USING
-
Please do not put the display on ground during the operation, which could cause a short R/C distance.
It is recommended to install the monitor on a tripod, which can ensure that the monitor is at least 1.2 meters above the ground. -
Make sure the antenna is tighten on the boat, otherwise the R/C distance will be greatly shorten

WHAT’S ON THE DISPLAY
MENU OPERATION
In most cases, the default setting is sufficient. However, in some situations you may need to adjust the menu setting to get the best performance on the system.
Sensitivity
Sets how the echoes are displayed on the screen. If you increase the
sensitivity, you can see more details on the screen.
In deep water, increase the sensitivity. In shallow water, on the other hand,
decrease the sensitivity
How to set the Sensitivity?
- Press MENU key, and go to “Sensitivity”.
- Press ENT key to conform the selection.
- Press UP/DOWN key to increase/decrease the value.
- Press ENT key to confirm the setting.
Surface clarify
Wave action, boat waves and temperature inversions can cause interference on the screen near the surface. The surface clarification option reduces surface interference by reducing the sensitivity of the receiver near the surface.
Fish ID Sens.
Fish ID. Sens. adjust the threshold of fish size display. Selecting a higher setting allows weak returns being displayed as fish, which is helpful especially when you are intending to find smaller fish species or bait fish. Selecting a low setting will prevent weak sonar returns being displayed as fish, which will be very helpful when you are seeking large species of fish. Note: If you hope to find big fish, please set the value to 1. However, if you hope to find all the fish, including small ones, set the value to 9
Sonar Gain
The gain controls the sensitivity of the hardware receiver. A higher gain
makes the sonar more sensitive to echo returns, allowing it to display weaker
targets.
If the gain is set too high, the image might be cluttered with background
noise.
Radio Bind
For the TF520, each Sonar Box has an “Identity Card”. It only can relate to one monitor.
And for all TF520s that were sold, the authorisation process was done in advance by Toslon. However, in some cases you may mix the monitor and the Sonar Box. Then you need do the radio bind as following instruction:
- Enter “Radio Bind” menu, a message is shown to remind you to power on the Sonar Box.
- Power on the Sonar Box, the device will make radio bind automatically.
Note: before making Radio Bind, please power off the Sonar Box in advance.
