Result
When all channels have been installed, you can start normal operation.
Caution
You must never set the EK80 to "ping" unless the transducer is submerged in water.
Most transducers are damaged beyond repair if they transmit in open air. Prevent
inadvertent use of the EK80 whenever a transducer is not submerged.

Adjusting the screen resolution
Some computers have graphic adapters that are not able to detect the resolution of
the current display. This limitation can also be caused by the display cable, or by
imperfections in a display matrix system. In such cases, you must use the functionality
of the operating system to adjust the screen resolution.
Prerequisites
This procedure is made for the Microsoft ®
Windows ® 7 and 10 operating systems. It
is assumed that you are familiar with these
operating systems.
Context
As a general recommendation, you should
set the screen resolution as high as possible.
This will allow you more "space" in the
EK80 presentation to offer more detailed
information. The physical width of your
top bar will also be extended, and free space
for icons and navigational information.
Unless you change the hardware (computer,
graphic adapter or display), you will only
need to do this once.
Procedure
1 On the Processor Unit, close the EK80 program.
2 This procedure is made for the Microsoft ® Windows ® 7 operating system.
a In the bottom-left corner of your desktop, select the Windows
®
Start
button.
b On the right-hand side of the
Start
menu, select
