please carefully follow the steps outlined in this manual. An
instructive demonstration simulator has been designed into the
Twinscope and we highly recommend that you spend some

also recommend that you read this entire manual before
attempting to either install or operate your
Twinscope.
Warranty Information
Interphase provides a 5-Year limited warranty on the
Twinscope Forward Scanning Sonar. We strongly urge you to
read this warranty (reprinted at the back of this manual) and
closely follow its terms and conditions should your
Twinscope
require repair. It is highly recommended that you save all
packing materials so that if you should need to send in the unit
for repair, it can be fully protected. If you wrap your display
unit in the original plastic bag and ship it in the box with
cardboard inserts, this will protect your unit from scratches
and shock during shipment.
Should you experience a problem with your Twinscope , first
refer to the Troubleshooting section (Page 80) of this manual.
Most common problems and their solutions are described here.
If problems persist, call
Interphase Technical Service at
(831) 477-4944 . We will be happy to try to assist you, and if
required, we will give you instructions on how to quickly get
your set repaired.
The enclosed warranty registration card must be completed
and returned to
Interphase within 15 days of purchase so that
your unit may be protected under the warranty. Failure to
return the warranty card may cause unnecessary delays in
processing your unit for warranty repair.
WARNING
Navigation based solely on one method or
one instrument should never be practiced.
While the
Twinscope can be quite useful in
showing underwater structure and changing
bottom conditions both below and in front of
your vessel, there are many situations and
conditions which can cause erroneous or
distorted readings.
In addition, there are many situations that can
cause “blind spots” in the
Twinscope’s field
of view including the presence of
temperature inversion layers (thermoclines),
water turbulence, and high concentrations of
suspended particles in the water.
While the Twinscope can be considered as a
useful aid to navigation, it should never be
the
only means of navigation.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Since the Twinscope’s Forward Looking
technology is revolutionary, there is a strong
possibility that we will develop many new
and exciting features in the future. We
would like to make sure we can send you
information about these new features and
enhancements.
Please fill out and return the Warranty
Registration Card immediately. This is our
only method to keep in contact with you and
we may want to advise you of future
enhancements to your
Twinscope .
If future changes or improvements are made,
software upgrades wil be available for a
nominal charge.
