Your radar is designed and constructed to meet the rigorous demands of the marine environment. However, no machine can perform its intended function unless properly installed and maintained. Please carefully read and follow the operation and maintenance procedures set forth in this manual.
We would appreciate feedback from you, the end-user, about whether we are achieving our purposes.
Thank you for considering and purchasing FURUNO.
FOREWORD
Features
The MODEL1722/1722C/1723C series work within our new product-network system called the "NavNet." Each product has an IP address to communicate with NavNet compatible products within the network, using TCP/IP protocol through an Ethernet 10 Base-T network.
The main features are
● Bright 7" screen visible even under direct sunlight.
MODEL1722 series: Monochrome LCD
MODEL1722C series: Color LCD
MODEL1723C series: High-precision color LCD
- User friendly operation with combination of discrete keys, soft keys and cursor pad.
- Accepts FURUNO and Nav-charts™ (NAVIONICS) or C-MAP NT/NT+ charts (C-MAP). All names mentioned are registered trademarks of their respective companies.
- Fast chart redraw.
● Built-in NavNet interface circuit board. - 12-channel GPS Receiver GP-310B with highly accurate position fixing optionally available or GP-320B with WAAS (see the note in below.)
- User programmable function keys.
● Video sounder picture available with connection to optional network sounder.
● ARP function (when connecting with MODEL1833/1833C series)
SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONS
All NavNet products incorporate a "network circuit board" to integrate each NavNet product on board through an optional LAN cable (Ethernet 10BASE-T). Each NavNet product is assigned an IP address to enable transfer of images between other NavNet products. For example, video plotter pictures can be transferred to a radar and vice versa. Pictures received via the NavNet may be adjusted at the receiving end.
The number of display units which may be installed depends on the number of network sounder connected. For a system incorporating three or more products, a "hub" is required to process data.
For one network sounder: one radar and three plotters For two network sounder: one radar and two plotters

WHAT IS WAAS?
WAAS, available in North America, is a provider in the worldwide SBAS (Satellite Based Augmentation System) navigation system. SBAS provides GPS signal corrections to SBAS users, for even better position accuracy, typically better than three meters. Two more SBAS providers are also currently under development, MSAS (Multi-Functional Satellite Augmentation System) for Japan and EGNOS (Euro Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service) for Europe. All provides will be compatible with one another, thus providing "seamless" position fixes to SBAS users.

2.5 Reducing Sea Clutter
2.5.1 How the A/C SEA works
Echoes from waves can be troublesome, covering the central part of the display with random signals known as "sea clutter". The higher the waves and the higher the antenna is above the water, the further the clutter will extend. Sea clutter may affect radar performance because real targets are sometimes hidden by the echoes of small waves. (See the left-hand figure in the figure below.) When sea clutter masks the picture, adjust the A/C SEA to reduce the clutter.
The A/C SEA reduces the amplification of echoes at short ranges (where clutter is the greatest) and progressively increases amplification as the range increases, so amplification will be normal at those ranges where there is no sea clutter.

Sea clutter at screen center

A/C SEA adjusted; sea clutter suppressed
Effect of A/C SEA
2.5.2 Adjusting A/C SEA
A/C SEA should be adjusted so that the clutter is broken up into small dots, and small targets become distinguishable.

RADAR OPERATION
-
When the radar source is the Model 1833/C series radar, A/C SEA and A/C RAIN can be automatically adjusted. Press the A/C AT soft key to select ON or OFF as appropriate. When turned on, it overrides A/C SEA and A/C RAIN settings.
- Press the [GAIN] key on the front panel or RETURN soft key to finish.
2.6 Reducing Precipitation Clutter
The vertical beamwidth of the antenna is designed to see surface targets even when the ship is rolling. However, by this design the unit will also detect rain clutter (rain, snow, hail, etc.) in the same manner as normal targets. Precipitation clutter shows as random dots on the screen.
2.6.1 Adjusting the A/C RAIN
When echoes from precipitation mask solid targets, adjust the A/C RAIN. This split up these unwanted echoes into a speckled pattern, making recognition of solid targets easier.
- Press the [GAIN] key.
- Press the A/C RAIN soft key to show the A/C RAIN window.

A/C RAIN setting window
- Rotate the [ENTER] knob to adjust the A/C RAIN affect. The current level is shown on the A/C RAIN level bar in the A/C RAIN window, and the range of adjustment is 0 to 100. Do not overadjust the A/C RAIN – weak target echoes may be missed.
2. RADAR OPERATION
2.6.2 Adjusting the FTC
To suppress rain clutter from heavy storms or scattered rain clutter, adjust the FTC. The FTC splits up these unwanted echoes into a speckled pattern, making recognition of solid targets easier.
Note: In addition to reducing clutter, the FTC can be used in fine weather to clarify the picture when navigating in confined waters. However, with the circuit active the receiver is less sensitive. Therefore, turn off the FTC, by setting it for "0", when its function is not required.
FTC is available when the radar source is the MODEL1722/1723C series radar.
- Press the [GAIN] key.

2.19 Echo Stretch
Normally, the reflected echoes from long range targets appear on the display as weaker and smaller blips even though they are compensated by the radar's internal circuitry. The echo stretch function magnifies these small blips in all ranges. Two types of echo stretch are available: ES LOW which stretches echoes in bearing direction and ES HIGH which stretches them in both range and bearing directions.

Types of echo stretch
This function magnifies not only targets but also sea clutter and radar interference. For this reason, be sure sea clutter and radar interference are properly suppressed before activating the echo stretch.

2. RADAR OPERATION
2.20 Echo Averaging
The echo average feature, available with selection of a Model 1833/C series network radar as radar source, effectively suppresses sea clutter. Echoes received from stable targets such as ships appear on the screen at almost the same position during every rotation of the antenna. On the other hand, unstable echoes such as sea clutter appear at random positions.
To distinguish real target echoes from sea clutter, echo average performs scan-to-scan correlation. Correlation is made by storing and averaging echo signals over successive picture frames. If an echo is solid and stable, it is presented in its normal intensity. Sea clutter is averaged over successive scans resulting in the reduced brilliance, making it easier to discriminate real targets from sea clutter.
To properly use the echo average function, it is recommended to first suppress sea clutter with the A/C SEA control and then do the following:
- If not displayed, press the [HIDE/SHOW] key to display the radar soft keys.
- Press the SIGNAL PROC. soft key.
- Press the E. AVG soft key to select desired echo averaging.
OFF: No averaging
LOW: Helps distinguish targets from sea clutter and suppresses brilliance of unstable echoes.

2.22 Guard Alarm
The guard alarm allows the operator to set the desired range and bearing for a guard zone. When ships, islands, landmasses, etc. violate the guard zone, an audio alarm sounds and the offending target blinks to call the operator's attention.
CAUTION
- The alarm should not be relied upon as the sole means for detecting possible collision situations.
- A/C SEA, A/C RAIN and GAIN controls should be properly adjusted to be sure the alarm system does not overlook target echoes.
2.22.1 Setting a guard alarm zone
To set a guard alarm zone, set the radar to transmit and do the following:
- Press the [ALARM] key.
- Use the cursor pad to set the cursor on the top left corner (or top right corner) of the guard zone you want to set, then press the SET GUARD1 or SET GUARD2 soft key, depending on which guard zone you want to set.
-
Use the cursor pad to set the cursor on the bottom right corner (or top left corner) of the guard zone area and push the [ENTER] knob.
-
Press RETURN soft key to finish.

2. RADAR OPERATION
The equipment then searches for targets inside the guard zone to determine the guard alarm type. If a target is found inside the guard zone the guard zone type becomes an "Outward guard alarm", and any target exiting, the guard zone will trigger an alarm. If no target is found the guard zone type becomes an "Inward guard alarm", and any targets entering the guard zone will trigger the alarm. The guard alarm type is shown as G1 (G2) IN or G1(G2) OUT.
Note 1: When the radar range is less than the guard zone range, "G1 (G2) IN" or "G1 (G2) OUT" changes to "G1 (G2) ***." The guard alarm function is not available while this indication appears.
Note 2: If the network radar is set to standby while the guard alarm is active, the guard alarm is cancelled. The guard alarm is redisplayed when the radar is set to transmit again.
2.22.2 When the alarm is violated...
Any radar target violating the guard zone will flash, the audio alarm sounds, and the alarm icon appears (red on the color model). Additionally the message "TARGET ENTERED INTO GUARD1(GUARD2)" or "TARGET LEFT FROM GUARD1(GUARD2)" is displayed at the bottom of the screen, depending on the guard zone type. Press the [CLEAR] key to silence the alarm.

Once a target is acquired automatically or manually it is automatically tracked within 0.1 to 32 nm. When the FURUNO heading sensor PG-1000 is connected, RMC sentence (NMEA) is required for true heading data.
Alternatively, you can display the tracks of other ships by receiving the data sentence "TTM" through the NETWORK or NMEA port. However, targets cannot be acquired.
Usage precautions for ARP

WARNING
No one navigational aid should be relied upon for the safety of vessel and crew. The navigator has the responsibility to check all aids available to confirm position. Electronic aids are not a substitute for basic navigational principles and common sense.
- This auto plotter automatically tracks an automatically or manually acquired radar target and calculates its course and speed, indicating them by a vector. Since the data generated by the auto plotter are based on what radar targets are

CAUTION
The plotting accuracy and response of this auto plotter meets IMO standards. Tracking accuracy is affected by the following:
-
Tracking accuracy is affected by course change. One to two minutes is required to restore vectors to full accuracy after an abrupt course change. (The actual amount depends on gyrocompass specifications.)
• The amount of tracking delay is inversely proportional to the relative speed of the target. Delay is on the order of 15-30 -

2. RADAR OPERATION
2.25.8 CPA/TCPA alarm (ARP)
When the predicted CPA of any target becomes smaller than a preset CPA alarm range or its predicted TCPA less than a preset TCPA alarm limit, an audio alarm sounds, which you may silence with the [CLEAR] key. In addition, the target plot symbol of the offending target changes to a triangle and flashes together with its vector. Press the [ALARM] key and the message COLLISION ALARM appears. Press the CLEAR ALARM soft key to acknowledge the alarm. The flashing of the triangle plot symbol continues until you intentionally terminate tracking of the target. The ARP continuously monitors the predicted range at the Closest Point of Approach (CPA) and predicted time to CPA (TCPA) of each target to own ship.
Provided that this feature is used correctly, it will help prevent the risk of collision by alerting you to threatening targets. It is important that gain, A/C SEA, A/C RAIN and other radar controls are properly adjusted and the ARP is set up so that it can track targets effectively.
CPA/TCPA alarm ranges must be set up properly taking into consideration the size, tonnage, speed, turning performance and other characteristics of own ship.
CAUTION
The CPA/TCPA alarm should never be relied upon as the sole means for detecting the risk of collision. The navigator is not relieved of the responsibility to keep visual lookout for avoiding collisions, whether or not the radar or other plotting aid is in use.

2.26 Interpreting the Radar Display
2.26.1 General
Minimum and maximum ranges
Minimum range
The minimum range is defined by the shortest distance at which, using a scale of 1.5 or 0.75 nm, a target having an echoing area of 10 m^2 is still shown separate from the point representing the antenna position. It is mainly dependent on the pulselength, antenna height, and signal processing such as main bang suppression and digital quantization.
Maximum range
The maximum detecting range of the radar, Rmax, varies considerably depending on several factors such as the height of the antenna above the waterline, the height of the target above the sea, the size, shape and material of the target, and atmospheric conditions.
Under normal atmospheric conditions, the maximum range is equal to the radar horizon or a little shorter. The radar horizon is longer than the optical one by about 6% because of the diffraction property of the radar signal. Rmax is given in the following equation.
$$ R _ {\max} = 2. 2 \times (\sqrt {h 1} + \sqrt {h 2}) $$
where Rmax: radar horizon (nautical miles)
h1: antenna height (m)
h2: target height (m)
2. RADAR OPERATION
Radar resolution
There are two important factors in radar resolution (discrimination): bearing resolution and range resolution.
Bearing resolution
Bearing resolution is the ability of the radar to display the echoes received from two targets, which are at the same range and close together, as separate targets. Bearing resolution is directly proportional to the antenna length, and inversely proportional to the radar's wavelength.
Range resolution
Range resolution is the ability to display the echoes received from two targets, which are on the same bearing and close to each other, as separate targets.
Bearing accuracy
One of the most important features of the radar is how accurately the bearing of a target can be measured. The accuracy of bearing measurement basically depends on the narrowness of the radar beam. However, the bearing is usually taken relative to the ship's heading, and thus, proper adjustment of the heading marker at installation is an important factor in ensuring bearing accuracy. To minimize error when measuring the bearing of a target, select a range which will put the target as far out to the edge of the radar screen as possible.
Range measurement
Measurement of the range to a target is also a very important function of the radar. Generally, there are two means of measuring range: the fixed range rings
- RADAR OPERATION
2.26.2 False echoes
Occasionally echo signals appear on the screen at positions where there is no target, or disappear even if there are targets. False target situations may be recognized, however, if you understand why they are displayed. Typical false echoes are shown below.
Multiple echoes
Multiple echoes occur when a transmitted pulse returns from a solid object like a large ship, bridge, or breakwater. A second, a third or more echoes may be observed on the display at double, triple or other multiples of the actual range of the target as shown below. Multiple reflection echoes can be reduced and often removed by decreasing the gain (sensitivity) or properly adjusting the [A/C SEA] control.

Multiple echoes
Sidelobe echoes
Every time the radar pulse is transmitted, some radiation escapes on each side of the beam. This stray RE is called sidelobe. If a target exists where it can be
- RADAR OPERATION
Virtual image
A relatively large target close to your ship may be shown at two positions on the screen. One of them is the true echo directly reflected by the target and the other is a false echo which is caused by the mirror effect of a large object on or close to your ship as shown in the figure below. If your ship comes close to a large metal bridge, for example, such a false echo may temporarily be seen on the screen.

Virtual image
Shadow sectors
Funnels, stacks, masts, or derricks in the path of the antenna block the radar beam. If the angle subtended at the antenna is more than a few degrees, a non-detecting sector or blind spot may be produced. Within this sector, targets can not be detected.
2. RADAR OPERATION
2.26.3 SART (Search and Rescue Transponder)
A Search and Rescue Transponder (SART) may be triggered by any X-Band (3 cm) radar within a range of approximately 8 nm. Each radar pulse received causes it to transmit a response which is swept repetitively across the complete radar frequency band. When interrogated, it first sweeps rapidly (0.4 ×s) through the band before beginning a relatively slow sweep (7.5 ×s) through the band back to the starting frequency. This process is repeated for a total of twelve complete cycles. At some point in each sweep, the SART frequency will match that of the interrogating radar and be within the pass band of the radar receiver. If the SART is within range, the frequency match during each of the 12 slow sweeps will produce a response on the radar display, thus a line of 12 dots equally spaced by about 0.64 nautical miles will be shown.
When the range to the SART is reduced to about 1nm , the radar display may show also the 12 responses generated during the fast sweeps. These additional dot responses, which also are equally spaced by 0.64nm , will be interspersed with the original line of 12 dots. They will appear slightly weaker and smaller than the original dots.

General procedure for detecting SART response
- Use the range scale of 6 or 12 nm as the spacing between the SART responses is about 0.6 nm (1125 m) to distinguish the SART.
- Turn off the automatic clutter suppression (if applicable).
- Turn off the Interference Rejector.
General remarks on receiving SART
SART range errors
When responses from only the 12 low frequency sweeps are visible (when the SART is at a range greater than about 1nm ), the position at which the first dot is displayed may be as much as 0.64nm beyond the true position of the SART. When the range closes so that the fast sweep responses are seen also, the first of these will be no more than 150 meters beyond the true position.
Radar bandwidth
This is normally matched to the radar pulselength and is usually switched with the range scale and the associated pulselength. Narrow bandwidths of 3-5 MHz are used with long pulses on long range and wide bandwidths of 10-25 MHz with short pulses on short ranges.
Any radar bandwidth of less than 5 MHz will attenuate the SART signal slightly, so it is preferable to use a medium bandwidth to ensure optimum detection of the SART.
Radar side lobes
As the SART is approached, sidelobes from the radar antenna may show the SART responses as a series of arcs or concentric rings. These can be removed
2. RADAR OPERATION
A/C SEA control
For optimum range SART detection, this control should be set to the minimum. Care should be exercised as wanted target in sea clutter may be obscured. Note also that in clutter conditions the first few dots of the SART response may not be detectable, irrespective of the setting of the anti-clutter sea control. In this case, the position of the SART may be estimated by measuring 9.5 nm from the furthest dot back towards own ship.
Some sets have automatic/manual anti-clutter sea control facilities in which case the operator should switch to manual.
A/C RAIN control
This should be used normally (to break up areas of rain) when trying to detect a SART response which, being a series of dots, is not affected by the action of the anti-clutter rain circuitry. Note that racon responses, which are often in the form of a long flash, will be affected by the use of this control.
Some sets have automatic/manual anti-clutter rain control facilities in which case the operator should switch to manual.
Note: This SART information is excerpted from IMO SN/Circ 197 Operation of Marine Radar for SART Detection.
2.26.4 Bacon (Radar Beacon)
A racon is a radar transponder which emits a characteristic signal when triggered by a ship's radar (usually only the 3 centimeter band). The signal may be emitted on the same frequency as that of the triggering radar, in which case it is

The data shown in the nav data window depends on the status of the NAV soft key and the cursor.

3.1.2 Compass display
The compass display, displayed at the bottom half of the screen in the combination display, provides steering information. The compass rose shows two triangles: the black triangle (hollow on monochrome model) shows the bearing to destination waypoint and the red (solid on monochrome) triangle, which moves with ship's course, shows own ship's course.
The water temperature and depth graphs, which require appropriate sensors, show the latest 10 minutes of temperature and depth data. The range of the depth graph is 50 feet and it is automatically adjusted with depth.

Reading the XTE (cross-track error) monitor
The XTE monitor, located below the compass rose, shows the amount you are off course and the direction to steer to return to course. The own ship marker shows the direction and amount your ship is off course. It is shown in black when the amount of cross-track error is within the XTE monitor range and yellow when it is over. An arrow appears at the right or left side of the XTE monitor and it shows the direction to steer to return to intended course. (For the color model the arrow is shown in red when you should steer left, and green when you should steer right.) In the example on the previous page you would steer right to return to course. To maintain course, steer the vessel so the own ship marker stays at the center of the XTE monitor.

3.1.3 Highway display
The highway display, displayed at the lower half of the screen in the combination display, provides a graphic presentation of ship's track along intended course. It is useful for monitoring ship's progress toward a waypoint. The own ship marker shows relation between ship and intended course. The XTE monitor shows the direction and amount your vessel is off course – the arrow shows the direction to steer to return to your course and the numeric the distance you are off course. Using the figure below as an example, you would steer right 0.009 nm to return to course. To maintain course, steer the vessel so the own ship marker stays aligned with the intended course line.

The nav data display provides comprehensive navigation data. The user may select what data to display and where to display it, on the NAV DATA DISPLAY SETUP menu. For details see paragraph "5.8 Nav Data Display Setup."

With connection of the optional network sounder you can show video sounder images on the display.
4.1 Principle of Operation
The video sounder determines the distance between its transducer and underwater objects such as fish, lake bottom or seabed and displays the results on screen. It does this by utilizing the fact that an ultrasonic wave transmitted through water travels at a nearly constant speed of 4800 feet (1500 meters) per second. When a sound wave strikes an underwater object such as fish or sea bottom, part of the sound wave is reflected back toward the source (transducer). Thus by calculating the time difference between the transmission of a sound wave and the reception of the reflected sound wave, the depth to the object can be determined.
The entire process begins in the network sounder. Transmitter power is sent to the transducer as a short pulse of electrical energy. The electrical signal produced by the transmitter is converted into an ultrasonic signal by the transducer and transmitted into the water. Any returning signals from intervening objects (such as a fish school) are received by the transducer and converted into an electrical signal. The signals are then amplified in the amplifier section, and finally, displayed on screen.
The picture displayed is made up of a series of vertical scan lines, one for each transmission. Each line represents a snapshot of what has occurred beneath the
There are seven display modes from which to choose: dual frequency, single frequency, marker zoom, bottom zoom, bottom lock, bottom discrimination, and A-scope
To select a display;
- Press the [DISP] key and select a sounder display.
- If not displayed, press the [HIDE/SHOW] key to show the sounder soft keys.
- Press the DISPLAY MODE soft key to show the display mode window.

- Use the cursor pad to select a display.
- Press the RETURN soft key to close the window.
Note: On menus which show the RETURN soft key you may use it or the ENTER knob to register setting and close the window.
Indications on the single frequency display
Note 1: The water temperature display requires an appropriate water
Dual-frequency display
The dual-frequency display provides both 50 kHz and 200 kHz pictures. This display is useful for comparing the same picture with two different sounding frequencies.

Dual-frequency display
LF picture
The sounder uses ultrasonic pulses to detect bottom conditions. The lower the frequency of the pulse, the wider the detection area. Therefore, the low frequency is useful for general detection and judging bottom condition.
HF picture
The higher the frequency of the ultrasonic pulse the better the resolution. Therefore, the high frequency is ideal for detailed observation of fish school.

The marker-zoom display expands a selected area of the normal sounder picture to full vertical size of the screen on the left-half window. You may specify the portion to expand by operating the VRM (Variable Range Marker), which you can shift with the [ENTER] knob. The area between the VRM and zoom marker is expanded. The length of the segment is equal to one division of the depth scale.

Bottom-zoom display
The bottom-zoom display expands bottom and bottom fish echoes by the zoom range selected on the sounder range setup menu (see paragraph 5.9.3). A bottom displayed with a short echo tail usually means it is a soft, sandy bottom.
The bottom-lock display provides a compressed normal picture on the right half of the screen and a 3 or 6 meter (10 or 20 feet) wide layer in contact with the bottom is expanded onto the left half of the screen. This mode is useful for discriminating bottom fish from the bottom echo. You may select the bottom lock range from the SOUNDER RANGE SETUP menu. For details, see paragraph 5.9.3.

Bottom-lock display plus normal sounder display
Bottom discrimination display
The bottom discrimination mode displays the bottom echo to help you determine bottom hardness. A bottom displayed with a short echo tail usually means it is a soft, sandy bottom. A long echo tail means a hard bottom.
The A-scope display, available in all modes, shows echoes at each transmission with amplitudes and tone proportional to their intensities, on the right of the screen. It is useful for estimating fish species and seabed composition. To turn on the A-scope display, press the DISPLAY MODE soft key, select display mode desired, then press the A-SCPE soft key to turn the A-scope display on or off as appropriate. For the mode except SINGLE MODE the screen must be split horizontally to show the A-scope presentation.

4.3 Automatic Sounder Operation
Automatic sounder operation is useful when you are preoccupied with other tasks and do not have the time to adjust the display.
4.3.1 How the automatic sounder works
The automatic sounder function automatically selects the proper gain, range scale and clutter suppression level according to depth. It works as follows:
- Range changes automatically to locate the bottom on the lower half of screen. The range jumps to one step shallower range when bottom echoes reach a half way point of the full scale from top and to one step deeper range when they come to the lower edge of the scale.
- The gain is automatically adjusted to display the bottom echo in reddish brown (default color arrangement).
- Clutter, which suppresses low level noise, is automatically adjusted.
4.3.2 Types of automatic sounder modes
Two types of automatic sounder modes are available: CRUISING and FISHING. CRUISING is for tracking the bottom, and FISHING is for searching fish schools. CRUISING uses a higher clutter rejection setting than FISHING therefore it is not recommended for fish detection - weak fish echoes may be erased by the clutter suppression circuit.
4.3.3 How to enable automatic sounder operation
- If not displayed, press the [HIDE/SHOW] key to show the sounder soft keys.
4.4 Manual Sounder Operation
Manual operation is useful for observing fish schools and bottom using fixed gain setting.
The gain, range and range shifting functions used together give you the means to select the depth you can see on screen.
4.4.1 Selecting the manual mode
- If not displayed, press the [HIDE/SHOW] key to show the sounder soft keys.
- Press the AUTO/D. BOX soft key to show the auto mode window.
- Select OFF (MANUAL).

Note 1: On the dual-frequency display, the gain can be independently set for LF and HF. Use the FREQ LF/HF soft key to select the frequency for which to adjust gain.
Note 2: Gain cannot be adjusted in the automatic sounder mode. The message "SOUNDER GAIN CANNOT BE CHANGED IN AUTO MODE" is displayed when you attempt to do so.
4.4.4 Range shifting
The basic range can be thought of as providing a "window" into the water column and range shifting as moving the "window" to the desired depth. The basic range may be shifted up or down as desired by pressing the SHIFT soft key followed by adjusting the [+ RANGE -] key. Press the RETURN soft key to finish.

4.5 Measuring Depth, Time
The VRM functions to measure the depth, and the time cursor measures time.

4.15.1 Zero line
The zero line (sometimes referred to as the transmission line) represents the transducer's position.

Zero line
4.15.2 Bottom echo
Echoes from the bottom are normally the strongest and are displayed in reddish-brown (color model) or darkest tone (monochrome model) but the color (tone on the monochrome model) and width will vary with bottom composition, water depth, frequency, sensitivity, etc.
In a comparatively shallow depth, a high gain setting will cause a second or sometimes a third or a fourth echo to be displayed at the same interval between them below the first echo trace. This is because the echo travels between the bottom and the surface twice or more in shallow depths.
The color (tone for monochrome model) of the bottom echo can be used to help determine the density of the bottom materials (soft or hard). The harder the
4.15.3 Fish school echoes
Fish school echoes will generally be plotted between the zero line and the bottom. Usually the fish school/fish echo is weaker than the bottom echo because its reflection property is much smaller compared to the bottom. The size of the fish school can be ascertained from the density of the display.

Fish school echoes
4.15.4 Surface noise/Aeration
When the waters are rough or the boat passes over a wake, surface noise may appear near the zero line. As surface turbulence is acoustically equivalent to running into a brick wall, the bottom echo will be displayed intermittently. Similar noise sometimes appears when a water temperature difference (thermocline) exists. Different species of fish tend to prefer different temperature zones, so the thermocline may be useful to help identify target fish. 200 kHz tends to show shallow thermoclines better than 50 kHz.
In rough waters the display is occasionally interrupted due to below-the-ship air bubbles obstructing the sound path. This also occurs when the boat makes a quick turn or reverses movement. However, reconsideration of the transducer installation may be necessary if the interruption occurs frequently.

| Spd/Cse Smoothing | During position fixing, ship's velocity (speed and course) is directly measured by receiving GPS satellite signals. The raw velocity data may vary too much depending on receiving conditions and other factors. You can reduce this variance by increasing the smoothing. Like with latitude and longitude smoothing, the higher the speed and course smoothing the higher the smoothing setting, the more the raw data will be averaged. If this setting is high, the response to speed and course changes will slow. For no smoothing, enter all zeros. | 0-999 sec | 5 sec |
| GPS Speed Averaging | Calculation of ETA is based on average ship's speed over a given period. If the period is too long or too short, calculation error will result. Change this setting if calculation error occurs. The default setting is suitable for most conditions. | 0-999 sec 60 sec | |

| Disable Satellite | Every GPS satellite is broadcasting abnormal satellite number(s) in its Almanac, which contains general orbital data about all GPS satellites, including those which are malfunctioning. Using this information, the GPS receiver automatically eliminates any malfunctioning satellite from the GPS satellite schedule. However, the Almanac sometimes may not contain this information.
