Apelco xcd 350 Transducer Plug Pinout

I have a working xcd 350 and bronze thru hull with depth, speed and temp. This is working ok. but the display is kind of poor, few pixels.

What I want to know is the wiring pinout. It is a seven pin config in a circle, no center pin.
I used Raymarine tech support but have heard nothing back. I would like to know to reuse the transducer for a different unit.

I went to Airmar and did find a similar looking plug, it is here called 7F-Airmar
but who knows what Apelco did with the hookup, if it is the same or not.

Does anyone know how to figure out the plug wiring?

this is for the 7F-Airmar which looks like the xcd-350 plug

Re: apelco xcd 350 transducer plug pinout

The Apelco XCD 350 uses differing Airmar transducers, depending upon mounting type.
See the chart ➥ http://www.c-trak.net/ctrak/Download...References.pdf
Then go to Airmar's wiring diagrams.
