It can operate as the main Network DEPTH unit either alone or as part of an Integrated Network Instrument System taking inputs directly from a Depth Sensor that plugs directly into the rear of the display.
Only one Network DEPTH unit should have a depth sensor connected to it and set to transducer mode. Up to three more Network DEPTH units can be connected on to the system network, these must be set to repeater mode.
SELECTING THE DISPLAY MODE The Network DEPTH unit has two operating modes. The correct mode must be selected for your network system to operate properly. Transducer mode, the unit uses and displays depth data from a depth sensor connected directly into the display unit.
The Network DEPTH unit can measure and display water depth in the following ranges: If the Network DEPTH unit losses valid depth data, due either the actual depth being outside the working range, • 0.7 to 180 metres or to extreme turbulence in the water the LCD will show 3 •...
SETTING THE DEPTH UNITS The Network DEPTH unit can be set to display depth in Metres M, Feet FT or Fathoms FA. The selected units are used for displayed depth information on all Network instruments on the entire network system.
(transducer) or the keel/outdrive depth. The Network DEPTH unit has factory set D CAL of zero, i.e. the depth is displayed from the transducer. The D CAL value is displayed in the same units as the depth.
SETTING THE DEPTH DATUM D CAL zero, depth from transducer CAL TRA. D CAL positive, depth from waterline CAL W/L. D CAL negative, depth from keel CAL KEEL. NOTE: If the CAL LOCK is set then the D CAL value cannot be changed.
USING THE SIGNAL KEY Press the SIGNAL key to display a letter of merit from A to F, this is an indication of the return echo strength. A is excellent, F is poor. The sea bed can have an effect on the quality of the return echo strength, i.e.
