7.8 Echosounder setup
The ‘Echosounder setup’ display mainly consist of general settings, but
also applies to a specific frequency where stated. The type of transdu-
cer selected (and installed) in the first two lines will also determine the
frequencies.
The CAXX features two transceivers, a 50/200kHz (ECHO1) and a
38/200kHz (ECHO2), which gives the following dual frequency
combinations: 38+50, 38+200 and 50+200 kHz.
One combi transducer or two single transducers can be connected.
)
Do not connect both a combi + a second transducer at the same time
– see the Installation manual for selection of transducer.
