ESN100 Operation and Installation Manual
Chapter: Introduction and Specification
Introduction and Specification
The SKIPPER ESN100 is a navigational echo sounders. It is made to fulfill the ISO/IMO standards, as well as
the modern IEC standards for maritime equipment and alarm handling.
Features include:
•
Easy and logical operation via a touch display
•
Flexible installation with minimal wiring
•
Basic but comprehensive communication and features
The system has a single active channel, and can be used on both 50 or 200 kHz transducers. The system is
simple to install, and simple to use having automated functions such that the need for adjustment is minimal.

Frequency (selectable)
50kHz and 200kHz
Two transducers can be connected at one time. Only one is
operational at a time.
Both transducers can be 50kHz and or 200kHz. If dual fre-
quency 50/200kHz transducer, an automatically switching
of frequency may be programmed (200kHz in shallow water
0-100m, 50kHz in deeper water >100m)
