How Sonar Works Sonar technology is based on sound waves. The 500 Series™ Fishfinder uses sonar to locate and define structure, bottom contour and composition, as well as depth directly below the transducer. Your 500 Series™ Fishfinder sends a sound wave signal and determines distance by measuring the time between the transmission of the sound wave and when the sound wave is reflected off of an object; it then uses the reflected signal to interpret location, size, and composition of an object. S

When all the echoes are viewed side by side, an easy to interpret “graph“ of the bottom, fish, and structure appears. The sound pulses are transmitted at various frequencies depending on the application. Very high frequencies (455 kHz) are used for greatest definition but the operating depth is limited. High frequencies (200 kHz) are commonly used on consumer sonar and provide a good balance between depth performance and resolution. Low frequencies (83 kHz) are typically used to achieve greater

DualBeam Sonar Your 500 Series™ Fishfinder uses a 200/83 kHz DualBeam sonar system with a wide (60°) area of coverage. DualBeam sonar is optimized to show the greatest bottom definition using a narrow (20°) beam yet can still indicate fish found in the wide (60°) beam when the Fish ID+™ feature is turned on. DualBeam is ideal for a wide range of conditions - from shallow to very deep water in both fresh and salt water. Depth capability is affected by such factors as boat speed, wave action, bott

How GPS and Cartography Work Your 500 Series™ Fishfinder also supports GPS and chartplotting. It uses GPS and sonar to determine your position, display it on a grid, and provide detailed underwater information. The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite navigation system designed and maintained by the U.S. Department of Defense. GPS was originally intended for military use; however, civilians may also take advantage of its highly accurate position capabilities, typically within +/- 10 me

The GPS Receiver included with your 500 Series™ Fishfinder allows you to combine easy-to-use FishingGPS® chartplotter and navigation capabilities with advanced fishfinding. The following GPS functionality is currently supported by the 500 Series™ Fishfinder when it is connected to the included GPS receiver: • View current position • View current track (breadcrumb trail) • View precision speed and heading from your GPS receiver • Save tracks, waypoints, and routes • Travel a route and navigate fr

Temperature - water surface temperature. Timer - Elapsed time with Temp/Speed Accessory or GPS Receiver. Distance - Distance traveled with Temp/Speed Accessory or GPS Receiver.

Bait Ball Fish - the Fishfinder displays fish as arches and/or fish icons, and can be set to alarm when a fish of a certain size is detected. When a target is detected, a Fish ID+™ symbol appears on the display with the depth displayed above it. The size of

The display does not show a literal 3- dimensional representation of what is under the water. Each vertical band of data received by the control head and plotted on the display represents something that was detected by a sonar return at a particular time. As both the boat and the targets (fish) may be moving, the returns are only showing a part
