  • Page 3 Page 4 HOW SONAR WORKS Sonar technology is based on sound waves. The HDR 610 Digital Depth Gauge uses sonar to determine depth directly below the transducer. Your HDR 610 Digital Depth Gauge consists of two components: the HDR 610 sonar unit and the transducer. The sonar unit contains the transmitter and receiver, as well as the user controls and display.

    Before you start installation, we encourage you to read these instructions carefully in order to get the full benefit from your HDR 610 Digital Depth Gauge. You will install your HDR 610 depthsounder first, then your transducer. When you are done with both of these installation tasks, you should perform a final installation test before operating your HDR 610.

    Mounting, Puck Transducers Only section instead. In-hull mounting generally produces good results in single- thickness fiberglass-hulled boats. Humminbird® cannot guarantee depth performance when transmitting and receiving through the hull of the boat, since some signal loss occurs. The amount of loss depends on hull construction and thickness, as well as the installation position and process.
