How Sonar Works

Sonar technology is based on sound waves. The 700 Series™ Fishing System uses sonar to locate and define structure, bottom contour and composition, as well as depth directly below the transducer.

Your 700 Series™ Fishing System 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.

Sonar is very fast. A sound wave can travel from the surface to a depth of 240 ft (70 m) and back again in less than 1/4 of a second. It is unlikely that your boat can “outrun“ this sonar signal.

SONAR is an acronym for SOund and NAvigation Ranging. Sonar utilizes precision sound pulses or “pings“ which are emitted into the water in a teardrop-shaped beam.

The sound pulses “echo“ back from objects in the water such as the bottom, fish, and other submerged objects. The returned echoes are displayed on the LCD screen. Each time a new echo is received, the old echoes are moved across the LCD, creating a scrolling effect.

How Sonar Works

Page 15

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 depth capability.

The power output is the amount of energy generated by the sonar transmitter. It is commonly measured using two methods:

• Root Mean Square (RMS) measures power output over the entire transmit cycle.

• Peak to Peak measures power output at the highest points.

The benefits of increased power output are the ability to detect smaller targets at greater distances, ability to overcome noise, better high speed performance, and enhanced depth capability.

How Sonar Works

Page 16

Side Imaging® Sonar

Your 700 Series™ Fishing System uses Side Imaging® sonar to provide a wide yet precise survey of a large area of water, including detailed bottom topography and fishattracting structure orientation. The Side Imaging® transducer returns are processed into an image similar to an aerial photograph. Typically, the Side Imaging® sonar searches an area that is 240 feet wide to each side, 480 feet total side coverage, with a depth limitation of 150 feet. See

What’s on the Side Imaging® Display

for more information.

Depth capability is affected by such factors as boat speed, wave action, bottom hardness, water conditions, and transducer installation.

How Sonar Works

Page 17

DualBeam PLUS™ Sonar

Your 700 Series™ Fishing System uses a 200/83 kHz DualBeam PLUS™ sonar system with a wide (60°) area of coverage. DualBeam PLUS™ sonar has a narrowly focused 20° center beam, surrounded by a second beam of 60°, expanding your coverage to an area equal to your depth. In 20 feet of water, the wider beam covers an area 20 feet wide.

DualBeam PLUS™ sonar returns can be blended together, viewed separately, or compared sideby-side. DualBeam PLUS™ 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, bottom hardness, water conditions and transducer installation.

Page 18

Ice transducer

Dual Beam Ice Transducer

(optional-purchase XI 9 20 Ice Transducer only)

Your Fishing System supports the optionalpurchase XI 9 20 Ice Transducer which provides selectable dual-frequency sonar with a wide area of coverage. Selectable dual-frequency gives you the option of two beams, and both beams will cover the bottom and provide high definition. The 20° center beam provides the highest definition, while the 60° beam provides wider coverage. Depth capability is affected by such factors as bottom hardness and water conditions. Whether fishing in shallow or very deep water, selectable dual-frequency is ideal for a variety of conditions.

(with optional-purchase QuadraBeam PLUS™ transducer)

Your Fishing System also supports QuadraBeam PLUS™ sonar with the purchase of an additional QuadraBeam PLUS™ transducer. QuadraBeam PLUS™ sonar provides an extremely wide 90° area of coverage. QuadraBeam PLUS™ starts with two fan-shaped 35° 455 kHz Side Structure locating sonar beams to spot fish, bait, and structure to the left and right of the boat over an area of the bottom that’s always equal to twice your depth. For a detailed view below the boat, QuadraBeam PLUS™ uses DualBeam PLUS™ technology, with precision 20° and wide 60° beams. QuadraBeam PLUS™ finds more fish faster and can even tell you where to put your bait by showing if fish are to the left, right, or directly beneath your boat.

Universal Sonar 2

(compatible w/ optional-purchase Minnkota trolling motors)

Your 700 Series™ Fishing System supports Universal Sonar 2, a state-of-theart, integrated and protected transducer that is built into the lower unit of Minnkota trolling motors. With Universal Sonar 2, all wiring is concealed inside the indestructible composite shaft—out of sight and out of harm’s way, with no clamps, ties, or exposed wires. Universal Sonar 2 features new temperature sensing and the performance of DualBeam PLUS™ technology (available with all Humminbird® DualBeam PLUS™ models). An expanded view and greater bottom detail gives you a totally new perspective of the water below, along with optimal sonar performance to help you find fish.

How Sonar Works

Page 21

How GPS Works

Your 700 Series™ Fishing System also supports GPS (Global Positioning System) and chartplotting. It uses GPS and sonar to determine your position, display it on a grid, and provide detailed underwater information.

GPS uses a constellation of satellites that continually send radio signals to the earth. The GPS receiver on your boat receives signals from satellites that are visible to it. Based on time differences between each received signal, the GPS receiver determines its distance to each satellite. With distances known, the GPS receiver mathematically triangulates its own position. With once per second updates, the GPS receiver then calculates its velocity and bearing.

GPS was originally intended for military use; however, civilians may also take advantage of its highly accurate position capabilities, typically within +/- 4.5 meters, depending on conditions. This means that 95% of the time, the GPS receiver will read a location within 4.5 meters of your actual position. Your GPS Receiver also uses information from WAAS (the Wide Area Augmentation System), EGNOS (the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service), and MSAS (the MTSAT Satellite Augmentation System) satellites if they are available in your area.

The following GPS functionality is currently supported by the 700 Series™ Fishing System 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 from one waypoint to the next

See Chart View and Add Maps to Your Fishing System for more information.

What’s on the Sonar Display

The 700 Series™ Fishing System can display a variety of useful information about

Depth - Water depth can be set to alarm when the water becomes too shallow.

Temperature - Water surface temperature.

Timer - Elapsed time with Temp/Speed

Accessory or GPS Receiver.

Distance - Distance traveled with Temp/Speed Accessory or GPS Receiver.

Average Speed - Average speed reading with Temp/Speed Accessory or GPS Receiver.

Speed - if a Temp/Speed accessory or GPS Receiver is attached, the Fishing System can display the speed of the boat and can keep a Triplog of nautical or statute miles traveled.

Second Sonar Return - When the sonar signal bounces between the bottom and the surface of the water and back again. Use the appearance of the second return to determine bottom hardness. Hard bottoms will show a strong second return, while soft bottoms will show a very weak one or none at all.

Cursor Dialog Box - Indicates cursor depth on the display and the depth of the bottom directly below the cursor. The Latitude and Longitude of the cursor position, the distance to travel to the cursor position, and the bearing to the cursor position is shown with a GPS receiver. A waypoint can be marked at the cursor position for later retrieval and use with a GPS receiver.

NOTE: Entries in this view that list (with Temp/Speed or GPS Receiver) are available if either device information from the GPS receiver will be displayed on the view.

Understanding the Sonar Display

It is important to understand the significance of the display. The display does not show a literal 3dimensional 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 particular segment of time when objects were detected, not exactly where those objects are in relation to other objects shown on the display.

The returned sonar echoes are displayed on the screen. As a new echo is received, the historical data scrolls across the screen.

Real Time Sonar (RTS™) Window

A Real Time Sonar (RTS™) Window appears on the right side of the display in the Sonar View only. The RTS Window™ updates at the fastest rate possible for depth conditions and shows only the returns from the bottom, structure, and fish that are within the transducer beam. The RTS Window™ plots the depth and intensity of a sonar return (see Sonar Menu Tab: RTS Window™).

The Narrow RTS Window™ indicates the sonar intensity through the use of colors. Red indicates a strong return and blue indicates a weak return. The depth of the sonar return is indicated by the vertical placement of the return on the display depth scale.

What’s on the Sonar Display

The Wide RTS Window™ indicates the sonar intensity through the use of a bar graph. The length of the plotted return indicates whether the return is weak or strong. The depth of the sonar return is indicated by the vertical placement of the return on the display depth scale. The Wide RTS Window™ does not use grayscale.

SwitchFire™

SwitchFire™ controls how the sonar returns are displayed in the Sonar Views. SwitchFire™ settings are available in the Sonar Menu Tab.

To see the maximum sonar information available within the transducer beam so more fish arches and better jig tracking are shown, choose Max Mode.

To see less clutter and more fish size accuracy interpreted from the transducer beam, choose Clear Mode. See Sonar Menu Tab: SwitchFire™ for more information.

Freeze Frame and Active Cursor

Freeze Frame and Active Cursor - Press any arrow on the 4-WAY Cursor Control key, and the screen will freeze and a cursor will be displayed. Use the 4-WAY Cursor Control key to move the cursor over a sonar return, and the depth of the sonar return will be displayed at the bottom of the screen in the cursor dialog box.

The RTS Window™ continues to update in Freeze Frame. To return to a scrolling display and exit Freeze Frame, press the EXIT key. Freeze Frame is available in the Sonar, Split Sonar, and Sonar Zoom Views.

Bottom Presentation

As the boat moves, the unit charts the changes in depth on the display to create a profile of the Bottom Contour. The type of bottom can be determined from the return charted on the display. A Hard Bottom such as compacted sediment or flat rock appears as a thinner line across the display. A Soft Bottom such as mud or sand appears as a thicker line across the display. Rocky Bottoms have a broken, random appearance.

Side Imaging® Range - Images shown on the right side of the screen are located on the right side of your boat, and images shown on the left side of the screen are located on the left side of your boat. In this picture, the sonar is pinging 150 feet on each side.

The water column shows the relative depth of the water under the boat at a given time. Variations in the width of the water column show variations in the distance to the bottom as the boat passes over.

Shadows result from a lack of reflected sonar from a particular area, and can be more valuable for interpretation than the sonar reflected by the object itself. Use shadows to help you see the image in 3 dimensions, oriented in space. You can gain insight into the actual shape of an object, or the depth to which it has sunk into the bottom, through shadows on the display. Objects standing on the bottom cast a sonar shadow. The longer the shadow, the taller the object. Fish also cast shadows. You can use the shadow to interpret how close the fish is to the bottom.

It is important to understand how Side Imaging® technology produces the display. The images you see on the display are produced using sonar technology. The special transducer projects three distinct beams – one beam facing down and two beams pointing out to the side.

Down Beam is aimed directly below the boat and provides conical coverage.

Side Beams are aimed at right angles to the path of the boat. The side beam coverage is very thin from front to back, yet very wide top to bottom. The narrow aspect (front to back) of the beam illuminates a small strip of the bottom perpendicular to the direction of the boat.

Side Imaging® Representation

Each time the unit pings, a strip of data representing all the echoes received by the transducer are put together on the display to form the image that you see.

The rows closest to the boat icon at the top of the view are the most recent sonar data. The information is scrolled down the screen as new data, drawn at the top of the screen, becomes available.

The main benefit of Side Imaging® sonar to anglers is that it provides an overall survey of a large area of water. This gives you a better understanding of the bottom topography and how structure is oriented for more efficient fishing.

Saltwater anglers pick up precise details of popular fishing structure like wrecks, reefs, humps and drop-offs, as well as being able to spot bait balls in open water. Freshwater anglers can see fish-attracting structure such as timber, stumps, rocks, and creek beds.

Side Imaging® Frequencies and Coverage

Side Imaging® sonar uses two very precise sonar beams that are directed to either side of the boat. The beams “illuminate” the bottom contour, structure, and fish, and the results are displayed in a “picture-like” image on the screen.

• Frequencies: The side beams operate at a frequency of 455 kHz. Your Side Imaging® transducer also provides DualBeam PLUS™ sonar coverage at 200/83 kHz.

• Side Imaging® Beams are extremely narrow from front to back, and provide “thin slices” of the bottom for high resolution imaging.

• Side Imaging® Range: 240 feet to each side, with a total side coverage of 480 feet, with a depth limitation of 150 feet, depending on the contour of the bottom and when the side beam frequency selection is set to 455 kHz. The total coverage under the boat is 180 degrees.

455 kHz provides maximum coverage with 180° total beam width

For Best Performance

Use the following tips and examples to help you interpret the Side Imaging® display.

For Best Side Imaging® Performance

• Boat speed: 2 to 6 mph

• Straight line navigation

• Minimum turning time and wave turbulence

See Side Imaging Tips for more information.

Boat speed: Side Imaging® is best performed at boat speeds between 2 to 6 mph. If the boat is stationary, the same information is displayed over and over. If the boat is moving very quickly, there will be gaps between the strips of information. The best boat speed to use will depend on the side range selected. Slower speeds are good for longer ranges, while faster speeds can be used at shorter ranges.

Boat navigation: It is important to understand that when the boat turns, successive beam strips to one side will begin to overlap and the strips on the other side will fan out, providing some distortion to the image.

Because of this, the best imaging performance is produced by straight line navigation and minimal side-to-side boat motion (i.e. wave induced, etc.). This applies to navigation by either the main engine or the trolling motor. Minimize turning time and avoid wave action that induces large side-to-side rocking of the boat. For example, if there is a lot of wave activity, try to move the boat so that it is perpendicular to the waves instead of parallel with the waves in order to minimize the side-to-side rocking of the boat.

What’s on the Side Imaging® Display

Page 34

Beam Coverage: When there is an area directly under the boat that does not have SI beam coverage, this area will be covered by the standard 200/83 kHz down-looking beam and displayed in the Sonar views. The net effect of this, on the display, is that a single object may appear as two separate entities, when in reality, it is one continuous object. See Submerged Bridge: A Closer Perspective and the Submerged Bridge: Alternative Perspective illustrations for examples of this.

See www.humminbird.com and www.sideimaging.com for a Side Imaging® sonar tutorial and additional information.

What’s on the Down Imaging™ Display

Down Imaging™ uses unique sonar technology to provide information about produce the detailed sonar data that you see on the display. Down Imaging™ and bottom contour, including the following items:

Depth - Water depth can be set to alarm when the water becomes too shallow.

Temperature - Water surface temperature.

Bottom Return- Use the appearance of the bottom

return to determine bottom hardness. Rock and gravel provide a clearer sonar return than mud and sand because hard objects reflect sonar better than soft objects.

Topography Changes - The light part of the display shows where the beam is hitting hard bottom or rising terrain. The dark part of the display indicates soft bottom (sand, mud) or descending terrain.

Speed - If a GPS Receiver or Temp/Speed accessory is connected, the Fishing System can display the speed of the boat and can keep a Triplog of nautical or statute miles traveled.

NOTE: Entries in this view that list (with Temp/Speed or GPS Receiver) are available if either only the information from the GPS receiver will be displayed on the view.

You can gain insight into the actual shape of an object, or the depth to which it has sunk into the bottom, through shadows on the display. Objects standing on the bottom cast a sonar shadow.

Understanding the Down Imaging™ Display

The images you see on the Down Imaging™ display are produced using sonar technology. Each time the unit pings, a strip of data representing all the echoes received by the transducer are put together on the display to form the image that you see. Like traditional 2D Sonar, the sonar history scrolls left across the screen.

Interpreting the Display

Down Imaging™ beams “illuminate” the bottom contour, structure, and fish. The beams are wide (side to side) but very thin front to back.

Use the light and dark parts of the display to interpret the objects under your boat as follows:

• Dark shades represent soft returns (mud, sand) or descending terrain.

• Light shades represent denser terrain (timber, rocks) or rising terrain. A very hard bottom may appear as white on the display.

• White Streaks or Clouds may represent fish on the display.

• Shadows are not caused by light but by the lack of a sonar return. Objects standing on the bottom cause a sonar shadow to appear on the display. The longer the shadow, the taller the object. Fish may also cast shadows. You can use the shadow to interpret where the fish or object is located in relation to the bottom.

What’s on the Down Imaging™ Display

Down Imaging™ Sensitivity

Use Down Sensitivity to control how the sonar returns appear on the display. Increase the sensitivity to reveal weaker returns that may be of interest, especially in very clear water or greater depths. Decrease the sensitivity to eliminate the clutter from the display that is sometimes present in murky or muddy water. See the Down Imaging™ X-Press™ Menu for more information.

Introduction to Navigation

Use your 700 Series™ Fishing System to mark waypoints at areas of interest and to navigate to those waypoints via a savable route. A route represents the shortest intended distance between waypoints. You can also view and save tracks, which represent the actual path of the boat.

Waypoints, Routes, and Tracks

Waypoints are stored positions that allow you to mark areas of interest or navigation points. Your Fishing System can store up to 3000 waypoints.

Routes link two or more waypoints together to create a path for navigation and are used in trip planning. You can link individual waypoints together by using the GOTO key. A route represents your intended navigation and shows the shortest path from each waypoint to the next. As you travel a route, staying on the route line is the most efficient way to get to your destination, although you should always look out for obstacles not shown on the chart. Your 700 Series™ Fishing System can store up to 50 routes that can each contain up to 50 waypoints.

Tracks consist of detailed position history and are displayed as a breadcrumb trail of trackpoints. The Current Track shows the position history since the unit was powered up (maximum of 20,000 trackpoints displayed). You can clear the Current Track or save it at any time. Your 700 Series™ Fishing System can store up to 50 saved tracks, each containing 20,000 trackpoints. The current track represents your actual path so far.

SD Memory Card Slots

The SD memory card slots on your control head can be used with SD memory cards (optionalpurchase required) to add detailed charts to your Fishing System, update software, or export navigation data from your Fishing System.

Inserting an MMC/SD

into the Card Slot

NOTE: The SD Memory Cards require a separate purchase. For more information, visit our Web site at humminbird.com or contact our Customer Resource Center at 1-800-633-1468.

To insert an MMC/SD card:

1. Remove the MMC/SD slot cover.

2. Position the MMC/SD card so that the label faces the right side of the unit, and insert the card into the slot. Press down on the card until it clicks into place.
