    Installation Installation guidelines Choose the mounting location carefully, make sure that there are no hidden electrical wires or other parts behind the panel before you drill or cut. Ensure that any holes cut are in a safe position and will not weaken the boat’s structure. If in doubt, consult a qualified boat builder, or marine electronics installer.

  • Page 23 The radar sweep should commence at your vessel (a radar range of zero). You may need to adjust the radar range offset to achieve this. If this is set incorrectly, a large dark circle in the center of the sweep might occur. You might notice straight objects such as straight sea walls or piers having curves or an indentation.

    Radar installed in close proximity to a mast or structure could cause unwanted reflections or interference to appear on the radar image. Use the sector blanking feature to stop the radar from transmitting on up to four sectors in the image. The blanking occurs on the main radar PPI and on the radar overlay on a chart.
  • Page 25 Ú Note: Changing the mode requires that all connected sources are restarted. Overlay DownScan When a DownScan capable transducer is connected to your system, you can overlay DownScan images on the regular Echosounder image. When overlay DownScan is activated, the Echosounder panel menu expands to include basic DownScan options.
  • Page 26 Search depth Noise may cause the echosounder to search for unrealistic depths. By setting the search depth manually the system displays echoes received from objects within the set depth range. Depth offset All transducers measure water depth from the transducer to the bottom. As a result, water depth readings do not account for the distance from the transducer to the lowest point of the boat in the water or from the transducer to the water surface.

  • Page 27: Autopilot Settings

    Transducer type Transducer type is used for selecting the transducer model connected to the sonar module. The transducer selected will determine what frequencies the user can select during sonar operation. In some transducers with built-in temperature sensors, the temperature reading may be inaccurate or not available at all if the wrong transducer is selected.

    For setting up the Instrument bar or a gauge on the Instrument page with Fluid Level device data, refer to the Operator Manual. Ú Note: A maximum of 5 tanks is supported using Fluid Level devices.

  • Page 33 Ú Note: The following information may not always indicate an issue that can be simply resolved with minor adjustment to network layout or connected devices and their activity on the network. However, Rx and Tx errors are most likely indicating issues with the physical network, which may be resolved by correcting termination, reducing backbone or drop lengths, or reducing the number of network nodes (devices).

    SimNet groups This function is used to control parameter settings, either globally or in groups of units. The function is used on larger vessels where several units are connected to the NMEA 2000 network. By assigning several units to the same group, a parameter update on one unit will have the same effect on the rest of the group members.
