Introduction
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this booklet is to give you a short introduction to the operational use of the SH40 sonar. It is not possible to explain all the functionality and possibilities in detail, it is therefore important that you familiarize yourself with the operator manual provided with the sonar.
Know your sonar!
Your SH40 sonar is a large and expensive instrument. It is still relatively easy to operate once you get to know the menus and buttons. The sonar comprises the following units:
• A colour display monitor
• A computer
• A control panel
• A transmitter- and receiver unit
• A hull unit with a transducer array
In this publication we will focus on the basic use of the display and control panel.
Click “Help”!
Installed on your SH40 sonar you will also find a comprehensive on-line help system. You may not be able to find your language, but everything written in the SH40 Operator manual is also available on the sonar display. When you click the Help button you will first see a small help text in a window below the menu.
In this window you can click Free to open the complete manual.
To close the manual, click the Free button at the lower left side of the large window.
But remember: When you open the complete on-line help manual, it will place itself on the top of the sonar picture!
