1. Operating Instructions

Operation:

Your EchoPilot 3D forward sonar is designed to be simple to operate and easy to interpret, though

practice always helps with understanding any new instrument on a boat. The 3D looks under the

water up to 200 metres ahead of the vessel. The distance ahead that the 3D FLS sees depends on

the depth of water below the boat and the laws of physics. The transmit 'ping' radiates at all angles

down and out from the vessel, hits the sea bed and some of it is returned to the transducer's

receivers.

As the 'ping' travels further away from the boat, it hits the sea bed at an increasingly acute angle.

At a certain point the angle will be so acute that the 'ping' is not returned, and the sea bed

information is lost - this determines the maximum view ahead, though often 10 to 20 times depth

ahead.

In the horizontal plane the 3D covers an area about 30 degrees either side of the centre line of the

boat or 60 degrees overall.

Calibration in degrees can be seen on the display. In the vertical plane the 3D can see from under

the transducers to the sea surface ahead. The depth colour scale on the right-hand side of the

screen shows red for the shallowest readings, through the colours of the rainbow up to dark blue

for the deepest readings.

All depths shown are the depths below the sea surface. Depth contour lines are shown on the

display to assist interpretation.

To Switch on:

To switch on the EchoPilot 3D press the power button. There is a five second delay between

pressing the button and the LED on the keypad illuminating. Shortly after the LED is lit the display

will show the EchoPilot logo. From this point the system will take approximately 30 seconds to

boot.

The system will boot straight into the EchoPilot 3D user interface, set to the 40m range and will

start working straight away.
