2.1 Handbook information 2.2 Product overview This handbook contains important information related to the installation of your Raymarine sonar module. CP300 product overview This handbook contains important information to help you: The CP300 is a traditional ClearPulseTM sonar module. In conjunction with a compatible multifunction display, the CP300 provides a detailed view of the water beneath your vessel including the bottom, enabling you to identify fish and other objects.
2.3 Sonar technology 2.4 Raymarine sonar modules Traditional sonar technology The table below lists Raymarine’s ClearPulseTM sonar modules. Traditional sonar uses a single carrier frequency or carrier wave for the sonar ping. The sonar works by measuring the time it takes the ping echo to return to the transducer to determine target depth.

However, if you find it necessary to clean the unit, please follow the steps below: 1. Ensure power is switched off. 2. Wipe unit clean with a damp cloth. 3. If necessary, use a mild detergent solution to remove grease marks. • Examine cables for signs of damage, such as chafing, cuts or nicks.
7.3 Transducer cleaning Growth can collect on the bottom of the transducer, this can reduce performance. To prevent the build up of sea growth, coat the transducer with a thin layer of water based antifouling paint, available from your local marine dealer. Reapply paint every 6 months or at the beginning of each boating season. Certain smart transducers have restrictions on where antifouling paint is applied. Please consult your dealer.
