Podest montażowy do sondy tablicy RV-100 RealVision 3D

The Raymarine step mount A80479 is a mounting bracket specifically designed for the RV-100 RealVision 3D through-hull transducer. It is intended for installation on horizontal surfaces or beneath the step (transom notch) 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 an area of water that is as calm as 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 fasteners for installation (Fixings)
The installation documentation

This A80479 mount is specifically designed for hulls with chines or installations on horizontal surfaces. It differs from standard transom mounts 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 transducer (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 an area of calm water.

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

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

Yes, it is necessary to remove the RV-100 transducer from its original mounting bracket (the transducer’s hanger) before attaching it to the A80479 step bracket. It is recommended to keep the original parts in a safe place in case you want to reinstall the transducer on its standard bracket in the future.

You must use only neutral marine-grade polyurethane sealants to seal mounting holes. Do NOT use sealants containing acetate or silicone, as they can damage the product's plastic components.

The A80479 mount provides flexibility for routing the transducer cable. You can install the transducer with the cable exiting toward the bow (front) or the stern (rear) of the vessel. P-clips are supplied 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 setting is required for the depth sounder to correctly display port and starboard sonar returns on the sonar image. You will typically find this option in the following menu: Menu > Settings > Sonar > 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 while power is on unless explicitly stated otherwise in the documentation.

No, you must not connect this device to a system with a positive ground.

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

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

Slide the locking collar onto the end of the connector.Slide the split ring onto the connector, using the provided 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 of 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 product warranty benefits.
