INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your choice of the ONW A KF-667 Color Video Sounder . We are confident that you will enjoy many years of operation with this fine piece of equipment. The KF-667 is just one of the many ONW A developments in the field of echo sounding. T he compact, lightweight but rugged unit is easy to install and operate and is sui[...]

Alarms: fish, bottom, water temperature (requires appropriate sensor). Six pulse lengths for excellent performance on both shallow and deep ranges. Universal 12-24 VDC power supply drawing 30 W of power at maximum. Water temperature sensor optionally available.[...]

PRINCIPLE OF OPERA TION This Color V ideo Sounder determines the distance between its transducer a nd underwater objects such as fish, lake bottom or seabed and displays the results on a 5.6-inch color screen. It does this by utilizing the fact t hat a n ultrasonic wave transmitted through water travels at a nearly co nstant s peed of 4800 feet (15[...]

T o turn the power off, turn the switch fully counterclockwise. 2.2 Adjusti ng Brilliance Use the [BRILL] key to adjust the brilli ance. The selected brilliance level is [...]

2.3.2 Display mode description 200K, 50K (high frequency , low frequency) mode The sounder uses ultrasonic pulses to detect bottom conditions. The lower the frequency of the pulse the wider the detection area. Therefore, the 50KHz frequency is useful for general detection and judging bottom conditions, while the 200KHz frequency is useful for detai[...]

The zoom mode to be used can be selected on the main menu with ZOOM MODE. 2-3 Zoom marker (yellow) Normal display Bottom- lock display BOTT OM-LOCK This display provides a compressed normal picture on the top 2/3 of the scr[...]

2.4 Adjust ing Gain The [GAIN] control adjusts the sensitivity of the receiver. A djust it so that a slight amount of noise remains on the screen. Generally , use a higher gain setting for greater depths and a lower setting for shallower waters. Note: The [GAIN] control is inoperative when the automatic mode is active. Gain too high Gain proper Gai[...]

2.6 Selecting Picture Advance Speed The picture advance speed determines how quickly the vertical scan lines run across the screen. When selecting a picture advance speed, keep in mind that a fast advance speed will expand the size of the fish school h orizontally on the screen and a slow advance speed will contract it. 1.Press the [BRILL] and [AUT[...]

3. INTERPRETING THE DISPLA Y 3.1 Zero Line The zero line (sometimes referred to as the transmission line) represents the transducer`s position, and moves off the screen when a deep phased range is used. 3.2 Fish School Echoes Fish school echoes will g enerally be plotted between the zero line and the bottom. U sually the fish school/fish echo is we[...]

3.4 Surface Noise/Aeration When the waters are rough or the boat passes over a wake, surface noise may appear near the zero line.
