In general, reflections from a fish school form a light-colored downturn
between the sea level and bottom on the screen.
(16)-2 Reflection from a fish
school
Information provided by the screen image of a fish school includes the size and
density of the shoal. Comparison, as a routine matter, between the screen image
and the actual fishery will permit you to read the image exactly.
The image size of s a fish school is in proportion to the actual size.
When the system detects two same-sized fish school at different depths, however,
the fish school located at a deeper position will be displayed as a smaller-sized
image on the screen. This is because the ultrasonic radiates at a cone-shaped
beam angle from the transducer and therefore the deeper the object position is, the
longer the time for which it is radiated with the beam. The relationship between the
image size and the depth of an object depends on the image feed rate and the ship
speed.

The higher the density of a fish school is, the closer to red the color of the
image is (i.e., the higher the strength of signals reflected from the object is).
When two images having the same density (same signal strength) are displayed at
different depths on the same screen, however, the density of the two fish schools
are different; the deeper one is actually denser than the shallower one. This is
because the deeper the object position is, the more the pulses reflected from the
object delay.

In shallow-depth areas, phantom contours of the sea bottom may often occur
(16)-3 Secondary reflections
under the actual contour.
from the sea bottom
These phantom contours of the sea bottom are caused by secondary reflections
from the sea bottom (bounce of the ultrasonic wave between the sea bottom and
the water surface or the ship). This symptom tends to occur in particular when the
ship bottom is rocky or a low frequency is used. The secondary contours will
appear at depths of integral multiples of the actual depth of water.

(16)-4 Plankton layers or tidal current layer
Plankton may sometimes gather and form a layer.
Å Plankton layers
Such a layer looks like a cloud on the screen and may expand to the depths. Since
plankton forms the food of many fish, detection of plankton layers will lead to an
increase in fishery.
Plankton are light-sensitive, and live in the depth in the daytime and emerge to a
shallow depth at night.
Tidal current layers may occur depending on the speed or route of tidal cur-
rents.
ı Tidal current layers
In areas where different tidal currents encounter, air bubbles or plankton form a
layer, which is displayed on the screen, as in:

If the ultrasonic beam passes through air bubbles, reflections from a shoal of

occurring on the screen image.

This symptom is apt to occur when a low frequency is used, the ship turns and
passes through its own track, or the sea is rough. Voids on the screen mean that
the ultrasonic energy is dissipated or absorbed by air bubbles.

This system operates from an 11 to 30 VDC power source.
Connect the power cable as follows.
Ç Connecting the power cable
q Connect the connectorless end of the cable to the battery as shown in the over-
all connection diagram (G P. 68).

+
Be sure to ground the system properly.
Î Connecting a ground cable
Failure to do so may cause a malfunction or fault of the system.
To establish a ground for the system, use a ground cable of adequate size to con-
nect between the GND terminal and the engine block or hull in the shortest dis-
tance.
Never connect ground cables for other electronic devices to the grounding
mass that is used to ground the system.
Since GPS signals reaches the system from a distance of several hundred
miles, noise sources near the system may result in failure to take full advan-
tage of the system.
6-3 Measures against noises
from the generator
Noise sources include generator, fishfinder, radar, computer and fluorescent lamp.
The system should be placed apart from these noise sources as far as possible or
the noise sources except the generator should not be used during the use of the
system.
Take the following measures against noises due to the generator among others.
q Prepare an electrolytic capacitor and a film capacitor having the following ratings
depending on the system’s power source voltage.
Film capacitor
Silicon rubber
Power source voltage
Electrolytic capacitor
Film capacitor
12V
24V
2,200µF 35WV
2,200µF 50WV
4.7µF 400WV
4.7µF 400WV
w Solder the electrolytic capacitor and film capacitor in parallel with each other.
And as shown in the figure on the left, connect lead wires to the capacitor com-
bination and cover the lead connections with silicon rubber to avoid current leak-
age.
Must be within 10 cm each
Electrolytic capacitor
* The lead wires must not exceed 4 in (10 cm) in length.
e Connect the positive end of the capacitor combination to the generator output
terminal and the negative end to the grounding mass such as the engine block.

When installing the GPS antenna, observe the following.
6-4 Installing the GPS antenna
q Install the antenna at the top of the highest and obstacle-free position of the
ship.
w Install the antenna in a horizontal position.
Install the antenna with a extention pipe and the horse bands as follows.
e Install the antenna at a position at least 1 m away from the main unit or other
electronic devices.
r Do not paint the antenna.
Doing so will deteriorate the sensitivity of the antenna due to metal components
of a paint.
t Install the antenna and route the antenna cable at some distance from other
antennas or antenna cables (such as a TV antenna and radio), metal objects,
and the main unit.
It is recommended not to use a TV during the use of the system.

6-5 Installing an optional transducer
Various types of transducers and ship speed/water temperature sensors are
available as options to suit your application.
Å Optional transducers and acces-
sories
Through-the-hull type transducer
EX-1010
(600W, 2 frequencies, metal enclosure, built-in sensor)
Transom type transducer
EX-1622
(600W, 2 frequencies, plastic enclosure, built-in sensor)
RD-200
DGPS beacon receiver
The performance of the fishfinder greatly depends on the installation posi-
tion of the transducer.
ı Installation position
Transducers are mainly divided into two types: the through-the-hull type and the
transom type.
Install the transducer in the following area.
q Area where the possibility of on-screen voids due to air bubbles or water turbu-
lence is minimized;
w Area that resists being exposed to noises from the engine;
e Area where the transducer is kept horizontal even if the ship runs at high speed;
(The optimum installation position of the transducer is said to be at a distance
of a half or one-third of the ship length from the stern for low-speed small ships,
and to be located close to the stern for high-speed ships.)
r Area where the bottom plate is the thinnest in the vicinity of the stern (for inner-
hull type transducer; the ultrasonic decays when it passes through the bottom
plate).

The DGPS is a newly established system intended to improve the positioning
precision of the GSP.
6-7 DGPS
Connecting RD-200, a DGPS beacon receiver, allows the system to receive cor-
rection data from a land DGPS reference station, thereby enabling the positioning
precision to be further improved.
The nominal positioning precision is 100 m when only the GPS is used, but using
the DGPS leads to the nominal precision of 10 m.
* For details, see the RD-200 Instruction Manual.
