1.3 Turning On/Off 1.4 Tone and Brilliance 1. Turning on: Press the POWER Switch. Self-test starts, showing the condition of the logic circuits. The program number is displayed. 1. Press the BRILL key. The tone and brilliance setting window appears. BRILL: ROM: OK DRAM: OK SRAM: OK BATTERY: OK TONE: LOW ▼ ▲ HIGH 8 LOW + HIGH 3 2. Press the [+] or [-] key for desired tone (in reality, Contrast). 3. Press the [▲] or [▼] key for desired brilliance.
1.6 Display Mode CAUTION The Mode Selector choose the display mode among NAV, DBS (depth below surface), HISTORY, LOGBOOK, OS DATA, HELP, and MENU. 1.6.1 DBS is not a water clearance below keel. Do not use this mode in shallow waters to avoid grounding. NAV mode 1.6.3 The depth from the transducer to the seabed (bottom clearance) is shown on the screen. Note “BELOW TRANSDUCER” appears at the bottom of the screen in this mode. This mode provides a mix of Contour and Strata displays.
1.6.4 LOGBOOK mode 1.6.5 The LOGBOOK shows time, depth and own ship position in tabular form in a pop-up window. The logging is selected with the INTERVAL option on the menu among 5 s, 1 min and 2 min. (See section 2.6.) OS DATA mode This display mode indicates own ship position, GPS-derived course and speed, and time and depth in digital form. You can read the data of your particular interest in large characters. The screen continues to display the sounding data in the background.
Enlarging data of interest 1.6.7 You can enlarge one of the data indications as follows: MENU display The menu provides functions which normally do not require frequent adjustment. For details see Chapter 2. 1. Press the [▲] or [▼] key to select the data you want to enlarge. Current section is circumscribed with the blue cursor. For example, select the depth cell. CLUTTER 9 (0∼16) INTERFERENCE REJECT 2. Press the [+] key.
• 1.7 Range Scale If the depth goes out of the correct display area, increase or decrease the range until the seabed appears near the center of the screen. Note: The AUTO MODE is cancelled whenever the range or the gain is changed. Adjust the Range Control, and current range selection is shown in the range display window. RANGE Clutter level (on the menu), which works as a threshold control to suppress overall noise, is automatically adjusted.
1.12 Draft Monochrome (amber) is the default setting. The Strata display contains multiple colors depending on the reflectivity from underwater objects of the sounding pulses. Red is strongest, followed by brown, orange, yellow, blue, and light blue. It is necessary to set the draft to use the DBS display mode, which shows depth below surface. 1. Select DBS with the MODE control. “Confirm and set ships draft to use DBS mode.” appears. 1.11 Shallow Depth Alarm 2.
2 MENU OPERATION 2.1 Menu Overview 2.2 Suppressing Low Level Noise The menu has several functions for advanced operation. Light-blue dots may appear overall screen. This is mainly due to dirty water or noise. This noise can be suppressed by adjusting CLUTTER (in reality, Threshold of the amplifier). 1. Select MENU with the MODE Selector. CLUTTER AUTO (0∼16) When the automatic mode is on, the suppression setting is automatically adjusted.
2.4 Picture Advance 2.6 Interval The picture advance speed determines how quickly the vertical scan lines run across the screen. The interval for sampling data for the LOGBOOK and HISTORY modes can be set with INTERVAL, among 5 s, 1 min and 2 min. The default setting is 1 min. 1. Select MENU with the MODE Selector. 2. Select PICTURE ADVANCE by pressing the [▲] or [▼] key. 3. Press the [+] or [-] key to select speed FAST or SLOW, respectively.
3 SYSTEM MENU 3.1 System Menu The system menu 1 appears. 5. With the cursor selecting MENU SELECT, operate the [-] or [+] key to select system menu desired; 1, 2 or 3. The system menu should be set just after installation and is not always necessary to be adjusted. If you change any items of the system menu or even if you open the system menu, the sounding picture will be cleared. There are three menus: 1,2,and 3.
3.2 System Menu 1 OS DATA: Selects own ship data display mode; DATA 1 or DATA 2. DATA1 is the default setting. If a navigation device is not connected to the FE-700, select DATA 2. DEPTH UNIT: Selects unit of depth measurement among meters, feet, or fathoms. Default setting is meters. LANGUAGE: Currently English is only available. If "ft" or "fa" is selected, the depth unit is shown in red characters. 3.
