ESN100 Screen functions
Introduction
The ESN 100 Echosounder system is an echosounder with 1 channel that can be switched between frequen-
cies and transducers in various locations of the vessel.
The Screen can be setup to show the parameters that the user wishes to see or control, but it also has an auto-
matic function that takes over the control of range, gain, frequency and power of the system to minimize the
required amount of user interaction.
The system has 1 mandatory alarm (Shallow water) and a second deep water alert. In addition it gives alerts
of system failures.
The system will have 1 or 2 transducers installed, typically 50 kHz in the bow and 200 kHz aft. With this
system it is also possible to install a dual frequency 50 / 200 kHz transducer both forward and aft, and the
system can be made to select the best frequency at any particular time.
Presentation
The user presentation screen is a single screen .
Selected Transducer
The selected transducer
is seen on the top right
as position and fre-
quency. If 2 are installed
the Transducer selec-
tion on the bottom right
switches between these.
Dimming level
The dimming can be controlled by touch-
ing the screen and adjusting the brightness
parameter. Colour schemes will change
as the dimming is adjusted, as set in the
dimming menu. If the system is dimmed
so deeply that the buttons cannot be seen,
simply touch and hold the screen to lift the
dimming level
Depth and units
The Depth is shown numerically on the
middle left, and the Echogram shows the
variation of depth over time. The units can
be changed by touching the unit sign, or in
the menus
