SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

850-165186 / Rev.B
The Simrad PI54 catch monitoring system consists of an
operator station, a hydrophone and an optional echo sounder
transducer. The hydrophone and the transducer are both
mounted under the vessel's hull. The system further comprises a
number of small and robust sensors measuring the conditions on
your fishing gear.
The PI54 catch monitoring system can work with six sensors
simultanously.
The sensors are powered by built-in rechargeable batteries. They
are housed in titanium casings, and designed using advanced
shock absorbing materials. The information collected by the
sensors are sent through the water to the hydrophone by means
of coded sound waves. From the hydrophone, the signals are
sent to the operator unit, which decodes the information,
interprets it, and finally present it to you.
