FCV-1100 connecting a R299 transducer- OK?

I was looking for a separate sounder for deep dropping for swordfish. I had an FCV-1100 already on a shelf and I got a great deal on a R299.
I have it all installed and have questions on the wiring.
See pics.
I intend to wire:
low positive to #2 XDR+ (Blue/ White)
low negative to #4 XDR- (Black/ White)
High positive to #2 XDR+ (Blue)
High negative to #4 XDR- (Black)
Outer shield to #3 on Low and High?

I don't see where I program for 3kW in the FCV menu?

High positive to #2 XDR+ (Blue)
High negative to #4 XDR- (Black)

as you said, but each pack of LF and HF wires will normally have their own shield with the colored wires. Each transducer shield would normally go into the respective #3. If you have a newer transducer where Airmar changed the wire stock and don't have individual shields along with the transducer pairs, then yes I would split off the overall cable shield into both #3s.
