Bottom lock

The bottom lock mode is useful when you want to view echoes close to the bottom. In this mode the left side of the panel shows an image where the bottom is flattened. The range scale is changed to measure from the seabed (0) and upwards. The bottom and the zero line are always shown on the left image, independent of the range scale. The scaling factor for the image on the left side of the panel is adjusted as described for the Zoom option.

Frequency

The frequency split screen option is only available if multiple frequencies are available. The frequency mode is useful when you want to view higher and lower frequencies at the

same time.

• A low frequency, for example 50 kHz, will go deep. It generates a wide cone but is

somewhat more sensitive to noise. It is good for bottom discrimination and wide area search.

• A high frequency, for example 200 kHz, offers higher discrimination and is less sensitive to

noise. It is good for separating targets and for higher speed vessels.

On a frequency split screen image, press the rotary knob to toggle between the left-side and right-side images. The active image has an orange frame around it. Press the frequency Softkey and turn the rotary knob to adjust the frequency on the split screen image that is active. You can use most softkey options to change the range, gain, color, etc. to the split screen image that is active.

Orientation

Orientation is only available if the Frequency split screen option is used. You can specify to show the split screens on top of each other or side-by-side.

No split

To revert to a single image select No split in the Split sub-menu.

Palettes

You can select between several display palettes optimized for a variety of fishing conditions.

View options | S2009-2016 Fish Finder User Manual

White marker

Use this option to change a specific color on the image to white. This effectively highlights (or hides) the selected color.

Temperature graph

The temperature graph is used to illustrate changes in water temperature. When toggled on, a colored line and temperature digits are shown on the Echosounder

Toggle enable/disable the Bottom line from the bottom line sub-menu. Turning the rotary knob or pressing the up/down arrow keys moves the slide bar up/down and specifies the thickness of the bottom line.

A-Scope

The A-scope is a display of real-time echoes as they appear on the panel. The strength of the actual echo is indicated by both width and color intensity.

Zoom bars

The zoom bars are displayed when you activate a split zoom image and activate the zoom bar on the View menu. Refer to "Zoom" on page 17.

The range zoom bars on the right side of the display shows the range that is magnified and displayed on the left side. If you increase the zooming factor, the range is reduced. You see this as reduced distance between the zoom bars.

You can move the zoom bars on the right side up or down to cause the left side image to show different depths of the water column.

• You activate the cursor and display the cursor icon by pressing the left or right arrow keys

• You deactivate the cursor and remove the cursor icon from the image by pressing the

Installation

Mounting location

Choose the mounting locations carefully before you drill or cut. The unit should be mounted so that the operator can easily use the controls and clearly see the screen.

Do not mount the S2016 in an outside location exposed to direct sunlight, it is intended for pilothouse installation only. The S2009 may be mounted both inside, or outside in direct sunlight due to its high brightness screen.

Ensure that any holes cut are in a safe position and will not weaken the boat’s structure. If in doubt, consult a qualified boat builder, or marine electronics installer.

Before cutting a hole in a panel, make sure that there are no hidden electrical wires or other parts behind the panel.

Check that it is possible to route cables to the intended mounting location. Leave sufficient clearance to connect all relevant cables. Do not mount any part where it can be used as a hand hold, where it might be submerged,

or where it will interfere with the operation, launching, or retrieving of the boat. For overall width and height requirements, refer to "Dimensional drawings" on page 50. Good ventilation is required. Choose a location that will not expose the unit to conditions

that exceed the specifications - refer to "Technical specifications" on page 48.

Warning: When installing, ensure appropriate safety equipment is used.

For example, ear muffs, protective glasses, gloves and a dust mask. Power tools may exceed safe noise levels, and can cast off dangerous projectiles. The dust from many materials commonly used in boat construction may cause irritation or damage to eyes, skin, and lungs.

U-bracket mounting

1. Place the bracket in the desired mounting location. Ensure that the chosen location has

enough height to accommodate the unit fitted in the bracket, and allows tilting of the unit. Also adequate space is required on both sides to allow tightening and loosening of the knobs.

2. Mark the screw locations using the bracket as a template, and drill pilot holes. Use

fasteners suited to the mounting surface material. If the material is too thin for selftappers, reinforce it, or mount the bracket with machine screws and large washers. Use only 304 or 316 stainless steel fasteners.

3. Screw down the bracket.

4. (16" units only) Using the screws provided in the gimbal kit, fasten the gimbals to the unit.

5. Mount the unit to the bracket using the knobs. Hand tighten only. The ratchet teeth in the

bracket and unit case ensure a positive grip and prevent the unit from changing from the desired angle.

Wiring

Guidelines

Don't:

• make sharp bends in the cables

• run cables in a way that allows water to flow down into the connectors

• run the data cables adjacent to radar, transmitter, or large/high current carrying cables or

high frequency signal cables.

• run cables so they interfere with mechanical systems

Do this:

• make drip and service loops

• use cable-tie on all cables to keep them secure

• solder/crimp and insulate all wiring connections if extending or shortening the cables.

Extending cables should be done with suitable crimp connectors or solder and heat shrink. Keep joins as high as possible to minimize possibility of water immersion.

• leave room adjacent to connectors to ease plugging and unplugging of cables

Warning: Before starting the installation, be sure to turn electrical power

off. If power is left on or turned on during the installation, fire, electrical shock, or other serious injury may occur. Be sure that the voltage of the power supply is compatible with the unit.

Warning: The positive supply wire (red) should always be connected to

(+) DC with the supplied fuse or a circuit breaker (closest available to fuse rating).

Planning and installing a network backbone

The backbone needs to run between the locations of all products to be installed - typically in a bow to stern layout - and be no further than 6 m from a device to be connected.

Choose from the following components to make up the backbone:

• Micro-C cables: 0.6 m (2 ft), 1.8 m (6 ft), 4.5 m (15 ft), and 7.6 m (25 ft) cables.

• T-connector or 4-way connector. Used to connect a drop cable to the backbone.

• Micro-C power cable. Connect to the backbone at a position that is central to the network

load using a T-connector or 4-way connector.

Note: When using a wind sensor, the mast cable should be connected at one end of the

backbone, as the sensor is fitted with a termination resistor.

Note: Most NMEA 2000 devices can be connected directly to a SimNet backbone and

SimNet devices can be connected to a NMEA 2000 network by using adapter cables.

Power the network

The network requires its own 12 V DC power supply protected by a 3 amp fuse or breaker. Connect power at any location in the backbone for smaller systems. For larger systems introduce power at central point in the backbone to “balance” the voltage

drop of the network.

Note: If joining to an existing NMEA 2000 network that already has its own power

supply, do not make another power connection elsewhere in the network, and ensure the existing network is not powered by 24 V DC.

Note: Do not connect the NMEA 2000 power cable to the same terminals as the engine

start batteries, autopilot computer, bow thruster or other high current devices.

The following drawing demonstrates a typical small network. The backbone is made up of directly interconnected T-connectors.

Talkers and Listeners

Do not connect multiple devices outputting data (Talkers) on to any serial input (RX) of the unit. The RS422 protocol is not intended for this type of connection, and data will be corrupted if more than one device transmits simultaneously. The output (TX) however may drive multiple receivers (Listeners). The number of receivers is finite, and depends on the receiving hardware. Typically three devices is possible.

Connect an external monitor

The S2016 incorporates HDMI technology and has a HDMI output which can be connected to an external monitor to replicate video at a remote location. Video is at a resolution of 1366 x 768, a connected monitor should support same resolution or be able to scale.

Network Echosounder

You can share the Echosounder images from this unit with other units connected on the Ethernet network.

Heave compensation

Compensates for the wavy appearance of items in the Echosounder image as the vessel heaves with waves.

Note: This option is only available if a compatible heading sensor with heave

compensation output is available.

Search depth

Noise may cause the Echosounder to search for unrealistic depths. By setting the search depth manually the system displays echoes received from objects

within the set depth range.

Software Setup | S2009-2016 Fish Finder User Manual

Installation

Use the installation option in the Echo settings dialog to setup the echosounder.

Keel offset

All transducers measure water depth from the transducer to the bottom. As a result, water depth readings do not account for the distance from the transducer to the lowest point of the boat (for example; bottom of the keel, rudder, or propeller) in the water or from the transducer to the water surface.

Set the keel offset to the distance from the bottom of the transducer to the lowest point of the boat in the water. If, for example, the distance is 0.3 m (1 ft), it will be input as (minus) -

0.3 m (-1 ft).

Water speed calibration

Water speed calibration is used to adjust the speed value from the paddle wheel to match the actual boat speed through the water. Actual speed can be determined from GPS speed over ground (SOG) or by timing the boat over a known distance. Water speed calibration should be performed in calm conditions, with minimal wind and current movement.

Increase this value above 100 % if the paddle wheel is under reading, and decrease this value if it is over reading. For example, if the average water speed reads 8.5 knots (9.8 MPH) and SOG records 10 knots (11.5 MPH) the calibration value needs to be increased to 117 %. To calculate the adjustment, divide the SOG by the paddlewheel speed, and multiply the product by 100.

Calibration range: 50-200 %. Default is 100 %.

Water speed averaging

Averages water speed by measuring your speed at a selected interval of time. Water speed intervals range from one to thirty seconds. For example if you select five seconds, your displayed water speed will be based on averaging over 5 seconds of sampling.

Calibration range: 1-30 seconds. Default is 1 second.

Water temperature calibration

Temperature calibration is used to adjust the water temperature value from the sonar transducer to match the data from another temperature sensor. It may be required to correct for localized influences to the measured temperature.

Calibration range: -9.9° - +9.9°. Default is 0°.

Note: Water temperature calibration only appears if the transducer is temperature

capable. Check transducer type selection if this option should be available.

Software Setup | S2009-2016 Fish Finder User Manual

Transducer type

Transducer type is used for selecting the transducer model connected to the sonar module. The transducer selected will determine what frequencies the user can select during sonar operation. In some transducers with built-in temperature sensors, the temperature reading may be inaccurate or not available at all if the wrong transducer is selected. Transducer temperature sensors are one of two impedances - 5k or 10k. Where both options are given for the same model transducer, refer to paperwork supplied with transducer to determine impedance.

Alerts settings

You can access the Alerts settings dialog from the Alerts option in the Main menu and from the Settings option in the Main menu.

Use the Alerts settings dialog to turn on/off alerts and set conditional values. You can also enable the internal siren.

For more information about the alert message pop-up, and active and historical alert messages, refer to "Alerts" on page 19.

Units settings

Use the units settings dialog to specify the units of measure displayed.

Network settings

The unit has Ethernet, NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 port connections on the back allowing you to connect the unit to your network. Use the Network settings dialog to setup networks and connect to network devices.

Info

Displays the Ethernet connection status, the unit's IP and MAC addresses.

Device name

Assigning a name is useful in systems using more than one device of the same type and size. When viewing data sources or the device list, the assigned name will append the default product name + virtual device function for easy identification.

Data source selection

Note: If NMEA 0183 is used, complete the NMEA 0183 setup prior to doing source

selection. Refer to "NMEA 0183 setup" on page 44.

Data sources provide live data to the system. The data may originate from modules internal to the unit (for example internal GPS or sonar),

or external modules connected to the NMEA 2000 or via NMEA 0183 if available on the unit. When a device is connected to more than one source providing the same data, the user can

choose the preferred source. Before commencing with source selection make sure all external devices and the NMEA 2000 backbone are connected and are turned on.

Auto select data sources

The Auto select option looks for all sources connected to the unit. If more than one source is available for each data type, selection is made from an internal priority list. This option is suitable for the majority of installations.

Note: Auto data source selection may already have been selected at first time startup.

However, it should be redone if any new devices have been added to the network since.

Advanced data source selection

The advanced option allows for you to manually select or unselect data sources. Manual selection is generally only required where there is more than one source for the same data, and the ‘Auto select’ selected source is not the one desired.

Device list

The Device list shows the devices that provide data. This may include a module inside the unit, or any external NMEA 2000 device.

Software Setup | S2009-2016 Fish Finder User Manual

Selecting a device in this list will bring up additional details and actions:

All devices allow allocation of an instance number in the configure option. Set unique instance numbers on any identical devices on the network to allow for the unit to distinguish between them. The data option shows all data being output by the device. Some devices will show additional options specific to the device.

Note: Setting the instance number on a 3rd party product is typically not possible.

Diagnostics

The NMEA 2000 tab on the diagnostics page can provide information useful for identifying an issue with the network.

Note: The following information may not always indicate an issue that can be simply

resolved with minor adjustment to network layout or connected devices and their activity on the network. However, Rx and Tx errors are most likely indicating issues with the physical network, which may be resolved by correcting termination, reducing backbone or drop lengths, or reducing the number of network nodes (devices).

Software Setup | S2009-2016 Fish Finder User Manual

Bus state

Simply indicates whether the bus is powered, but not necessarily connected to any data sources. However, if bus shows as ‘off’, but power is present along with an increasing error count, it is possible that termination or cable topology is incorrect.

Rx Overflows

The unit received too many messages for its buffer before the application could read them.

Rx Overruns

The unit contained too many messages for its buffer before the driver could read them.

Rx/Tx Errors

These two numbers increase when there are error messages, and decrease when messages are received successfully. These (unlike the other values) are not a cumulative count. Under normal operation these should be at 0. Values around 96 upwards indicate a heavily error prone network. If these numbers go too high for a given device, it will automatically drop off the bus.

Rx/Tx Messages

Shows actual traffic in and out of device.

Bus Load

A high value here indicates network is near full capacity. Some devices automatically adjust rate of transmission, if network traffic is heavy.

Fast Packet Errors

Cumulative counter of any fast packet error. This could be a missed frame, or a frame out of sequence etc. NMEA 2000 PGNs are made of up to 32 frames. The entire message will be discarded when a frame is missed.

Note: Rx and Tx Errors often indicate an issue with the physical network, which may be

resolved by correcting termination, reducing backbone or drop lengths, or reducing the number of network nodes (devices).

Reset counters

Resets all counters in the NMEA 2000 tab of the Diagnostics dialog to zero. The counters start recounting immediately.

SimNet Groups

The SimNet Group function is used to control parameter settings, either globally or in groups of units. The function is used on larger vessels where several SimNet units are connected to the network. By assigning several units to the same group, a parameter update on one unit will have the same effect on the rest of the group members.

Software Setup | S2009-2016 Fish Finder User Manual

Damping

If data appears erratic or too sensitive, damping may be applied to make the information appear more stable. With damping set at MIN, the data is presented in raw form with no damping applied. This is available for heading, course over ground, speed over ground, apparent wind, true wind, boat speed, depth, and tide sourced from NMEA 2000.

Calibration

An offset (positive or negative) can be applied to correct inaccuracies in boat speed, sea temp, air temp, barometric pressure, and depth sourced from NMEA 2000 devices.

NMEA 2000

Use the NMEA 2000 network settings option to receive and send waypoints from or to NMEA 2000 devices.

NMEA 0183 setup

The NMEA 0183 port must be set to suit the speed of connected devices, and can be configured to output only the sentences required by listening devices.

Receive waypoint

Select this option to allow a device capable of creating and exporting waypoints via NMEA 0183 to transfer directly to this unit.

Serial ports

Specify the baud rate for port for the devices connected to the NMEA 0183. The baud rate should be set to correspond with devices connected to the NMEA 0183 input and output. The input and output (Tx, Rx) use the same baud rate setting.

Software Setup | S2009-2016 Fish Finder User Manual

Serial Output

Selection determines whether the data is output via Tx lines, and will enable editing of the output sentences list.

Serial Output Sentences

This list allows control over which sentences need to be transmitted to other devices from the NMEA 0183 port. Due to the limited bandwidth of NMEA 0183 it is desirable to only enable the data that is required. The less sentences that are selected, the higher the output rate of the enabled sentences.

Commonly used sentences are enabled by default.

Software Setup | S2009-2016 Fish Finder User Manual

Maintenance

Preventive maintenance

The unit does not contain any field serviceable components. Therefore, the operator is required to perform only a very limited amount of preventative maintenance.

It is recommended that you always fit the supplied protective cover when the unit is not in use.

Cleaning the display unit

A proper cleaning cloth should be used to clean the screen, where possible. Use plenty of water to dissolve and take away salt remains. Crystalized salt may scratch the coating if using a damp cloth. Apply minimal pressure to the screen.

Where marks on the screen cannot be removed by the cloth alone, use a 50/50 mixture of warm water and isopropyl alcohol to clean the screen. Avoid any contact with solvents (acetone, mineral turpentine, etc.), or ammonia based cleaning products, as they may damage the anti-glare layer or plastic bezel.

To prevent UV damage to the plastic bezel, it is recommended that the sun cover be fitted when the unit is not in use for an extended period.

Cleaning the media port door

Clean the media port door regularly to avoid salt crystallization on the surface, causing water to leak into the card slot.

Checking the keys

Make sure that no keys are stuck in the down position. If one is stuck, wiggle the key to free it back to normal.

Checking the connectors

The connectors should be checked by visual inspection only. Push the connector plugs into the connector. If the connector plugs are equipped with a

lock, ensure that it is in the correct position.

NMEA Data logging

All serial output sentences sent over the NMEA TCP connection are logged to an internal file. You can export and review this file for service and fault finding purposes.

The maximum file size is predefined. If you have added several other files to the system (file recordings, music, pictures, PDF files), this may reduce the allowed file size for the log file.

The system logs as much data as possible within the file size limitation, and then it starts overwriting the oldest data.

Maintenance | S2009-2016 Fish Finder User Manual

Exporting the log file

The log file can be exported from the files dialog. When you select the Log database you are prompted to select a destination folder and

filename. Once accepted, the log file is written to the chosen location.

Software upgrades

The latest software is available for download from our website, navico-commercial.com/. Detailed instructions for how to install the software are included in the upgrade files.

Backing up your system data

It is recommended to regularly copy your system settings files as part of your back-up routine. The files can be copied to a card inserted in the card reader. Refer to "Files" on page
