There are two main components to an ID Sixty installation: The transducer, which you will install
on the transom or inside the hull, and the ID Sixty unit, which mounts in the dash or console. The
transducer and ID Sixty communicate by means of a cable, and are powered by your boat's 12-
volt DC battery.
The transducer and ID Sixty use the basic principles of sonar to reveal objects beneath the
water's surface. The ID Sixty continuously sends electronic signals to the transducer, which
converts them to ultrasonic signals that it aims toward the bottom, then immediately echoes back
to the transducer. As the transducer receives these signals, it converts them back too electronic
signals for display on the ID Sixty dial.

HOW THE ID SIXTY WORKS

The ID Sixty uses the returned information to generate signals that are displayed on a dial. The
information is constantly updated as you travel across the water. The ID Sixty unit measures the
amount of time it takes the signal to travel from the transducer to the reflecting object and back
again. This time is then converted into feet and the number of feet to the object is indicated on the
calibrated dial with the spinning lamp. The lamp revolves around the dial once for each sixty-foot
reading.
