SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
WARNING  
WARNING  
Radio Frequency  
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD  
Do not open the equipment.  
Radiation Hazard  
Only qualified personnel  
should work inside the  
equipment.  
The radar antenna emits electromagnetic  
radio frequency (RF) energy which can be  
harmful, particularly to your eyes. Never  
look directly into the antenna aperture from  
a close distance while the radar is in  
operation or expose yourself to the trans-  
mitting antenna at a close distance.  
Do not disassemble or modify the  
equipment.  
Fire, electrical shock or serious injury can  
result.  
Distances at which RF radiation levels of  
100 and 10 W/m2 exist are given in the  
table below.  
Immediately turn off the power at the  
switchboard if the equipment is emitting  
smoke or fire.  
Note: If the antenna unit is installed at a  
close distance in front of the wheel house,  
your administration may require halt of  
transmission within a certain sector of  
antenna revolution. This is possible - Ask  
your FURUNO representative or dealer to  
provide this feature.  
Continued use of the equipment can cause  
fire or electrical shock. Contact a FURUNO  
agent for service.  
Keep heater away from equipment.  
A heater can melt the equipment's power  
cord, which can cause fire or electrical  
shock.

SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONS  
All NavNet products incorporate a “network circuit board” to integrate each  
NavNet product on board through an optional LAN cable (Ethernet 10BASE-T).  
Each NavNet product is assigned an IP address to enable transfer of images  
between other NavNet products. For example, video plotter pictures can be  
transferred to a radar and vice versa. Pictures received via the NavNet may be  
adjusted at the receiving end.  
A NavNet system may consist of up to four display units and one ETR. For a  
system incorporating three or more products, a “hub” is required to process data.

Overview of display unit controls  
The radar systems are mainly operated with controls of the display unit (and  
remote controller). Ten keys are labeled and they provide the function shown on  
their labels. The five soft keys provide various functions according to current  
operating mode. The [ENTER] knob mainly functions to register selections on  
the menu and enter alphanumeric data. The cursor pad’s main function is to  
move the cursor across the screen. Whenever you operate a key, a single beep  
confirms operation. Invalid operation causes the unit to emit three beeps.

features your unit has to offer. It allows you to view and control a simulated  
plotter, radar and sounder picture, without position-fixing equipment, network  
radar or a network sounder. Most controls are operative, thus you may practice  
setting destination, enter waypoints, measure range and bearing to a target, etc.

2.4  
Adjusting the Gain  
The [GAIN] key adjusts the sensitivity of the radar receiver. It works in a manner  
similar to the volume control of a broadcast receiver, which amplifies received  
signals.  
The proper setting is such that the background noise is just visible on the screen.  
If your gain setting is too low, weak echoes may be missed. On the other hand  
excessive gain yields too much background noise; strong targets may be missed  
because of the poor contrast between desired echoes and the background noise  
on the display.

Reducing Sea Clutter  
2.5.1  
How the A/C SEA works  
Echoes from waves can be troublesome, covering the central part of the display  
with random signals known as “sea clutter”. The higher the waves and the higher  
the antenna is above the water, the further the clutter will extend. Sea clutter  
may affect radar performance because real targets are sometimes hidden by the  
echoes of small waves. (See the left-hand figure in the figure below.) When sea  
clutter masks the picture, adjust the A/C SEA to reduce the clutter.  
The A/C SEA reduces the amplification of echoes at short ranges (where clutter  
is the greatest) and progressively increases amplification as the range increases,  
so amplification will be normal at those ranges where there is no sea clutter.

5. When the radar source is the Model 1833/C series radar, A/C SEA and  
A/C RAIN can be automatically adjusted. Press the A/C AT soft key to select  
ON or OFF as appropriate. When turned on, it overrides A/C SEA and A/C  
RAIN settings.  
6. Press the [GAIN] key on the front panel or RETURN soft key to finish.  
2.6  
Reducing Precipitation Clutter  
The vertical beamwidth of the antenna is designed to see surface targets even  
when the ship is rolling. However, by this design the unit will also detect rain  
clutter (rain, snow, hail, etc.) in the same manner as normal targets. Precipitation  
clutter shows as random dots on the screen.  
2.6.1  
Adjusting the A/C RAIN  
When echoes from precipitation mask solid targets, adjust the A/C RAIN. This  
split up these unwanted echoes into a speckled pattern, making recognition of  
solid targets easier.  
1. Press the [GAIN] key.  
2. Press the A/C RAIN soft key to show the A/C RAIN window.

Adjusting the FTC  
To suppress rain clutter from heavy storms or scattered rain clutter, adjust the  
FTC. The FTC splits up these unwanted echoes into a speckled pattern, making  
recognition of solid targets easier.  
Note:In addition to reducing clutter, the FTC can be used in fine weather to  
clarify the picture when navigating in confined waters. However, with the  
circuit active the receiver is less sensitive. Therefore, turn off the FTC, by  
setting it for “0”, when its function is not required.  
FTC is available when the radar source is the MODEL1722 series radar.

2.14 Reducing Radar Interference  
Radar interference may occur when near another shipborne radar that is  
operating in the same frequency band as your radar. Its on-screen appearance  
looks like many bright dots either scattered at random or in the form of dotted  
lines extending from the center to the edge of the display. Interference effects  
are distinguishable from normal echoes because they do not appear in the same  
place on successive rotations of the scanner.  
Be sure to turn off the interference rejection circuit when no interference exists –  
weak targets may be missed.

2.20 Echo Averaging  
The echo average feature, available with selection of a Model 1833/C series  
network radar as radar source, effectively suppresses sea clutter. Echoes  
received from stable targets such as ships appear on the screen at almost the  
same position during every rotation of the antenna. On the other hand, unstable  
echoes such as sea clutter appear at random positions.  
To distinguish real target echoes from sea clutter, echo average performs  
scan-to-scan correlation. Correlation is made by storing and averaging echo  
signals over successive picture frames. If an echo is solid and stable, it is  
presented in its normal intensity. Sea clutter is averaged over successive scans  
resulting in the reduced brilliance, making it easier to discriminate real targets  
from sea clutter.  
To properly use the echo average function, it is recommended to first suppress  
sea clutter with the A/C SEA control and then do the following:  
1. If not displayed, press the [HIDE/SHOW] key to display the radar soft keys.  
2. Press the SIGNAL PROC. soft key.  
3. Press the E. AVG soft key to select desired echo averaging.  
OFF: No averaging  
LOW: Helps distinguish targets from sea clutter and suppresses brilliance  
of unstable echoes.  
MED: Distinguishes small stationary targets such as navigation buoys.  
HIGH: Stably displays distant targets.  
The display shows EAV L, EAV M or EAV H when echo averaging is on.

2.23 Watchman  
2.23.1 How watchman works  
The watchman function periodically transmits radar pulses for one minute to  
check for targets in a guard zone. If a target is found in the zone, watchman is  
cancelled, the audio alarm sounds and the radar continues transmitting. If no  
target is found the radar goes into standby, for the number of minutes selected  
on the RADAR DISPLAY SETUP menu. This feature is useful when you do not  
need the radar’s function continuously but want to be alerted to radar targets in a  
specific area. “WTCH” appears at the top left corner when Watchman is active.

2. RADAR OPERATION  
2.25 ARP (option), TTM operation  
When the radar source is ARP-equipped Model 1833/C series network radar,  
you can manually and automatically acquire and track 10 targets. Once a target  
is acquired automatically or manually it is automatically tracked within 0.1 to 32  
nm. When the FURUNO heading sensor PG-1000 is connected, RMC sentence  
(NMEA) is required for true heading data.  
Alternatively, you can display the tracks of other ships by receiving the data  
sentence “TTM” through the NETWORK or NMEA port. However, targets cannot  
be acquired.  
Usage precautions for ARP  
CAUTION  
The plotting accuracy and response of  
this auto plotter meets IMO standards.  
Tracking accuracy is affected by the  
following:  
WARNING  
No one navigational aid should be relied  
upon for the safety of vessel and crew.  
The navigator has the responsibility to  
check all aids available to confirm  
position. Electronic aids are not  
a substitute for basic navigational  
principles and common sense.  
Tracking accuracy is affected by course  
change. One to two minutes is required to  
restore vectors to full accuracy after an  
abrupt course change. (The actual  
amount depends on gyrocompass  
specifications.)  
The amount of tracking delay is inversely  
proportional to the relative speed of the  
target. Delay is on the order of 15-30  
seconds for high relative speed; 30-60  
seconds for low relative speed.  
This auto plotter automatically tracks an  
automatically or manually acquired radar  
target and calculates its course and  
speed, indicating them by a vector. Since  
the data generated by the auto plotter  
are based on what radar targets are  
selected, the radar must always be  
optimally tuned for use with the auto  
plotter, to ensure required targets will not  
be lost or unwanted targets such as sea  
returns and noise will not be acquired  
and tracked.  
Display accuracy is affected by the  
following:  
Echo intensity  
A target does not always mean a land-  
mass, reef, ships or other surface vessels  
but can imply returns from sea surface  
and clutter. As the level of clutter changes  
with environment, the operator should  
properly adjust the A/C SEA, A/C RAIN  
and GAIN controls to be sure target  
echoes are not eliminated from the  
radar screen.

2.25.8 CPA/TCPA alarm (ARP)  
When the predicted CPA of any target becomes smaller than a preset CPA alarm  
range or its predicted TCPA less than a preset TCPA alarm limit, an audio alarm  
sounds, which you may silence with the [CLEAR] key. In addition, the target plot  
symbol of the offending target changes to a triangle and flashes together with its  
vector. Press the [ALARM] key and the message COLLISION ALARM appears.  
Press the CLEAR ALARM soft key to acknowledge the alarm. The flashing of the  
triangle plot symbol continues until you intentionally terminate tracking of the  
target. The ARP continuously monitors the predicted range at the Closest Point  
of Approach (CPA) and predicted time to CPA (TCPA) of each target to own ship.  
Provided that this feature is used correctly, it will help prevent the risk of collision  
by alerting you to threatening targets. It is important that gain, A/C SEA, A/C  
RAIN and other radar controls are properly adjusted and the ARP is set up so  
that it can track targets effectively.  
CPA/TCPA alarm ranges must be set up properly taking into consideration the  
size, tonnage, speed, turning performance and other characteristics of own ship.  
CAUTION  
The CPA/TCPA alarm should never be  
relied upon as the sole means for detect-  
ing the risk of collision. The navigator is  
not relieved of the responsibility to keep  
visual lookout for avoiding collisions,  
whether or not the radar or other plotting  
aid is in use.

2.26 Interpreting the Radar Display  
2.26.1 General  
Minimum and maximum ranges  
Minimum range  
The minimum range is defined by the shortest distance at which, using a scale of  
1.5 or 0.75 nm, a target having an echoing area of 10 m2 is still shown separate  
from the point representing the antenna position. It is mainly dependent on the  
pulselength, antenna height, and signal processing such as main bang  
suppression and digital quantization.  
Maximum range  
The maximum detecting range of the radar, Rmax, varies considerably  
depending on several factors such as the height of the antenna above the  
waterline, the height of the target above the sea, the size, shape and material of  
the target, and atmospheric conditions.  
Under normal atmospheric conditions, the maximum range is equal to the radar  
horizon or a little shorter. The radar horizon is longer than the optical one by  
about 6% because of the diffraction property of the radar signal. Rmax is given  
in the following equation.  
Rmax= 2.2 x ( h1 + h2 )  
where  
Rmax: radar horizon (nautical miles)  
h1:  
h2:  
antenna height (m)  
target height (m)  
Radar horizon  
Optical horizon  
Radar horizon  
For example, if the height of the antenna above the waterline is 9 meters and the  
height of the target is 16 meters, the maximum radar range is;  
Rmax= 2.2 x ( 9 + 16 ) = 2.2 x (3 + 4) = 15.4 nm  
It should be noted that the detection range is reduced by precipitation (which  
absorbs the radar signal).

2. RADAR OPERATION  
Radar resolution  
There are two important factors in radar resolution (discrimination): bearing  
resolution and range resolution.  
Bearing resolution  
Bearing resolution is the ability of the radar to display the  
echoes received from two targets, which are at the same range and close  
together, as separate targets. Bearing resolution is directly proportional to the  
antenna length, and inversely proportional to the radar's wavelength.  
Range resolution  
Range resolution is the ability to display the echoes received  
from two targets, which are on the same bearing and close to each other, as  
separate targets.  
Bearing accuracy  
One of the most important features of the radar is how accurately the bearing of  
a target can be measured. The accuracy of bearing measurement basically  
depends on the narrowness of the radar beam. However, the bearing is usually  
taken relative to the ship’s heading, and thus, proper adjustment of the heading  
marker at installation is an important factor in ensuring bearing accuracy. To  
minimize error when measuring the bearing of a target, select a range which will  
put the target as far out to the edge of the radar screen as possible.  
Range measurement  
Measurement of the range to a target is also a very important function of the  
radar. Generally, there are two means of measuring range: the fixed range rings  
and the variable range marker (VRM). The fixed range rings appear on the  
screen with a predetermined interval and provide a rough estimate of the range  
to a target. The variable range marker’s diameter is increased or decreased so  
that the marker touches the inner edge of the target, allowing the operator to  
obtain more accurate range measurements.

2. RADAR OPERATION  
2.26.2 False echoes  
Occasionally echo signals appear on the screen at positions where there is no  
target, or disappear even if there are targets. False target situations may be  
recognized, however, if you understand why they are displayed. Typical false  
echoes are shown below.  
Multiple echoes  
Multiple echoes occur when a transmitted pulse returns from a solid object like a  
large ship, bridge, or breakwater. A second, a third or more echoes may be  
observed on the display at double, triple or other multiples of the actual range of  
the target as shown below. Multiple reflection echoes can be reduced and often  
removed by decreasing the gain (sensitivity) or properly adjusting the [A/C SEA]  
control.

Sidelobe echoes  
Every time the radar pulse is transmitted, some radiation escapes on each side  
of the beam. This stray RF is called sidelobe. If a target exists where it can be  
detected by the side lobes as well as the main lobe, the side echoes may be  
represented on both sides of the true echo at the same range. Sidelobes appear  
usually only on short ranges and from strong targets. They can be reduced  
through careful reduction of the gain or proper adjustment of the A/C SEA  
control.

Virtual image  
A relatively large target close to your ship may be shown at two positions on the  
screen. One of them is the true echo directly reflected by the target and the other  
is a false echo which is caused by the mirror effect of a large object on or close  
to your ship as shown in the figure below. If your ship comes close to a large  
metal bridge, for example, such a false echo may temporarily be seen on the  
screen.

2. RADAR OPERATION  
2.26.3 SART (Search and Rescue Transponder)  
A Search and Rescue Transponder (SART) may be triggered by any X-Band (3  
cm) radar within a range of approximately 8 nm. Each radar pulse received  
causes it to transmit a response which is swept repetitively across the complete  
radar frequency band. When interrogated, it first sweeps rapidly (0.4 µs) through  
the band before beginning a relatively slow sweep (7.5 µs) through the band  
back to the starting frequency. This process is repeated for a total of twelve  
complete cycles. At some point in each sweep, the SART frequency will match  
that of the interrogating radar and be within the pass band of the radar receiver.  
If the SART is within range, the frequency match during each of the 12 slow  
sweeps will produce a response on the radar display, thus a line of 12 dots  
equally spaced by about 0.64 nautical miles will be shown.  
When the range to the SART is reduced to about 1 nm, the radar display may  
show also the 12 responses generated during the fast sweeps. These additional  
dot responses, which also are equally spaced by 0.64 nm, will be interspersed  
with the original line of 12 dots. They will appear slightly weaker and smaller  
than the original dots.

2. RADAR OPERATION  
General procedure for detecting SART response  
1. Use the range scale of 6 or 12 nm as the spacing between the SART  
responses is about 0.6 nm (1125 m) to distinguish the SART.  
2. Turn off the automatic clutter suppression (if applicable).  
3. Turn off the Interference Rejector.  
General remarks on receiving SART  
SART range errors  
When responses from only the 12 low frequency sweeps are visible (when the  
SART is at a range greater than about 1 nm), the position at which the first dot is  
displayed may be as much as 0.64 nm beyond the true position of the SART.  
When the range closes so that the fast sweep responses are seen also, the first  
of these will be no more than 150 meters beyond the true position.  
Radar bandwidth  
This is normally matched to the radar pulselength and is usually switched with  
the range scale and the associated pulselength. Narrow bandwidths of 3-5 MHz  
are used with long pulses on long range and wide bandwidths of 10-25 MHz with  
short pulses on short ranges.  
Any radar bandwidth of less than 5 MHz will attenuate the SART signal slightly,  
so it is preferable to use a medium bandwidth to ensure optimum detection of  
the SART.  
Radar side lobes  
As the SART is approached, sidelobes from the radar antenna may show the  
SART responses as a series of arcs or concentric rings. These can be removed  
by the use of the [A/C SEA] control although it may be operationally useful to  
observe the sidelobes as they may be easier to detect in clutter conditions and  
also they will confirm that the SART is near to the ship.  
Gain  
For maximum range SART detection the normal gain setting for long range  
detection should be used, that is, with background noise speckle visible.

2. RADAR OPERATION  
A/C SEA control  
For optimum range SART detection, this control should be set to the minimum.  
Care should be exercised as wanted target in sea clutter may be obscured. Note  
also that in clutter conditions the first few dots of the SART response may not be  
detectable, irrespective of the setting of the anti-clutter sea control. In this case,  
the position of the SART may be estimated by measuring 9.5 nm from the  
furthest dot back towards own ship.  
Some sets have automatic/manual anti-clutter sea control facilities in which case  
the operator should switch to manual.  
A/C RAIN control  
This should be used normally (to break up areas of rain) when trying to detect a  
SART response which, being a series of dots, is not affected by the action of the  
anti-clutter rain circuitry. Note that racon responses, which are often in the form  
of a long flash, will be affected by the use of this control.  
Some sets have automatic/manual anti-clutter rain control facilities in which case  
the operator should switch to manual.  
Note: This SART information is excerpted from IMO SN/Circ 197 Operation of  
Marine Radar for SART Detection.  
2.26.4 Racon (Radar Beacon)  
A racon is a radar transponder which emits a characteristic signal when triggered  
by a ship’s radar (usually only the 3 centimeter band). The signal may be emitted  
on the same frequency as that of the triggering radar, in which case it is  
superimposed on the ship's radar display automatically.  
The racon signal appears on the PPI as a radial line originating at a point just  
beyond the position of the radar beacon or as a Morse code signal (see figure  
below) displayed radially from just beyond the beacon.

Reading the XTE (cross-track error) monitor  
The XTE monitor, located below the compass rose, shows the amount you are  
off course and the direction to steer to return to course. The own ship marker  
shows the direction and amount your ship is off course. It is shown in black when  
the amount of cross-track error is within the XTE monitor range and yellow when  
it is over. (On the monochrome model it flashes when the amount of cross-track  
error is more than the XTE monitor range.) An arrow appears at the right or left  
side of the XTE monitor and it shows the direction to steer to return to intended  
course. (For the color model the arrow is shown in red when you should steer  
left, and green when you should steer right.) In the example on the previous  
page you would steer right to return to course. To maintain course, steer the  
vessel so the own ship marker stays at the center of the XTE monitor.

Highway display  
The highway display, displayed at the lower half of the screen in the combination  
display, provides a graphic presentation of ship’s track along intended course. It  
is useful for monitoring ship’s progress toward a waypoint. The own ship marker  
shows relation between ship and intended course. The XTE monitor shows the  
direction and amount your vessel is off course – the arrow shows the direction to  
steer to return to your course and the numeric the distance you are off course.  
Using the figure below as an example, you would steer right 0.009 nm to return  
to course. To maintain course, steer the vessel so the own ship marker stays  
aligned with the intended course line.

Track plotting method and interval for own ship track  
In drawing the own ship track, first the ship’s position fed from a navigation  
receiver is stored into the unit’s memory at an interval of time or distance. A  
shorter interval provides for better reconstruction of the track, but the storage  
time of the track is reduced. When the track memory becomes full, the oldest  
track is erased to make room for the latest.

Waypoints  
In navigation terminology, a waypoint is a particular location on a voyage  
whether it be a starting, intermediate or destination point. A waypoint is the  
simplest piece of information your equipment requires to get you to a destination,  
in the shortest distance possible.  
This unit has 999 waypoints into which you can enter position information. You  
may enter a waypoint five ways: at own ship position, at MOB position  
(page3-61), by cursor, by range and bearing, and through the waypoint list  
(manual input of latitude and longitude).

Routes  
Often a trip from one place to another involves several course changes,  
requiring a series of route points (waypoints) which you navigate to, one after  
another. The sequence of waypoints leading to the ultimate destination is called  
a route. Your unit can automatically advance to the next waypoint on a route, so  
you do not have to change the destination waypoint repeatedly.  
You can store up to 200 routes, and a route may have 35 waypoints.

on screen. It does this by utilizing the fact that an ultrasonic wave transmitted  
through water travels at a nearly constant speed of 4800 feet (1500 meters) per  
second. When a sound wave strikes an underwater object such as fish or sea  
bottom, part of the sound wave is reflected back toward the source (transducer).  
Thus by calculating the time difference between the transmission of a sound  
wave and the reception of the reflected sound wave, the depth to the object can  
be determined.  
The entire process begins in the network sounder. Transmitter power is sent to  
the transducer as a short pulse of electrical energy. The electrical signal  
produced by the transmitter is converted into an ultrasonic signal by the  
transducer and transmitted into the water. Any returning signals from intervening  
objects (such as a fish school) are received by the transducer and converted into  
an electrical signal. The signals are then amplified in the amplifier section, and  
finally, displayed on screen.  
The picture displayed is made up of a series of vertical scan lines, one for each  
transmission. Each line represents a snapshot of what has occurred beneath the  
boat. A series of snapshots are accumulated side by side across the screen, and  
the resulting contours of the bottom and fish between the bottom and surface  
are displayed.

Dual-frequency display  
50 kHz picture  
The sounder uses ultrasonic pulses to detect bottom conditions. The lower the  
frequency of the pulse, the wider the detection area. Therefore, the 50 kHz  
frequency is useful for general detection and judging bottom condition.  
200 kHz picture  
The higher the frequency of the ultrasonic pulse the better the resolution.  
Therefore, the 200 kHz frequency is ideal for detailed observation of fish school.

Automatic Sounder Operation  
Automatic sounder operation is useful when you are preoccupied with other  
tasks and do not have the time to adjust the display.  
4.3.1  
How the automatic sounder works  
The automatic sounder function automatically selects the proper gain, range  
scale and clutter suppression level according to depth. It works as follows:  
Range changes automatically to locate the bottom on the lower half of screen.  
The range jumps to one step shallower range when bottom echoes reach a  
half way point of the full scale from top and to one step deeper range when  
they come to the lower edge of the scale.  
The gain is automatically adjusted to display the bottom echo in reddish brown  
(default color arrangement).  
Clutter, which suppresses low level noise, is automatically adjusted.  
4.3.2  
4.3.3  
Types of automatic sounder modes  
Two types of automatic sounder modes are available: CRUISING and FISHING.  
CRUISING is for tracking the bottom, and FISHING is for searching fish schools.  
CRUISING uses a higher clutter rejection setting than FISHING therefore it is not  
recommended for fish detection - weak fish echoes may be erased by the clutter  
suppression circuit.  
How to enable automatic sounder operation  
1. If not displayed, press the [HIDE/SHOW] key to show the sounder soft keys.  
2. Press the AUTO/D. BOX soft key.

Manual Sounder Operation  
Manual operation is useful for observing fish schools and bottom using fixed gain  
setting.  
The gain, range and range shifting functions used together give you the means  
to select the depth you can see on 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.

4.14 Interpreting the Sounder Display  
4.14.1 Zero line  
The zero line (sometimes referred to as the transmission line) represents the  
transducer’s position, and moves off the screen when a deep phased range is  
used.  
Zero line  
Shift  
Zero line  
4.14.2 Bottom echo  
Echoes from the bottom are normally the strongest and are displayed in  
reddish-brown (color model) or darkest tone (monochrome model) but the color  
(tone on the monochrome model) and width will vary with bottom composition,  
water depth, frequency, sensitivity, etc.  
In a comparatively shallow depth, a high gain setting will cause a second or  
sometimes a third or a fourth echo to be displayed at the same interval between  
them below the first echo trace. This is because the echo travels between the  
bottom and the surface twice or more in shallow depths.  
The color (tone for monochrome model) of the bottom echo can be used to help  
determine the density of the bottom materials (soft or hard). The harder the  
bottom, the wider the trace. If the gain is set to show only a single bottom echo  
on mud, a rocky bottom will show a second or third bottom return. The range  
should be chosen so the first and second bottom echoes are displayed when  
bottom hardness is being determined.

4.14.3 Fish school echoes  
Fish school echoes will generally be plotted between the zero line and the  
bottom. Usually the fish school/fish echo is weaker than the bottom echo  
because its reflection property is much smaller compared to the bottom. The size  
of the fish school can be ascertained from the density of the display.

4.14.4 Surface noise/Aeration  
When the waters are rough or the boat passes over a wake, surface noise may  
appear near the zero line. As surface turbulence is acoustically equivalent to  
running into a brick wall, the bottom echo will be displayed intermittently. Similar  
noise sometimes appears when a water temperature difference (thermocline)  
exists. Different species of fish tend to prefer different temperature zones, so the  
thermocline may be useful to help identify target fish. 200 kHz tends to show  
shallow thermoclines better than 50 kHz.  
In rough waters the display is occasionally interrupted due to below-the-ship air  
bubbles obstructing the sound path. This also occurs when the boat makes a  
quick turn or reverses movement. Lowering the picture advance speed may  
reduce the interruption. However, reconsideration of the transducer installation  
may be necessary if the interruption occurs frequently.

Chart Setup  
This paragraph shows you how to setup digital charts, from offsetting chart  
position to turning chart attributes on or off.

In some instances position may be off by a few seconds. For example, the  
position of the ship is shown to be at sea while it is in fact moored at a pier. You  
can compensate for this error by offsetting chart position as shown in the  
procedure below. You can execute the procedure from any display mode.  
1. Show the plotter display and press the [MENU] key followed by the CHART  
SETUP and CHART OFFSET soft keys.

When the DOP or receiving condition is  
unfavorable, the GPS fix may change greatly, even  
if the vessel is not moving in water. This change can  
be reduced by smoothing the raw GPS fixes. A  
setting between 000 to 999 is available. The higher  
the setting, the more smoothed the raw data. If the  
setting is too high, the response time required to  
show a change of Lat and LON will be too long. this  
is especially noticeable if the vessel is moving fast.  
This is especially noticeable at high ship’ speeds.  
Increase the setting to increase the amount of  
averaging applied to the GPS fix.

Smoothing  
During position fixing, ships velocity (speed and  
course) is directly measured by receiving GPS  
satellite signals. The raw velocity data may vary too  
much depending on receiving conditions and other  
factors. You can reduce this variance by increasing  
the smoothing. Like with latitude and longitude  
smoothing, the higher the speed and course  
smoothing the higher the smoothing setting, the  
more the raw data will be averaged. If this setting is  
high, the response to speed and course changes  
will slow. For no smoothing, enter all zeros.

Satellite  
Every GPS satellite is broadcasting abnormal  
satellite number(s) in its Almanac, which contains  
general orbital data about all GPS satellites,  
including those which are malfunctioning. Using this  
information, the GPS receiver automatically  
eliminates any malfunctioning satellite from the GPS  
satellite schedule. However, the Almanac  
sometimes may not contain this information. If you  
hear about a malfunctioning satellite from another  
source, you can disable it manually. Enter satellite  
number (two digits, max. 3 satellites) with the
