10 meters).
Turn off the engine.
Do not power the unit with the transducer in the air, to prevent damage to the
transducer.
Do not use this method on a double layer hull.
Before attaching the transducer to the hull, check that the site is suitable, by following
steps 1 to 3 in the installation procedure below.
Mount the transducer at a location 1/2 to 1/3 of the length of your boat from the
stern.
The mounting location is between 15 to 50 cm from the centerline of the hull.
Do not place the transducer over hull struts or ribs which run under the hull.
Avoid a location where the rising angle of the hull exceeds 15°, to minimize the
effect of the boat's rolling.

2) Put the transducer into water-filled plastic bag.
Press the transducer against the chosen site.
3) Tap (power switch) to turn the power on.
4) After the startup procedure completes (approx.
90 seconds), the last used display appears.
Tap the [Home] icon ( ) to
show the home screen and display mode
settings. See section 3.3 for how to use the
menu.
5) Drag the menu to show [Sounder] in the menu, then tap [Sounder].
6) Drag the [Sounder] menu to show the [SOUNDER INITIAL SETUP] menu.
7) Tap [Fish Finder Source].
8) Confirm the available fish finder from the list of available sounders, then tap
the appropriate fish finder. For the purpose of this example, the default setting
[TZTL] (internal sounder) is selected as the source.
9) Tap the [<] icon to return to the [Sounder] menu
10) Drag the [Sounder] menu to show the [SOUNDER INITIAL SETUP] menu.
11) Tap [Transducer Setup].
12) Tap [Transducer Setup Type].
13) Tap [Model], then tap the [<] icon to return to [Transducer Setup] menu.
14) Tap [Model Number], drag the menu to show your transducer model, then tap
the transducer model number.
15) Tap the [<] icon twice to return to the [Sounder] menu, then drag the [Sounder]
to show the [SOUNDER INITIAL SETUP] menu.
16) At the [Transmission Power] menu item, set the transmission power to a level
of [2].
17) Drag the menu to show [Sounder Transmit], then tap [Sounder Transmit].
Check if the bottom echo appears on the right side of the screen, in the display
area.
If no bottom echo appears, repeat the procedure unit a suitable location is
found.
3. Remove the transducer from the plastic bag and wipe the face of transducer with
a cloth to remove water and any foreign material. Lightly roughen the face with
#100 sandpaper. Also, use the sandpaper to roughen the inside of the hull where
the transducer is to be mounted.
4. Wipe off any sandpaper dust from the face of the transducer.
