Powering Multiple Downriggers
When operating multiple Mag 20 DTs, run a
maximum of 2 downriggers per dedicated
battery. The advanced features of the Mag 20 DT
can keep the unit working virtually all the time. (See
below for the recommended wiring setup.)
NOTE: To ensure proper operation of your Mag
20 DT, ground its battery to your boat’s electrical
system’s ground. Malfunctions with the PIC,
communication between units, or loss of
operation result from faulty grounding. Always
check to see if your boat is properly grounded
first.
