    Note: Connecting to the same circuit as other devices such as tachometers, radios or trim switches may cause electrical interference. Caution: To protect both the cable and the display unit, Bottom Line highly recommends that you install an in-line 1-amp fast-blow fuse (available at automotive stores) in series with the red wire at the battery.
  • Page 7 Contrast is the darkness or lightness of the display. Both your CONTRAST – viewing angle and the ambient temperature affect the contrast. The 2100 has a display backlight for use when there is not enough LIGHT – daylight to view the screen. The backlight also generates heat and can be used to help warm the display in cold weather.

  • Page 9: Fishing With The 2100

    2100 ISHING WITH THE How Your 2100 Works The 2100 uses active SONAR, short for Sound Navigation and Ranging, to locate and identify objects in the water. The transducer sends out short bursts of ultrasonic sound waves into the water and then listens for echoes to come back from objects and the bottom.

  • Page 10: Maintenance

    Greyscale The 2100 display uses a grey checkered pattern to display the strongest signals, which are usually from a hard bottom (see Figure 2). Weaker signals above the bottom are displayed as black. This allows you to separate the bottom from weeds and to differentiate a hard bottom from a soft, muddy one.
