20. im The Echo mode displays the return signals as they are received from the transducer Fish appear as arches and not as fish symbols The length of the arch will indicate the relative size of the return echo and size of the fish The Echo mode enables the unit to display echoes caused by surface turbulence thermal layers plankton or transducer noise when the boat is moving This mode is very useful for the experienced user The digital display in this sample window is indicating the depth of the bottom The display units are also user selectable NAVMAN Fishfinder User Manual Autofish mode The Autofish mode automatically analyses the return echoes and displays echoes with fish icons the bigger the echoes the bigger the icon The return echo is caused when the sonar beam strikes the air stored in the fishes swim bladder Certain types of fish have larger swim bladders than normal so the size of the icon is not always a reliable way to indicate the relative size of the fish In the Autofish mode unnecessary surface noise is reduced from the top of the screen This mode is recommended when your boat is moving along at higher speeds 11 Analogue scope function F Analogue Scope Current Echo The Analogue scope function is available in either the Echo or Autofish modes This feature displays an intensity graph of the current echoes down the right hand side of the screen The information can be

Therefore the performance of the fishfinder especially at higher speeds will not be satisfactory Transom Mount Transducer Location The transducer can be installed on any outboard or sterndrive powered boat The transom mount transducer has a safety kick up mounting bracket to help minimise damage to the transducer should it impact the bottom or floating debris in the water Select a position for the transducer that will e allow the transducer a smooth flow of water over its surface at all times e ensure a mount as deep in the water as possible e be clear of any interference from the trailer when launching or retrieving the boat e be away from planing strakes or other projections from the hull that may cause aerated water to flow over the face of the transducer e be away from the propeller e be at least 150 mm 6 away from the keel of the boat Poor Location Poor Angle Good Location and Angle Good Location Mounting Once the best location of the transducer is determined hold the transducer and bracket against the transom The bottom surface of the transducer needs to sit parallel to the surface of the water for the best signal return The lower face of the transducer should extend down below the bottom of the hull so that it will be below the surface of the water at high speeds See fig 2 1 fig 2 1 Minimum immersion required Mark the transom through the bracket slots to
22. correctly place the two outer screws Now drill the two holes in the centre of the slots This will allow you to adjust the transducer position later on if required Use two of the three stainless screws supplied to attach the bracket to the transom Ensure the lower face of the transducer is parallel with the ground see fig 3 1 and 3 2 Tighten the two screws fig 3 1 DEEP VEE Br vn NAVMAN Fishfinder User Manual FLAT BOTTOM HULL Finally drill a hole and insert the third screw in the middle of the bracket It is advisable to fill holes with a sealing compound before inserting screws see fig 3 3 e Other Types of Transducers It is possible to use your NAVMAN Fish Finder with all the NAVMAN Transducers Range including thru hull mounting For this purpose you need to purchase the Y adaptors for the FISH400 and FISH440 which will allow you to separate the power cable from the transducer s cable Model FISH400 4 pin Fuji LE Model FISH440 2 pin Fuji 8 pin Fuji NAVMAN Fishfinder User Manual Depth Speed Wiring connection Electrical protection e Your fishfinder has an internal electrical protection system for over voltage and short circuit situations It is not necessary to use a fuse or a circuit breaker If possible route the transducer cable away from other wiring on the boat Electrical noise from engine wiring bilge pumps and other equipment can affect the display
23. Alarms There are three different types of alarms Fish Shallow and Deep All the alarms activate the internal buzzer if their alarm condition is met The buzzer will provide three different alarm signals A short alarm signal for a mid water echo such as a fish a long continuous signal for a shallow water alarm and a series of short signals for a deep alarm Each alarm can be individually enabled or disabled All enabled alarms can be simultaneously disabled with a single key press The alarm indicator bar on the top left of the display shows which alarms have been selected They are fish F shallow S and deep D Fish Alarm Alerts you with a single short signal when an object that could be a fish is detected The alarm for a small fish is shorter than the alarm for a bigger fish Shallow Alarm Alerts you when the water depth is shallower than the shallow alarm setting i e the water becomes too shallow Deep Alarm Alerts you when the water depth is deeper the deep alarm setting i e the water becomes to deep Alarms on the FISH440 When either or all of the Fish Shallow or Deep alarms are active they are displayed on the screen When an alarm is triggered there is a beep and the corresponding alarm s figure flashes on and off Anchor Drag Alarm The Shallow and Deep Alarms can be set just above and below your anchored depth An alarm will sound if your anchor drags and you drift into deeper or s
