3.2 Mounting the remote control panel (master)

The remote control panel can be mounted where desired using appropriate marine grade mounting hardware. For water-

resistant installation, some type of gasketing (neoprene sheet, silicone sealant, etc.) must be used. In all cases, the

remote control panel should be mounted in a protected area. Refer to Figure 2 for mounting and wiring details.

3.5 Installing a second remote control panel (slave)

The second remote control panel is optional. This section refers to Product No. 1942 only.

The second Remote Control Panel may be mounted similarly to the first. The second remote control panel is wired parallel

to the first remote control panel. Connect cable to sockets on back of control panels. The master panel should have cable

plugged into top socket row 2. The slave panel should have the cable plugged into bottom socket row 1 (refer to Figure 5).
