4. 사용 설명서
4.1 전원 켜기
Once the transducer is correctly installed and connected, ensure your Lowrance or Simrad fish finder unit is powered on. The transducer will automatically begin transmitting and receiving sonar signals, and the display unit will process and show the underwater imagery.
4.2 소나 모드
The Active Imaging 3-In-1 Transducer supports multiple high-performance sonar modes:
- 기존 CHIRP 소나: 선명하고 고해상도의 이미지를 제공합니다. views of fish arches and structure directly beneath your boat. Ideal for general fish finding and depth readings.
- 다운스캔 이미징: Offers photo-like views of structure and fish directly below your boat. This mode excels at identifying bottom composition, submerged timber, and other detailed underwater objects.
- 측면 스캔 영상 촬영: 수중 활동 범위를 넓혀줍니다 view to the sides of your boat, revealing structure and fish targets over a wide area. This is particularly useful for scouting large areas quickly and locating hidden structures.
Navigate through your fish finder's menu system to select and customize the desired sonar display modes. You can adjust settings such as sensitivity, range, color palettes, and scroll speed to optimize the display for current water conditions and your specific fishing needs.
4.3 FishReveal™ Smart Target View
The innovative FishReveal™ feature allows you to combine the excellent target separation of CHIRP sonar with the high-resolution, detailed structure views of DownScan Imaging on a single screen. This unique overlay helps you easily identify fish targets that are holding within or around submerged structures, making them stand out clearly on your display.
5. 유지관리
Regular maintenance is crucial for ensuring the optimal performance and longevity of your Active Imaging 3-In-1 Transducer.
- 청소: After each use, especially in saltwater, thoroughly clean the transducer face with fresh water and a soft cloth. This removes marine growth, dirt, and debris that can impede sonar signals. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or sharp tools that could scratch or damage the transducer surface.
- 점검: Periodically inspect the transducer cable and all connections for any signs of wear, cuts, kinks, or corrosion. Ensure that all mounting hardware remains tight and secure. Loose hardware can affect performance or lead to loss of the transducer.
- 겨울철 : If storing your boat in freezing temperatures, ensure the transducer is not exposed to ice. Ice expansion can cause severe damage to the transducer element. If possible, remove the transducer or ensure it is completely drained of water.
Adhering to these maintenance guidelines will help preserve the high-quality imaging capabilities of your transducer.
