2-2 Selecting a Display Mode The CSH-83/84 provides three display modes: normal sonar pic- ture, echo sounder(E/S) combination, and history display com- bination. Those modes may be selected with the NORM, E/S and HIST keys. T able 2-1 Display mode description Mode Description The sonar picture appears over the entire screen. This mode is useful fo[...]

2-3 Selecting a Display Range Operate the RANGE control to select a display range. The range selected appears at the top of the screen. Setting the T ilt Angle The tilt angle shows the direction to which the sound wave is emitted. When the sound wave is emitted horizontally , the tilt angle is said to be zero degrees and when emitted vertically , 9[...]

2-4 How to discriminate fish echoes from the seabed The figure below illustrates how two fish schools a and b are displayed on the screen using three different tilt angles. Case 1: T ilt angle 30 to 40 degrees. Fish school is obscured by the seabed. Case 2: T ilt angle 10 to 20 degrees. Fish school is located above the seabed (midwater). Case 3: T [...]

2-5 Tilt angle for surface fish Sound emitted from the sonar transducer forms a circle-shaped beam with a width of approximately 12 degrees in the vertical direction (vertical beam width). The tilt angle is indicated by the angle between the center line of the beam and the horizontal plane. Then, if the tilt angle is set to 0 degrees, the center li[...]

2-6 Suitable tilt angle The figure below illustrates the relationship among tilt angle, depth and detection range. Refer to it to find out the suitable tilt angle for a given depth/detection range. 100 (200) 200 (400) 300 (600) 400 (800) Range (m) 0° 5° 10° 15° 20(40) 40(80) 60(120) 80(160) 100(200) 200(400) Vertical width of sonar beam 12° 21[...]

2-7 Adjusting the Gain The GAIN control adjusts receiver sensitivity (gain). Adjust it so fish echoes are clearly displayed with minimal noise on the screen. T oo high a setting not only displays excess noise and makes it difficult to discriminate wanted echoes but also causes seabed echoes to be painted in strong colors, resulting in echoes being [...]

3-1 FINE TUNING THE PICTURE Eliminating Unwanted Feeble Echoes Echoes from targets such as seabed and fish return to the trans- ducer in order of distance to them, and when we compare their intensities at the transducer face, those from nearer targets are generally stronger when their reflecting properties are nearly equal. The sonar operator will [...]

3-2 4. When sea surface reflections or plankton layers disturb the picture, decrease appropriate TVG option by one or two steps by pressing – (minus) key . 5. Locate fish school on a long range setting (about 800 meters) which is approaching own ship. 6. Adjust the tilt to keep the fish school in the center of the sonar beam, namely , fish school[...]

3-3 Suppressing Seabed T ail AGC (data setting window: SIGNAL, SIGNAL PROCESS) The AGC functions to automatically reduce the receiver gain only against strong echoes such as the seabed or a large fish school. Since weak echoes remain unaffected, a small fish school becomes easier to detect. Adjust it so that the AGC works only on seabed reflections[...]

3-4 Suppressing Seabed and Sea Surface Reflections in Shallow W aters Data setting window: TVG•TX, OUTPUT In shallow fishing grounds with hard or rocky bottom, seabed reflections often interfere with wanted fish echoes and they can not be eliminated suf ficiently with the aforementioned TVG and AGC controls, especially when the TIL T is set to a [...]

3-5 1. T urn off the TX switch and operate all on-board equipment one by one while observing the picture. 2. Run the boat at various speeds to check if the noise is speed dependent. If neither of the above two steps has effect on the picture, adjust one of the following: Interference rejector (data setting window: SIGNAL, SIGNAL PROCESS) This contr[...]

3-6 Setting Noise limiter (data setting window: SIGNAL, SIGNAL PROCESS) W eak, unwanted reflections, colored light-blue or green, appear when the water is dirty , plankton layers exists, or due to ship’ s noise. The noise limiter (NL) can reduce the effects of these unwanted reflections–raising the setting causes them to become bluish to backgr[...]

When a narrow tilt angle is used, sea surface reflections cover a large area as illustrated below . Sea surface Sea surface 15° Tilt angle indication Sea surface re[...]

11-4 False Echo by Sidelobe An ultrasonic wave is emitted only in the direction set by the TIL T lever , however there are some emissions outside the main beam. These are called sidelobes. The ener gy of the sidelobe is fairly weak but when the water is comparatively shallow and the bottom is rocky and hard, strong signals are detected by the sidel[...]

12-1 W ARNINGS Overvoltage W arning If the input voltage to this unit rises above 125 V AC, the over- voltage detection circuit activates, an alarm sounds and the mes- sage OVER VOL T AGE appears at the screen center . If this occurs, retract the transducer , turn the power of f and check the ship’ s mains voltage. It should be about 100 V AC. Un[...]
