4 Inside the hull installations requir e no holes be drilled into the boat and through experimentation, high-speed operation comparable to transom mounting can be achieved. T wo part, slow cure epoxy is r equired to glue the transducer in place. AL TERNA TE TRANSDUCERS AND MOUNTING METHODS The 450TX comes with everything necessary for installation [...]

wood or metal, (which do not conduct sonar signals) make inside the hull mounting inadvisable. Thru-hull mounting may requir e the use of a fairing block to level the transducer with the waterline. Also, since special tools and knowledge may be requir ed to perform this type of installation it is best to refer to a qualified marine technician. TRAN[...]

USING THE 450TX HOW SONAR WORKS 6 HOW SONAR WORKS Y our Humminbird unit uses sonar to locate and define underwater objects, define the bottom terrain, as well as determine distance. Sonar technology is based on sound waves. Y our Humminbird unit sends out a sound wave signal. With this signal it determines distance by measuring the time between the[...]

7 USING THE 450TX SIMULA TOR OPERA TION Actual depth capability depends on factors such as bottom hardness, water conditions, and transducer installation. Units will typically read to deeper depths in fresh water than in salt water SIMULA TOR OPERA TION The 450TX contains a simulator that allows you to use the unit as if you are on the water . The [...]

FEA TURE MEMORY If your 450TX is installed with a transducer connected, any changes you make to the set-up or User Options (see Control Functions) while in Simulator are r etained in the unit’ s memory . This allows you to use simulator to experiment with the various set-up options, and retain your selected settings for normal operation. If you a[...]

Depth Range. The depth range is shown to the right of the screen. The upper number is 0 indicating the surface of the water . The lower number is one of the nine [...]

Bottom. The graphic depiction of the bottom provides the user with an effective tool for understanding the composition of the bottom. The FSTN type display uses 4 discrete levels of gray to indicate the intensity of the r eturned sonar signal. The 450TX can display even the smallest sonar r eturns with light gray pixels. Larger returns are displaye[...]

Second Returns. When a sonar signal is reflected off the bottom back to the transducer , there is often enough energy left in the signal to be reflected off the surface of the water back to the bottom a second time. Second r eturns appear as a slightly weaker bottom repr esentation exactly twice the depth of the primary bottom return. The second re[...]

12 CONTROL FUNCTIONS The 450TX uses a simple six button keypad for all user input. Press any button and an audible “chirp” confirms the control input. If a button has no function or is inappropriate for the situation, an audible “err or” is heard. The unit sounds multiple chirps. Power . The Power button powers the 450TX up for normal opera[...]
