How Sonar Works Sonar technology is based on sound waves. The 300 Series™ Fishing System uses sonar to locate and define structure, bottom contour and composition, as well as depth directly below the transducer. Your 300 Series™ Fishing System sends a sound wave signal and determines distance by measuring the time between the transmission of the sound wave and when the sound wave is reflected off of an object; it then uses the reflected signal to interpret location, size, and composition of an o

The sound pulses are transmitted at various frequencies depending on the application. Very high frequencies (455 kHz) are used for greatest definition but the operating depth is limited. High frequencies (200 kHz) are commonly used on consumer sonar and provide a good balance between depth performance and resolution. Low frequencies (83 kHz) are typically used to achieve greater depth capability. The power output is the amount of energy generated by the sonar transmitter. It is commonly mea

DualBeam PLUS™ Sonar Your 300 Series™ Fishing System uses a 200/83 kHz DualBeam PLUS™ sonar system with a wide (60°) area of coverage. DualBeam PLUS™ sonar has a narrowly focused 20° center beam, surrounded by a second beam of 60°, expanding your coverage to an area equal to your depth. In 20 feet of water, the wider beam covers an area 20 feet wide. The 20° center beam is focused on the bottom, to show you structure, weeds and cover. The 60° wide beam is hunting for fish in the wide coverag

GPS uses a constellation of 24 satellites that continually send radio signals to the earth. Your present position is determined by receiving signals from up to 16 satellites and measuring the distance from the satellites. All satellites broadcast a uniquely coded signal once per second at exactly the same time. The GPS receiver on your boat receives signals from satellites that are visible to it. Based on time differences between each received signal, the GPS receiver determines its distance t

What’s On the Display The 300 Series™ Fishing System can display a variety of useful information about the area Depth - water depth; can be set to alarm when the water becomes too shallow. Cursor - available in Freeze Frame and can be positioned in the Sonar View to provide depth of a sonar return and bottom depth below the cursor. Temperature - water surface temperature. Timer - Elapsed time with Temp/Speed Accessory or GPS Receiver. Distance - Distance traveled with Temp/Speed Accessory or GP

A thermocline typically appears as a continuous band of many colors moving across the display at the same depth. 83 kHz Blue Fish Symbol Fish - the FishFinder displays fish as arches and/or fish icons, and can be set to alarm when a fish of a certain size is detected.

Sonar View Sonar View presents a historical log of sonar returns. Depth is always displayed. Readouts for temperature and speed are automatically displayed if the appropriate accessory is connected. The most recent sonar returns are charted on the right side of the window; as new information is received, the older information is moved across the display to the left. A Digital Depth Readout is displayed in the upper left corner. A scale with Upper and Lower Depth Range readouts appears along the

Understanding Sonar History It is important to understand the significance of the 300 Series™ Fishing System display. The display does NOT show a literal 3-dimensional representation of what is under the water. Each vertical band of data received by the control head and plotted on the display represents something that was detected by a sonar return at a particular time. As both the boat and the targets (fish) may be moving, the returns are only showing a particular segment of time when objects w

Freeze Frame Freeze Frame - Pressing any arrow on the 4-WAY Cursor Control key will freeze the screen and a cursor will be displayed on the screen. The cursor can be positioned on the display using the 4-WAY Cursor Control key to determine the depth of any sonar return. The RTS® Window continues to update in Freeze Frame. In addition, see the effects of menu setting changes with Instant Image Update. Pressing EXIT will exit Freeze Frame and the display will start to scroll. Freeze Frame is a

Sonar Zoom View Sonar Zoom View increases the displayed resolution to separate sonar returns that are very close together, such as those caused by fish suspended close to the bottom or within structure. In Zoom View, the display is split to show a narrow slice of the full range view on the right and the zoomed view on the left. The full range view on the right also contains the Zoom Preview Box that shows what part of the full range view is shown in zoom view on the left; the Zoom Preview Box tr

200/83 kHz Split Sonar View Split Sonar View displays sonar returns from the 83 kHz wide beam on the left side of the screen and displays sonar returns from the 200 kHz narrow beam on the right side of the screen. Depth is always displayed in the upper left hand corner. You can use the Split Sonar View to make side by side comparisons between the sonar returns from the 83 kHz wide beam and the 200 kHz narrow beam. The digital readouts in the Split Sonar View cannot be customized; therefore, info
