INSTALLATION PREPARATION INSTALLATION OVERVIEW 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 section to determine the method that works for you and your boat. Determining How to Mount the Transducer The 150SX includes a model XHS-6-24 transducer. This transducer can be mounted on the transom of the boat, or bonded to the inside of a fiberglass hull boat. The transom inst

INSTALLATION PREPARATION ALTERNATE TRANSDUCERS AND MOUNTING METHODS Inside the hull installations require no holes 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 150SX comes with everything necessary for installation and operation on most boats. However, there are several situations which may require a di

USING THE 150SX 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, siz

USING THE 150SX SIMULATOR OPERATION There are two ways to start the simulator. If the unit is powered off, press and hold the POWER button for approximately three seconds until you hear a continuous chirp. The simulator can also be started by selecting the Simulator option on the start- up screen after you power-up the unit. When this screen is shown, simply press the DOWN ARROW until “Simulator” is highlighted. When the screen times out, the unit will be in simulator mode. When in simulator op

USING THE 150SX WHAT YOU SEE ON-SCREEN What You See On-Screen Your 150SX uses a 128 V x 64 H matrix FSTN LCD display. This display provides outstanding viewability in all light conditions over a wide range of temperatures. At initial power-up, the 150SX uses settings that were set at the factory. After initial use, the 150SX will remember the settings you enter. There are several elements on-screen that are common to all modes of operation. Depth. The digital depth number shows the water dept

USING THE 150SX WHAT YOU SEE ON-SCREEN Bottom. The graphic depiction of the bottom provides an effective tool for understanding the composition of the bottom. If the bottom is hard and smooth, the bottom depiction is narrow and dense. If the bottom is soft mud or sand, the depiction will be thick and less dense. This indicates much of the signal is absorbed by the soft bottom. If the bottom is rocky or rugged in composition, the depiction is of varying density and textured in appearance. Surface

USING THE 150SX CONTROL FUNCTIONS Thermocline Second Return 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 depth of the primary bottom return. The second return is most likely to occur in shallow water and in areas of relatively hard bottom. Fish ID. The 150SX uses advanced signal processing to further evaluate any s

USING THE 150SX CONTROL FUNCTIONS Light. LIGHT controls the unit’s display backlight. With the unit powered on, press LIGHT once to turn the backlight on “high.” Press LIGHT a second time to turn the backlight on “low,” and a third time turns the backlight off. The backlight is very effective for low- light and nighttime operation. When the backlight is on, the 150SX will consume more power than with the backlight off. This is important when using the 150SX in a portable configuration powered b

USING THE 150SX MENU FUNCTIONS on personal preference. You can select one of 11 sensitivity settings from -5 to +5. A setting of 0 (factory setting) has no effect on the auto- matic sensitivity control. Increasing the sensitivity (+1 through +5) enables the unit to display the information from progressively smaller sonar returns. By decreasing the sensitivity bias (-1 through -5), the unit effectively filters small sonar returns. In murky or muddy water, it is often helpful to reduce the sensiti

This provides the best display resolution and therefore the best target separation possible. The Depth Range can be adjusted manually. Press MENU repeatedly until the Depth Range menu is visible. Two options are available: Auto and Manual. The manual setting enables you to adjust the current depth range setting. The unit no longe

In shallow water, when the 15' (5m) or 30' (10m) range is in use, the Zoom range is 7¹⁄₂ (2m). If the 60' (20m) or 120' (40m) range is in use, the Zoom range is 15' (5m), if a 180'-480' (60-150m) depth range is in use, the Zoom range is 30' (10m), and if the 600' (185m) range is in use, the Zoom range is 60' (20m). To enable ZOOM, press MENU repeatedly until t
