WEEE compliance may not be required in your location for electrical & electronic equipment (EEE), nor may it be required for EEE designed and intended as fixed or temporary installation in transportation vehicles such as automobiles, aircraft, and boats. In some European Union member states, these vehicles are considered outside of the scope of the Directive, and EEE for those applications can be considered excluded from the WEEE Directive requirement.

Power On Follow the instructions below to power on your Humminbird® control head. 570 Title Screen 1. Press the POWER/LIGHT key. 2. When the Title screen is displayed, press the MENU key to access the Start-Up Options Menu. 3. Use the 4-WAY Cursor Control key to select Normal (if there is a transducer attached to the control head) or Simulator (if there isn’t a transducer attached to the control head). NOTE: See Start-Up Options Menu for more information. • If a functioning transducer is connect

How Sonar Works Sonar technology is based on sound waves. The 500 Series™ Fishfinder uses sonar to locate and define structure, bottom contour and composition, as well as depth directly below the transducer. Your 500 Series™ Fishfinder 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 object. S

When all the echoes are viewed side by side, an easy to interpret “graph“ of the bottom, fish, and structure appears. 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

Single Beam Sonar (550, 560) The 550 Fishfinder and 560 Fishfinder use a 200 kHz single beam sonar system with a 20° area of coverage. Depth capability is affected by such factors as boat speed, wave action, bottom hardness, water conditions, and transducer installation. How Sonar Works 4

DualBeam Sonar (570) The 570 Fishfinder uses a 200/83 kHz DualBeam sonar system with a wide (60°) area of coverage. DualBeam sonar is optimized to show the greatest bottom definition using a narrow (20°) beam, yet can still indicate fish found in the wide (60°) beam when the Fish ID+™ feature is turned on. DualBeam is ideal for a wide range of conditions - from shallow to very deep water in both fresh and salt water. Depth capability is affected by such factors as boat speed, wave action, bottom

Down Imaging™ Sonar (570 DI) The 570 DI Fishfinder uses Down Imaging™ technology. The Down Imaging™ transducer scans the water with razor-thin, high- definition beams. The beams are wide (side 800kHz 45° to side) but very thin front to back. 455kHz 75° The Down Imaging™ beams can be operated 16° 455kHz at two frequencies: 455 kHz (75°) or 800 kHz 25° (45°). Select 455 kHz for the best overall 200kHz image quality and depth. Select 800 kHz for 75 Degree Total Coverage the sharpest image. See Down

Understanding the Sonar Display It is important to understand the significance of the 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 were detected, not exact

SwitchFire™ SwitchFire™ controls how the sonar returns are displayed in the Sonar Views. SwitchFire™ settings are available in the Sonar Menu Tab. To see the maximum sonar information available within the transducer beam so more fish arches and better jig tracking are shown, choose Max Mode. To see less clutter and more fish size accuracy interpreted from the transducer beam, choose Clear Mode. See Sonar Menu Tab: SwitchFire™ for more information.

Bottom Presentation As the boat moves, the unit charts the changes in depth on the display to create a profile of the Bottom Contour. The type of bottom can be determined from the return charted on the display. A Hard Bottom such as compacted sediment or flat rock appears as a thinner line across the display. A Soft Bottom such as mud or sand appears as a thicker line across the display. Rocky Bottoms have a broken, random appearance. Bottom Contour Profile with RTS Window™ Hard Bottom Soft Bott
