DO NOT
• Do not bend tow line around cleat or bend tow line sharply.
• Do not let Fish, Sonar Processor or PC sit in hot sun for prolonged periods.
• Do not pile tow cable on top of fish while fish is on-deck.
• Do not power up Sonar Processor until Computer has booted-up (Computer will not boot-up properly).
• Do not plug Sonar Processor into any voltage other than 12 vdc (12 v battery). If the available voltage supply is 120 vac
or 220 vac, then use a wall mount power supply with an output of 12 vdc at 1,500 ma or more. The correct wall mount
power supply is available from JW Fishers.
DO
• Always turn off the power switch on the Sonar Processor before unplugging the power cord.
•
T
o reduce outside electrical interference (noise on the sonar image), connect a wire from the “Water Ground” terminal
on the Sonar Processor panel directly to a piece of metal that goes into the water.
• Loosen the thumbscrew (next to handle) one turn to prevent pressure buildup inside the Sonar Processor housing.
• Protect fish fins when fish is out of water. Insure lower fins are protected.
• Pile tow cable on-deck and sit fish on top of tow cable pile.
• Protect cable end connectors, keep them dry and out of water.
• For the best image, the Fish should be towed 10 - 15% of the Range Switch setting off the bottom (if operating in the
75 m range, the Fish should be towed 7.5-11 m off the bottom).
• Boat passes must be in a straight line or target printout will be distorted (curved).
• After searching an area in one direction, repeat the search pattern with a 90 deg shift in directions.
• Once a target is detected, verify image. Make several straight passes at different approaches (different angles).
