Display Problems
There are several main conditions or sources of possible interference that may cause
problems with the quality of the information displayed on the control head. Look in the
following table for some symptoms of display problems and possible solutions:
Problem
Possible Cause
The control head loses power at
high speeds.
When the boat moves at higher
speeds, the bottom disappears
or suddenly weakens, or the
display contains gaps.
There are no fish detected,
even when you know they are
in the water under the boat,
or sonar readings seem weak
or faulty.
If the power output of your boat’s engine is
unregulated, the control head may be protecting
itself using its over-voltage protection feature. Make
sure the input voltage does not exceed 20 Volts.
The transducer position may need to be adjusted. A
mix of air and water flowing around the transducer
(cavitation) may be interfering with the inter-
pretation of sonar data. See your Installation Guide
for suggestions on adjusting the transducer position.
Electrical noise from the boat’s engine may be
interfering with sonar reception. See
Finding the
Cause of Noise
for more information.
Sonar readings may be affected if the transducer is
not positioned correctly (i.e. mounted at an angle, not
straight down), or there is some kind of mechanical
interference, either because it is mounted inside a
hull that is too thick for proper sonar transmission,
the bond between the transducer and the hull is not
airtight, or because the transducer is dirty. Check with
your Installation Guide for guidance on re-positioning
the transducer, and make sure the transducer is clean.
Low battery voltage may be affecting the power of
signal transmission.
Electrical noise from the boat’s engine may be
interfering with sonar reception. See
Finding the
Cause of Noise
for more information.
