INSTALLATION PREPARATION INSTALLATION OVERVIEW The transducer converts electrical energy from the transmitter into mechanical pulses or sound waves. The transducer also receives the reflected sound waves and converts them back into electrical signals for display on the control head. It should be installed in contact with the surface of the water in an area that has smooth water flow - usually on the transom of the boat. There are several mounting options for the transducer. Review the following

INSTALLATION PREPARATION ALTERNATE TRANSDUCERS AND MOUNTING METHODS Inside the hull installations require no holes to be drilled into the boat and through experimentation, high-speed operation comparable to transom mounting can be achieved. Two part, slow cure epoxy is required to glue the transducer in place. ALTERNATE TRANSDUCERS AND MOUNTING METHODS The 405SX comes with everything necessary for installation and operation on most boats. However, there are several situations which may require a

INSTALLATION PREPARATION BEGINNING INSTALLATION BEGINNING INSTALLATION Now that you have determined the transducer mounting method, you can begin installation of the 405SX. The fold out installation guide included provides detailed step by step instructions for installation of the control head and transducer. For transom mount transducer installations, you will need the mounting template at the back of this manual. In addition to the parts included you need the following for installation and ope

USING THE 405SX HOW SONAR WORKS HOW SONAR WORKS Your Humminbird unit uses sonar to locate and define underwater objects, define the bottom terrain, as well as determine distance. Sonar technology is based on sound waves. Your Humminbird unit sends out a sound wave signal. With this signal it determines distance by measuring the time between the transmission of the sound wave and when the sound wave is reflected off an object. Your Humminbird uses the reflected signal to interpret location, size

When in simulator operation, the 405SX responds to control inputs as if it is in actual operation, so feel free to experiment, or to customize the unit for your particular operation. To exit Simulator mode, power the unit off. FEATURE MEMORY If your 405SX is installed with a transducer connected, any changes you make to the set-up or User Options (se

The graphic depiction of the bottom provides the user with an effective tool for understanding the composition of the bottom. The FSTN type display uses 4 discrete levels of gray to indicate the intensity of the returned sonar signal. The 405SX can display even the smallest sonar returns with light gray pixels. Larger returns are displayed with darker

These are easily identified by the continuous nature of the return. Second Returns. When a sonar signal is reflected off the bottom back to the transducer, there is often enough energy left in the signal to be reflected off the surface of the water back to the bottom a second time. Second returns appear as a slightly weaker bottom representation exactly twice

The 405SX is also capable of showing layers of water having different temperatures. These temperature differences, called thermoclines, appear at different depths, depending on current conditions. A thermocline typically appears as a continuous band of light gray moving across the display at the same depth. Thermoc
