Preventing interruption by Bubble (TX CYCLE MODE)
The transmission cycle and the chart feed timing are normally synchronized
with each other, but they can be unsynchronized to make the sounder more
resistant to the interruption by bubble. Remember, however that in shallow
seas this setting is prone to pick quasi sea-bottom echo.
To switch the transmission cycle and the chart feed timing, follow these
steps:
1.
Press the
and
keys at the same time to call up the
fishfinding menu.
2.
Using the
or
key, move to “5.TX CYCLE MODE.”
3.
Press the
or
key to move to “SYNC” (synchronous) or
“ASYNC” (asynchronous).
4.
Press the
GRAPH
key to return to the fishfinding display.
“ASYNC” is useful when the chart feed speed is reduced to l/3 or
lower.

To inhibit the display of the quasi sea-bottom image (ADJUST TX CYCLE)
When the echo sounder is used with a shallow range, a quasi sea-bottom
image may be displayed at an intermediate depth between the zero line and
the sea bottom with a response that is weaker than that of the real sea
bottom.
If this quasi sea-bottom image is obstructive for looking at the echo sounder
image, adjust the transmission period on item “6.ADJUST TX CYCLE” of
the fishfinding menu.
To adjust the transmission period, operate as follows:
1.
Press the
and
keys at the same time to call up the
fishfinding menu.
2.
Using the
or
key, move to “6.ADJUST TX CYCLE.”
3.
Press
or
key to adjust the transmission period. The set
value for transmission period adjustment varies from 0 to 100, where
the quasi-echo of the sea bottom is more largely inhibited as the set
value increases.
4.
Press the
GRAPH
key to return to the fishfinding display.
