2 How Sonar W orks How Sonar W orks Sonar technology is based on sound wav es. The 300 Series™ F ishfinder uses sonar to locate and define structur e, bottom contour and composition, as well as depth directly below the tr ansducer .
3 When all the echo es are view ed side by side, an easy to interpret “gr aph“ of the bottom, fish, and structure appear s. The sou nd pu ls es are t ran smi tt ed at var iou s frequencies depending on the applica tion. V ery high frequencies (455 kHz) ar e used for grea test definition but the operating depth is limited.
4 DualBeam PLUS™ Sonar (DualBeam PLUS™ models only [385ci]) Y our 3 8 5c i Fi sh f i nd e r uses a 200/83 kHz DualBeam PLUS™ sonar system with a wide (60°) area of cov erage. DualBeam PL US™ sonar has a narro wly focused 20° center beam, surrounded b y a second beam of 60°, expanding your cov erage to an ar ea equal to your depth.
5 Down Imaging™ Sonar (Down Imaging™ models only [385ci DI]) Y our 385ci DI F ishfinder uses Down Imaging™ technology . T he Down Imaging™ transducer scans the w ater with razor -thin, high-definition beams. T he beams are wide (side to side) but very thin fr ont to back.
6 Dual Beam Ice T ransducer (o pti ona l- pur ch as e XI 9 20 I ce T r ans du cer o nly ) Y our Fi s hf i n de r s up p or t s t he o p t io n al - purchase XI 9 20 Ice T ransducer which provide s selectable dual-frequency sonar with a wide area of cov erage.
7 How GPS W orks Y our 300 Series™ Fishfinder also supports GPS (Global P ositioning System) and chartplotting. It uses GPS and sonar to determine your position, displa y it on a grid, and provide detailed underw ater inf ormation. GPS uses a constellation of satel lites that continually send radio signals to the earth.
8 What’s on the Sonar Display What’s on the Sonar Displa y T he 300 Series™ Fi shfinder can displa y a variet y of useful infor mation about NO TE: Entries in this view that list (with T emp/Speed or GPS Receiver) ar e available if either the information from the GPS r eceiver will be displayed on the vie w.
9 What’s on the Sonar Display the ar ea under your boat, including the following items: device is connected to the 300 Series™ Fishfinder . If both devices are connected, then only RT S (Re al T i me So nar ) W ind ow ™ Str uc tur e - W he re f is h ma y be h id in g.
10 Understanding the Sonar Display It is important to understand the significance of the display . The display does not sho w a literal 3-dimensional repr esentation of what is under the wate r .
11 SwitchFir e™ SwitchFire™ contr ols how the sonar r eturns are display ed in the Sonar V iews. SwitchFire™ sett ings are av ailable in the Sonar Menu T ab. T o see the maximum sonar information a vailable within the transducer beam so more fish arches and better jig tr acking are sho wn, choose Max Mode.
12 Bottom Presentation As the boat mov es, the unit charts the changes in depth on the display to cr eate a profile of the Bottom Contour . T he type of bottom can be determined from the return charted on the display . A Hard Bottom suc h as c om pa cte d se di me nt or f la t r oc k ap pea r s as a t hi nne r li ne a cr os s th e di sp la y .
13 Structure ID® repr esents weak returns in blue and str ong returns in r ed. WhiteLine™ highlights the str ongest sonar returns in white, r esulting in a distinctive outline.
14 What’s on the Do wn Imaging™ Display Down Imaging™ uses its unique tr ansducer and sonar technology to provide profiling beams produce the detailed sonar da ta that you see on the displa y .
15 What’s on the Down Imaging™ Display (Down Imaging ™ models only [385ci DI]) in fo rm at io n abo ut t he a re a di re ct ly be lo w y ou r bo at .
16 Understanding the Down Imaging™ Display The images y ou see on the Down Imaging™ display ar e produced using sonar technology . Each time the unit pings, a strip of data repr esenting all the echoes receiv ed by the transducer ar e put together on the display to f orm the image that you see.
17 Down Imaging™ Sensitivity Use Imaging Sensitivity to control how the sonar returns appear on the display . Increase the sensitivity to rev eal weaker r eturns that ma y be of interest, especially in very clear wa ter or greater depths.
V iews The sonar and na vigation inf ormation from your Fish finder is displayed on y our screen in a variety of easy -to-read views. T here ar e many views a vailable on y our Fishfinder . • Default Vie w: When y ou first po wer up the 385ci control head, Sonar Vie w will be the default vie w .
