Portable Sonar Installation
Like many Eagle products, the FishEasy 240 sonar is capable of port-

able operation. It uses the optional PPP-12 portable power pack.
The power pack and portable transducers expand the uses for your so-

nar. You can use your FishEasy 240 sonar unit on your boat or take it

to the dock, on a float tube, on an ice fishing trip or use it as a second

sonar in a friend's boat.
The PPP-12 package includes the power pack, battery adapter and a port-

able transducer. The transducer can be stored inside the power pack. The

PPP-12 requires eight AA alkaline batteries. Batteries are not included.
To use a portable power pack, you simply install the batteries and then

attach the sonar unit to the power pack's bracket. Plug in the

power/transducer cable and you're ready to fish.
The PPP-12 has a quick-release mounting bracket built into the case.
Installing the Batteries
Release the latch on the front of the power pack case. Open the com-

partment and install eight AA batteries into the adapter. For the long-

est life, we recommend you use alkaline batteries.

NOTE:

When the unit is not in use, we recommend you unplug the power

connector to reduce the possibility of corrosion or battery drain.

When you store the unit, always remove the batteries because dead

batteries can leak and corrode the contacts.

After installing the batteries, close the case and plug the sonar unit's

power cable into the socket on the power pack case.
