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 PLUS™ Sonar (561, 570) The 561 Fishfinder and 570 Fishfinder use 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. DualBeam PLUS™ sonar returns can be blended together, viewed separately, or compared side- by-side. DualBeam PLUS™ is ideal for a w

Down Imaging™ Sonar (561 DI, 570 DI, and 571 HD DI) The 561 DI, 570 DI, and 571 HD DI Fishfinders use Down Imaging™ technology. The Down Imaging™ transducer scans the 800kHz 45° water with razor-thin, high-definition beams. 455kHz 75° The beams are wide (side to side) but very 16° thin front to back. 455kHz 25° 200kHz The Down Imaging™ beams can be operated at two frequencies: 455 kHz (75°) or 800 kHz 75 Degree Total Coverage (45°). Select 455 kHz for the best overall image quality and depth. Se

What’s on the Sonar Display The 500 Series™ Fishfinder can display a variety of useful information about Depth - (water depth) can be set to alarm when the water becomes too shallow. Temperature - Water surface temperature. Timer - Elapsed time with Temp/Speed Accessory. Distance - Distance traveled with Temp/Speed Accessory. Average Speed - Average speed reading with Temp/Speed Accessory. Second Sonar Return - When the sonar signal bounces between the bottom and the surface of the water and bac

A thermocline typically appears as a continuous band of gray levels moving across the display at the same depth. Structure - Where fish may be hiding. 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 d

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

Sonar Returns and Bottom View Bottom View, Inverse Palette As the boat moves, the unit charts the HIGH changes in depth on the display to create a Intensity Return profile of the Bottom Contour. The Sonar View displays the sonar return intensity using gray scale. Strong returns often result from rocky or hard bottoms (compacted sediment, rocks, MEDIUM Intensity Return fallen trees), while weaker returns often result from soft bottoms (sand, mud), vegetation, and small fish. The shades used to re

Inverse is a method where weak returns are shown with dark pixels and strong returns with lighter pixels. This has the benefit of ensuring that weak signals will be clearly visible on the display. Structure ID® represents weak returns as light pixels and strong returns as dark pixels. This has the benefit of ensuring that strong returns will be clearly visible on the display. WhiteLine™ highlights the strongest sonar returns in white resulting in a distinctive outline. This has the benefit of cl

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.
