Sonar troubleshooting
Scrolling image is not being displayed
Possible causes
Sonar disabled
Incorrect transducer selected Check that the correct transducer is selected in the Fishfinder app's
Damaged cables
Damaged or fouled
transducer
Wrong transducer fitted
External sonar module:
SeaTalkhs / RayNet network
problem.
External sonar module:
Software mismatch between
equipment may prevent
communication.
No depth reading / lost bottom lock
Possible causes
Transducer location
Transducer angle
Transducer kicked-up
Power source insufficient
System checks and troubleshooting
Possible solutions
Enable Ping from the Fishfinder app's sounder tab: Menu >
Settings > Sounder > Ping.
Transducer tab: Menu > Settings > Transducer > Ping.
1.
Check that the transducer cable connector is fully inserted and
locked in position.
2. Check the power supply cable and connectors for signs of
damage or corrosion, replace if necessary.
3. With the unit turned on, try flexing the cable near to the display
connector to see if this causes the unit to re-boot/loose power,
replace if necessary.
4. Check the vessel's battery voltage, the condition of the battery
terminals and power supply cables, ensuring connections are
secure, clean and free from corrosion, replace if necessary.
5. With the product under load, using a multi-meter, check for high
voltage drop across all connectors/fuses etc (this can cause the
Fishfinder applications to stop scrolling or the unit to reset/turn
off), replace if necessary.
Check transducer condition, ensuring it is not damaged and is free
from debris/fouling. If necessary, clean or replace your transducer.
After cleaning or replacement coat the transducer using a
water-based anti-fouling paint.
Check product and transducer documentation and ensure that the
transducer is compatible with your system.
• Check that the unit is correctly connected to the Display or
network switch. Check all connections ensuring connections are
secure, clean and free from corrosion, replace if necessary.
Ensure all Raymarine products contain the latest available software,
check the Raymarine website:
software compatibility.
Possible solutions
Check that the transducer has been installed in accordance with
the instructions provided with the transducer.
If the transducer angle is too great the beam can miss the bottom,
adjust transducer angle and recheck.
If the transducer has a kick-up mechanism, check that it has not
kicked up due to hitting an object.
With the product under load, using a multi-meter, check the
power supply voltage as close to the unit as possible to establish
actual voltage when the current is flowing. (Check your product's
Technical specification for power supply requirements.)
