INTRODUCTION The Accura 240 is the latest member of the Eagle family that combines a high performance sonar with a wide, high definition screen. Using menu features and “soft-key” operation, the Accura 240 is also easy to use. The wide screen shows the underwater world with high resolution and detail. The display and keyboard are also lighted for night operation. The Accura 240 has digital boat speed, surface water temperature, and distance travelled (log) screens. SPECIFICATIONS Dimensions ...

After the cables have been routed, fill the hole with a good marine sealing compound. Offset the bracket to cover the hole. Route the power cable through the slot. Break out one of the holes in the back of the bracket for the transducer cable. FRONT POWER CONNECTIONS The Accura 240 works from a twelve-volt battery system. For the best results, attach the power cable directly to the battery. You can attach the power cable to an accessory or power buss, however you may have problems with electrica

FASTRAK This feature converts all echoes to short horizontal lines on the display’s far right side. The graph continues to operate nor- mally. FASTRAK gives you a rapid update of conditions directly under the boat. This makes it useful for ice fishing, or when you’re fishing at anchor. Since the unit is not moving, fish signals are long, drawn out lines on a normal chart display. FASTRAK makes a useful addition to fishing at a sta- tionary location. CAUTION! All depth alarms and automatic featur

Digital/Chart The digital/chart shows the chart on the right side of the screen. The left side has four digital boxes containing the water depth at the top of the screen, boat speed, distance travelled (log), and surface water temperature. At the bottom of the screen is a temperature graph. (Note: Speed, distance, and temperature displays require a speed/ temperature sensor which must be purchased separately.) Window Groups You can change the displays on the Accura 240 by using the windows fea-

AUTOMATIC When the Accura 240 is first turned on, the Automatic feature is enabled. This is indicated by the word “AUTO” at the top of the screen. The Automatic fea- ture adjusts the sensitivity and range so the bottom signal is displayed in the lower half of the screen at all times. To turn Automatic off, first press the MENU key, then press the up or down arrow keys until the "AUTO" menu appears. Press the left arrow key to switch to the manual mode. The letters “Man” appear at the top of the

The sensitivity menu has left and right arrows, plus a horizontal bar graph. The graph gives a visual indication of the sensitivity level. The number to the right of the bar graph shows the percentage of sensitivity in use. To increase the sensitivity level, press the right arrow key. As you press the key, the menu’s bar graph will grow wider and the percentage will increase in value. You can also see the difference on the chart record as it scrolls. When the sensitivity is at the desired level,

FISH ID The Fish ID feature identifies targets that meet certain conditions as fish. The microcomputer analyses all echoes and eliminates surface clutter, thermoclines, and other signals that are undesirable. In most instances, remaining targets are fish. The Fish ID feature displays symbols on the screen in place of the actual fish echoes. There are four fish symbol sizes: tiny, small, medium, and large. These are used to designate the relative size between targets. In other words, it displays

ALARMS The Accura 240 has three different types of sonar alarms. The first is the Fish Alarm. It sounds when the Fish I.D. feature determines an echo or group of echoes is a fish. Another alarm is the Zone Alarm which consists of a bar. Any echo that appears inside this bar triggers this alarm. The last alarm is called the Depth Alarm. Only the bottom signal will trigger this alarm. This is useful as an anchor watch, a shallow water alert, or for navigation. To adjust an alarm, first press the A
