The Raymarine Step A80479 mounting kit is a dedicated bracket designed for the RV-100 RealVision 3D transducer. It is intended for installation on horizontal surfaces or beneath the step (transom redan) of a stepped stern on vessels.

The main advantage of this mount is to optimize the performance of your RV-100 RealVision 3D transducer. It positions it in the calmest water area possible, away from the propellers, which minimizes turbulence and aeration. This ensures clearer and more accurate 3D, DownVision, and SideVision images.

The A80479 mounting bracket is supplied with the following items:

The step bracket (Hull / Step bracket)The required mounting fasteners (Fixings)The installation documentation

This A80479 mount is specifically designed for hulls with chines or installations on horizontal surfaces. It differs from the standard transom-mount brackets supplied with the RV-100 transducer (part A80464) and jack plate mounting kits (such as A80480), which are suited to other installation types.

This mount is compatible exclusively with the RAYMARINE RV-100 RealVision 3D depth sounder (part number A80464).

No, this mount is not suitable for boats where the transom is located behind the propellers. It is designed to be installed on a horizontal surface or under a stepped transom (step), in a calm water area.

No, the A80479 mount is designed specifically and exclusively for the RAYMARINE RV-100 RealVision 3D transducer. It is not compatible with other Raymarine transducer models.

For optimal performance, the mount must be installed on a horizontal surface, in a hull location with minimal turbulence and aeration. It is essential to mount it at a sufficient distance from the propellers to avoid their wake and away from elements that can create turbulence such as ribs, chines, rows of rivets, and strakes.

Yes, you must remove the RV-100 transducer from its original mounting bracket (the transducer hanger) before securing it to the A80479 step mount. It is recommended to store the original parts in a safe place in case you wish to reinstall the transducer on its standard bracket later.

You must use only neutral polyurethane sealants of marine-grade quality to seal mounting holes. It is critical to NOT use sealants containing acetate or silicone, as they can damage plastic components of the product.

The A80479 mount offers flexibility for routing the depth sounder cable. You can choose to install the transducer with the cable exiting toward the bow or the stern of the vessel. P-clips are provided to secure the cable routing.

Yes, if you have installed the transducer with the cable exiting toward the stern of your vessel, you must enable the 'Reverse Port/Starboard' option on your Raymarine multifunction display (MFD). This step is necessary for the depth sounder to correctly display port and starboard sonar returns on the sonar image. You will typically find this option in the menu: Menu > Settings > Transducer > Reverse Port/Starboard.

No, you must test and operate the depth sounder only when it is submerged in water. Do NOT operate it out of the water, as this could cause overheating and damage the device.

Yes, it is imperative to ensure that the vessel's electrical power is turned off before starting installation of this product. Never connect or disconnect the equipment when power is on unless explicitly stated otherwise in the documentation.

No, do not connect this device to a positive ground system.

No, the RV-100 transducer must be removed from any existing mount before being fixed to the A80479 mount. The installation process involves directly attaching the transducer to the dedicated step mount.

The cable locking collar is supplied separately. Here are the general steps to secure it:

Slide the locking collar onto the end of the connector.Slide the split ring onto the connector, using the supplied tool to expand it and push it into place.Slide the O-ring onto the connector, ensuring it is properly seated.Slide the locking collar toward the end of the plug and rotate it so the tabs align with the channels in the split ring.Pull the locking collar firmly toward the end of the plug until it clicks into place on the split ring, securing the connection.

Yes, Raymarine recommends installation by a Raymarine-certified installer. Certified installation may qualify for enhanced warranty benefits for the product.
