    531528-1_A - 757c_787c2_&_787c2i_Man_Eng.qxp How Sonar Works Sonar technology is based on sound waves. The 700 Series™ Fishing System uses sonar to locate and define structure, bottom contour and composition, as well as depth directly below the transducer. Your 700 Series™ Fishing System sends a sound wave signal and determines distance by measuring the time between the transmission of the sound wave and when the sound wave is reflected off of an object;...

The sound pulses are transmitted at various frequencies depending on the application. Very high frequencies (455 kHz) are used for greatest definition but the operating depth is limited.

We will promote and implement environmentally sound processes in support of national and international regulations.
  • Page 152 Beam (Sonar Beam): A sonar beam is the wide, cone-shaped projection of sound waves formed as sound travels underwater. See Cone Angle. Big Digits View: Big Digits View is a Humminbird® feature that displays the sonar graph and enlarged digital readouts for easy reading from a distance. This is a great tool when monitoring the digital depth is important - such as with higher boat speeds, or when viewing the unit from a distance.
  • Page 153 Fish and other objects close to the bottom that fall within the dead zone will probably not be visible in the sonar beam. Precision sonar beams, such as the Humminbird® 20° beam, have a smaller dead zone than wider sonar beams.
  • Page 154 When this distance change is graphed on the display, an arch appears. Fish ID+™: Fish ID+™ is a Humminbird® feature that uses advanced sonar processing algorithms to determine if a detected object is likely to be a fish. When the sonar signal from an object meets strict parameters, the unit draws a Fish Symbol (or icon) and the digital depth of the target.
  • Page 155 Many Humminbird® units can operate across a very broad depth range (up to 2500 feet) which causes the unit to "look" up to that full depth under some circumstances.
  • Page 156 Page 15 Hydrodynamic noise can be overcome by proper transducer installation. Many Humminbird® products have a Noise Filter menu setting that allows the user to clear the screen of noise that is difficult to eliminate. Pixels: Pixels are the "picture elements", or small square blocks, that make up the image on the LCD.
  • Page 157 DualBeam PLUS™. Quick Disconnect Mount: The Quick Disconnect Mounting system is an exclusive Humminbird® feature that permits the unit to be easily removed from the mounting base by pressing a release button, and re-installed by simply snapping it back into place. All cable connections are made when installing, so that no separate wiring connections are required.
  • Page 158 Many Humminbird® units operate at up to 40 times per second when in single frequency operation. Due to the limitation of the speed of sound in water, the update rate begins to slow as depth increases to deeper than 50 feet.
  • Page 159 (drop-offs, humps, and holes), standing structure (stumps, timbers, brush piles) and a wide range of other potential objects (sunken boats, reefs). Humminbird® units excel at showing structure with great detail over a wider area due to unique sonar configurations developed for the angler.
  • Page 160 See Transducer and Noise. TripLog: TripLog is a Humminbird® feature that provides an on-screen counter for Elapsed Time, Average Speed and Total Distance traveled, and requires a speed input to activate the feature. TripLog appears on the Big Digits View, and can be reset to zero through the TripLog menu.
  • Page 161 Humminbird® offers One-Touch® Zoom which allows the zoom feature to be easily accessed from the regular sonar view with just one key press, eliminating the need to use menus to access the feature.
  • Page 162 GPS & Navigation Terms: Acquisition Time: The length of time that a GPS receiver typically takes to determine a position from at least three satellites. Humminbird® GPS receivers provide very fast acquisition times (under one minute), permitting users to get out on the water faster.
  • Page 163 A series of geosynchronous satellites broadcast a unique signal toward the earth once per second. A GPS receiver, such as that included with many Humminbird® products, receives the signals from these satellites and is able to determine position based on very slight differences in the time each signal is received and the receiver’s...
