Note 3: In the dual frequency display, the range for the low and high frequencies can be adjusted mutually or independently. Turn on Split Range in the Range menu to enable independent adjustment.

1.6 Shifting the Range
The basic range and range shifting functions used together give you the means to select the depth you can see on the screen. The basic range can be thought of as providing a “window” into the water column and range shifting as moving the “window” to the desired depth.
Window can be shifted up and down to select starting depth.
Display Note: This function is inoperative when the Auto mode is active. 1. Press S or T on the SHIFT key to show
the Shift setting window.
2. Use S or T on the SHIFT key to select the amount of shift desired.
3. Press the MENU/ESC key to close the window, or wait six seconds to automatically close it.
Note 1: The bottom echo may be lost if the amount of shift is greater than actual depth. Note 2: “Auto Shift,” which can be turned on from the Sounder menu, automatically shifts the range to keep the bottom echo on the screen. Note 3: You can set the shift value for each range independently, by turning on Free Shift in the Sounder menu.

1.7 Adjusting the Gain
The gain may be adjusted automatically (Fishing or Cruising) or manually. In automatic operation, the gain is automatically adjusted to display the bottom echo in reddish brown. If you need to lower the gain in automatic operation, use the gain offset feature. For manual adjustment, see paragraph 1.7.2. The Gain Area setting on the Sounder menu determines how gain is adjusted. For setting details, see Gain Area on page 22. The “Normal” setting is the conventional gain adjustment method; the gain setting affects only current echoes.
GAIN: 0 GAIN: 4

1.14 Adjusting TVG
A fish school at a deep depth is displayed in weak colors even if it is equal in strength to one in shallow waters. This is due to propagation attenuation of the ultrasonic wave. To compensate for this difference, use TVG. TVG automatically adjusts the gain with depth so that echoes of the same strength and different depths are shown in the same colors regardless of their depths. The gain is increased with depth to display echoes of equal strengths in the same colors. In the figure below, for example, the TVG is set for 100 m and the TVG level is adjusted. Then, unwanted echoes at a distance less than 100 m are deleted and echoes at depths greater than 100 m are not affected.

1.19 Fish Information (Accu Fish)
The Accu Fish feature, available with the transducer 50/200-1T, estimates fish length, displaying an appropriately sized fish symbol together with digital depth value or fish length. The information presented by this feature is intended for reference purposes only; it is not a completely accurate measurement of fish length.
1.19.1 Consideration for fish information
· If the indicated fish is different from the actual fish size, you can compensate for this on the Accu Fish menu.
· When Fish Symbols or Fish Info is enabled, 50 kHz and 200 kHz frequencies are transmitted alternately, even if a single frequency mode is in use.
· Fish within the zero line area are not measured.
· To reduce error, the detection area should be approx. 6 to 330 feet from the surface.

· This feature cannot be used with the insidehull transducer since fish may not be detected depending on the transducer’s frequency. Even if a fish is detected, the fish length indicated may be smaller than the actual length.
· In case of a fish school, echoes overlap one another, so the margin of error will be greater.
· The fish symbol indication is not shown when the bottom is not displayed on the screen.

Auto shift: Turn the auto shift feature on or off. Select Off to shift the display manually (with S or T). On automatically tracks the bottom echo to keep it on the bottom half of the display. For example, the distance to the bottom is 350 ft and the range is set to 0-60 ft. Then, auto shift automatically places the bottom echo on the display, without changing the range. “AUTO S” appears at the upper left corner when auto shift is active. S and T are inoperative when auto shift is active.

Note 1: Auto shift is inoperative when auto range is active.
Note 2: The bottom echo must be displayed in reddish brown or red in order for auto shift to function.
Freq. Choice: You can register up to four different frequencies for a single transducer, following the procedure in “Freq. Control” in the Sounder menu. Then, you select here the high and low frequencies to use. Note that Accu Fish must be turned off to use this feature.

3. Use S or T to select applicable frequency and press the ENTER key. The picture for the frequency selected here is shown on the display.
Freq Control: Four different transducer frequencies and frequency adjustment range are automatically set at installation. However, the range of frequency adjustment for each frequency may be different depending on installation characteristics. For example, for a 200 kHz frequency transducer, the default frequencies are 200 kHz, 196 kHz, 198 kHz and 204 kHz. If those frequencies are not suitable for your use, you can change them. Further, in case of a wide-bandwidth transducer, frequencies may be chosen from the available frequency range. This allows you to have multiple frequencies for a single transducer. For example, if you have the transducer 82B-35R, you can register frequencies between 66 kHz and 109 kHz. The frequencies registered here may be selected at Freq Choice in the Sounder menu.
Set transducer frequency keeping in mind these considerations.
· Set frequency which is suitable for detecting targeted fish.
· Shift frequency so as to reduce interference.
· Lower frequency to increase detection range.
· Raise frequency to improve resolution.

1. OPERATION
1.20.2 Tx/Rx menu
Max
Tx Power: Interference may appear on the screen when an echo sounder having the same frequency as your own is being operated in the vicinity of your vessel. In this case, lower your Tx power and contact the vessel to request them to reduce their Tx power. Tx power is available in Off, Min, 1-10, and Auto. Off turns off transmission. Min sets minimum Tx power. Auto automatically adjusts Tx power. 1-10 sets desired Tx power; the higher the value the more the Tx power. When Tx power is reduced (Off, Min, 1-9), the indication “P/R” appears at the top of the display. Note that Auto is automatically selected when Accu Fish is active. Tx Rate: Changes pulse repetition rate, in 20 levels. Normally, the highest rate (20) is used. When in shallow waters second reflection echoes may appear between surface and actual bottom echo. In this case, lower the Tx rate level. Max automatically changes the interval and pulse length with depth. S activates the ship’s speed dependent mode, where the TX rate changes automatically with ship’s speed. (Requires ship’s speed input.) Tx Pulse Edge (HF/LF): Turn on to suppress interference to other acoustic equipment (fish finders, scanning sonars, etc.), your own and others. Tx Pulse (HF/LF): Pulse width changes according to range and shift values. When long range detection is your objective select a long pulse length. For better resolution, choose a shorter pulse. Short 1 raises the detection

resolution, however, detection range is shorter (pulse length is about 1/4 of Std) than the Std setting. Short 2 raises the detection resolution, however, detection range is shorter (pulse length is about 1/2 of Std) than the Std setting. Std is the standard pulse length, and is suitable for general use. Long Increases the detection range but lowers the resolution (about 1/2 compared to the Std pulse length). Manual enables manual setting of pulse length, at “Pulse Length.”
Pulse Length (HF/LF): Operative when Manual is selected at Tx Pulse. A small value gives better detection resolution, however detection range is shorter. On the other hand, a large value gives better detection range but resolution is lower. The setting range is 0.05 5.0 (msec).
Rx Band (LF/HF): Rx bandwidth is automatically set according to Tx pulse length. Normally the Std position provides good performance. If noise is a problem switch to Narrow. For better resolution, select Wide.
Target Echo: Set fishing objective. Normal is for general purpose fishing. Surface is for detecting surface fish. Pulse repetition rate is higher than “Normal” on the 1kW and 2kW transducers that are programmed into the menu. Squid detects squid and other individual fish. These items are automatically set: Tx Pulse, Short 1; Echo Stretch, ON, and Smoothing, Off. Deep Sea is the same as Normal.

About the mix display
The mix display compares echo intensity between low and high frequencies, and displays echoes from tiny fish in discriminative colors. This is done by utilizing the fact that tiny fish return a stronger echo against a high frequency rather than a low frequency. It works as follows.
· If a high frequency echo is stronger than the corresponding echo on the low frequency, the high frequency echo is displayed.
· If the low frequency echo is stronger than or equal to the high frequency echo, it is less likely to be a tiny fish and therefore is displayed in blue.
· If the echoes on both frequencies have the intensity corresponding to reddish-brown or red, they are displayed in reddish brown or red. This is necessary to display the zero line and bottom in reddish-brown or red.
· In other words, the echoes displayed in orange thru light-blue are considered to be tiny fish such as whitebait.

2. SYSTEM MENU
Bottom Level
In the default bottom level setting (0), the equipment judges consecutive strong echoes to be bottom echoes. If, in that setting, the depth indication is unstable, adjust the bottom level. If vertical lines extend upward from the bottom echo in the bottom lock display, lower the bottom level to erase the vertical lines. If the level is too low, however, it may be difficult to distinguish bottom fish from the bottom echo.
