For centuries, sailors have been searching for a reliable and precise method of travelling the world’s waterways. From celestial navigating to the modern navigation techniques as Loran, Decca navigator, Omega or Transit Satnav, each system has had its problems with weather, range and reliability.

  • Page 10 SVS-560/460 series Introduction HOW GPS WORKS Currently, the GPS constellation consists of 26 orbiting satellites (including 3 spares), but this number will increase in the future. The GPS receiver computes an accurate position by calculating the distance to the GPS satellites that orbit the earth.
  • Page 11 SVS-560/460 series Introduction [The GPS position calculation] As illustrated in the previous figure, the position is calculated as the meeting point of three spheres, which are drawn around the three satellites with diameters d1, d2 and d3. Position Fixing Accuracy: HDOP The GPS fix accuracy is due to the locations of 3 satellites in the sky.

    Installation of GPS ANTENA The installation of the GPS ANTENNA. The GPS ANT must be installed at the highest area of the boat and the easiest place to receive the signal from the satellites. If there are obstacles around the GPS ANT, it isn't able to receive all signals. The receiving time could be longer or the receiving power would be weaker.
  • Page 13 SVS-560/460 series Introduction #Fishfinder - How it works- The SVS-560/460CF echo sounder consists of a transceiver display unit and a dual frequency transducer. An electronic signal pulse is generated in the transmitter section of the display unit. When coupled to the transducer, this signal is converted into an ultrasonic signal and is transmitted toward the bottom.

Coil the extra cable and tie it out of the way. 4th) If transducer cable is not long enough, 15 & 30 foot extension cables are available from SI-TEX When you attach the extension cable, be sure that the connections are tight and watertight. Use Dow Corning DC-4 or an equivalent sealing compound to protect the connector assemblies.
  • Page 18 Installation of the Transducer Installing the Power Cable- ) The 6-foot power cable supplied with the display unit should reach the source of DC power. Connect the power leads directly to the main battery isolation switch or breaker, or route the power leads to the DC power distribution panel.
  • Page 19 Installation of the Transducer Installing a Thru-Hull Transducer Follow these instructions if you are installing the thru-hull transducer. ) Once you have decided where to install the transducer, drill the hole for the part. Begin by drilling a small pilot hole (1/8" or 3mm) from the inside of the hull. (This small hole can be filled easily if the mounting location is not suitable.) Before you drill the hole, be sure you will be able to reach the large nut on the top of the transducer, once it has been mounted.
  • Page 20 Installation of the Transducer Installing a Thru-Hull Transducer ) Go to the inside of the hull and slide the hex nut over the end of the cable. Fit the hex nut over the end of the transducer and tighten it. (On a vessel with a wooden hull, do not tighten the nut completely right away.
  • Page 21 Installation of the Transducer Positioning the Transom-Mount Transducer Follow these instruction if you are installing the transom-mount transducer. Begin by finding the best location for the mounting bracket. Here are the rules: If your boat has one propeller (outboard or inboard-outboard), mount the transducer about 18"(455mm) to the side of the centerline of the boat.

On a boat with a fiberglass hull, the leading edge of the transducer should extend 1/8""(3.2mm) to 1/4""(6mm) below the bottom edge of the hull. See picture 1-3. On an aluminum hull, the transducer should extend a bit more - 1/4"(6mm) to 3/8"(9mm).
