GETTING STARTED > UNDERSTANDING THE FISHFINDER AND SONAR
Understanding the Fishfinder and Sonar
The Fishfinder 340C is a fully automatic, color sonar unit that
allows you to go out on the water and find fish without having to
configure a lot of settings; or, if from experience you know exactly
how you want your Fishfinder screen to look and function, you can
customize each setting to your specific needs and wants.
If you have used a Fishfinder before, you might already know how
to interpret the sonar information on the screen, so you can skip
this section. If you have not used a Fishfinder before, you might
want to learn a bit about sonar: what it is, how it works, and what
you might see on the Fishfinder 340C screen. This manual does not
go into technical detail about sonar, but it can give you a general
understanding of those things that you need to know about sonar
that can help you interpret the screen and find the fish.
Understanding Sonar
During installation, you connect your Fishfinder 340C to a
transducer. The transducer uses sound to determine information
about what is in the water beneath your boat. Then the transducer
sends the information to your Fishfinder to be displayed on the
screen for you to view and interpret. How does the transducer do
this?
The transducer sends sound waves down into the water in a cone
shape, similar to a flashlight beam (covering a smaller circular area
at the top and angling out to a larger circular area at the bottom).
These sound waves reflect off of any object that they hit, and then
the waves travel back up to the transducer. These objects could be
fish, branches, the bottom, or any other object that has density that
is different from the water. The transducer receives the sound wave
information, and then sends the information to the Fishfinder. The
Fishfinder displays the information on the screen for you to see
and interpret. The type of transducer and settings that you choose
determine how the information is displayed on the screen.
Using Dual Frequency
Dual frequency works best for deep water (for example, off-shore)
applications. The 200 kHz frequency allows you access to great
detail about what is underneath your boat. The 50 kHz frequency
provides less detailed information, but penetrates to greater depths
with the same power. You can choose either or both frequencies to
get the information that you want. If you choose dual frequency,
the transducer alternates between the 50 kHz and 200 kHz signals.
This capability allows you to see the best picture available at any
depth.
2 Fishfinder 340C Owner’s Manual
GETTING STARTED > UNDERSTANDING THE FISHFINDER AND SONAR
Using Dual Beam
Dual beam works best for shallow water (for example, inland)
applications. A dual beam transducer can transmit a narrow or a
wide beam. The water area covered by the transmitted sound waves
The wide beam is more helpful in shallow water, because it gives
you a much wider view of objects in the water, including areas
beyond the sides of your boat. At a 30-foot depth, the wide beam
covers the area of approximately a 20-foot circle.
is determined by the beam width of the transducer and the water
depth. The narrow beam provides crisp detail of what is under your
boat, and is very helpful if you are fishing in deeper water where
the beam covers more area (for example, at a 30-foot depth, the
narrow beam covers the area of about a 7-foot circle).
Understanding the Fishfinder Screen
Experimentation and experience are the keys to successfully
interpreting your Fishfinder screen. We recommend that you take
your Fishfinder out on familiar water, and spend time learning to
interpret what you see on the Fishfinder 340C screen.
Think of the Fishfinder screen as if you took a picture from the
side of an aquarium in your home. You can see how deep a fish is
in the water (how close it is to the top or bottom), but you cannot
tell where the fish is located horizontally in the water (whether it is
near the front or the back of the aquarium). Remember this when
you are trying to locate exactly where something is in the water.

Along the top of the screen, you might see a grouping of intense
colors. This area is
or any other sonar interference at the surface of the water. Too
much surface clutter can obscure your view of fish. You can turn
down the Gain setting to reduce this surface clutter.
The strongest sonar returns appear on your screen as the most
intense solid color (depending on your selected color scheme; red
is the default). The weakest returns appear as the less intense, less
solid colors (blue is the default).
Between the bottom and the surface clutter, you see fish in the
previous illustration. Here, the fish appear as arches. Actual fish
returns might not always appear as perfect arches, due to the speed,
fish orientation, or other conditions. You can turn on the Fish
Symbols setting if you want to see on-screen fish in a fish shape.
The bottom of the water is always going to be the strongest
signal, and therefore the most intense color. The bottom is the
continuous, intensely-colored line running across the bottom of
the screen. The Fishfinder 340C includes the latest technology in

Mounting the Transducer on a Transom
When selecting a transom mount location, consider the following
for optimal performance:
• For your sonar to operate properly, the transducer must be
located in calm water. DO NOT mount the transducer behind
strakes, rivet lines, struts, fittings, water intake, discharge
ports, eroding paint, or anything that creates turbulence.
• Mount the transducer as close to the center of the boat as
possible.
• DO NOT cut the transducer lead. (This voids your warranty.)
• DO NOT mount the transducer in locations where it might
be jarred when launching, hauling, trailering, or storing.
• DO NOT mount the transducer in the path of the prop on
single-drive boats. The transducer can cause cavitation that
can degrade the boat’s performance and damage the prop. On
twin-drive boats, mount the transducer between the drives, if
possible.
INSTALLING THE FISHFINDER 340C > MOUNTING THE TRANSDUCER
NOTE: DO NOT mount the transducer behind strakes, struts,
fittings, water intake or discharge ports, or anything that creates
air bubbles or causes the water to become turbulent. The
transducer must be in clean (non-turbulent) water for optimal
performance.
