I am going to install a Quantum WiFi Radar in conjunction with an existing A78. The instructions recommend connecting the Radar direct to the Battery. The system I am replacing is an old Pathfinder set up, in that system the power went to the MFD and the Radar Cable carried power from the MFD to the Radom. When I installed the A78 I used the existing power feed to the old Pathfinder unit. Would it be better to connect the new Quantum to that same feed? Regardless of the answer to
that question, should the Quantum be run through a switch to ensure it is off, the instructions talk about it going to sleep if not being used, I assume it would stay in sleep mode when not using the boat, is it drawing power in sleep mode?
