7 Section 2: Installation & Accessories Power The iFINDER operates from AA batteries or on 3 volts DC using an optional external power cable with a cigarette lighter adapter. When the power cable is used, the iFINDER automatically switches to it if the external power is greater than the battery voltage.
8 shown in the following images. Once the latch is released, pull the bat- tery cover up out of the grooves in the bottom of the case. Remove iFINDER battery cover. Install the batteries according to the embossed signs in the battery com- partment, which shows the correct polarity.
9 in the following image. A small clip on the connector should hold the connector in place. Attach external power cable to iFINDER. WARNING: Do not remove the cigarette lighter adapter and splice the exposed wires directly to a 12-volt power system.
10 Attach headphone adapter to iFINDER. NMEA Cable Connections NMEA is a standard communications format for marine electronic equipment. For example, an autopilot can connect to the NMEA interface on this unit and receive positioning information. The unit can exchange information with any device that transmits or receives NMEA 0183 data.
11 NOTE: Throughout this manual, we will use the term MMC, but just re- member that your unit can use an MMC or SD card to store data. Both of these solid-state flash memory devices are about the size of a postage stamp. An SD card is slightly thicker than an MMC.
12 4. Press down on the center of the label and slide the card to the right. Add an MMC Card. 5. Turn the plastic rotating card lock until it holds the card firmly in place, with the grip parallel to the direction of the batteries. 6. Replace the batteries and battery cover.
