Tow Cable:
The tow cable consists of three electrical cables inside of a hollow-core polypropylene rope. It is tough, durable, and
highly abrasion resistant. Cable is available in 150 to 500' lengths.
Sonar Processor:
The Sonar Processor provides an interface between the Fish and the computer. It receives signals from the Fish,
amplifies them, and sends them to the computer using an integrated PC interface board. The Sonar Processor also
receives the latest GPS data from the boat's GPS receiver and forwards the data to the computer so that the data from
the Fish is matched to a GPS position for later reference.
The Sonar Processor contains two sets of operator amplifier adjustments, the Left and Right Channel TVG, to allow
precise control of the signals from the Fish.

Computer:
The Sonar Processor has an integrated interface board that converts the analog signals to digital, and inputs the signal
to the computer. The computer takes the digital signal, displays it, and stores it for future reference. The software has
numerous Tool Bars and Pull Down menus for controlling the display. There is also communications from the Computer
to the Fish which allow the operator to control different functions within the Fish.
To get the proper prospective of the information being displayed on the screen; picture the fish in the center, and at the
top of the screen. The transmitted beam is traveling from the center of the screen out to each edge of the display. The
distance covered from the center of the page to the edge is dependent on the Range setting (5m, 10m, 25m, 50m, etc).
After each transmit pulse, all the information on the screen moves down one line and the new information is displayed
in the top line (the oldest line, at the bottom, drops off the screen). The process is repeated indefinitely.
