Minnkota ?

Got a new Ulterra with I-link.  There is a direction sensor that needs to be mounted and powered.  Says not to mount too close to other wires, batteries, electronics or ferrous metals.  My boat is 1800 Lund Tyee.  Does this thing need to be out in the open or can you mount out of site?  Directions do not state anything about this.  Anyone else deal with this or have a good spot for it?

That's where I put mine I'm hoping it works.

Thanks trout.  Did you get power from trolling or starting batteries?

[Trout26]

Starting battery. I have tried it out a couple times now and everything works good with it there

Always a good idea to power off the starting batt. Some times you get interference if powered off the trolling batt.
