1 Section 1: Read Me First! How this manual can get you out on the road, fast! Welcome to the exciting world of digital sonar and GPS! We know you're anxious to begin navigating an d finding fish, but we have a favor to ask.
2 After you have gained some experience with your sonar, you'll want to check out Section 4, which discusses more advanced Sonar Options and Other Features .
3 It's important to us (and our power users), but, if you don't care how many watts of power the unit has, or how many waypoints the your unit can store, skip ahead to important information on how the sonar works, on page 5. (Background on GPS begins on page 6.
4 Transmitter: .................... 3,000 watts pe ak-to-peak/375 watts RMS. Sonar sounding depth capability: ............ LMS-527cDF: 2,500 feet/762 meters. LMS-522c: 1,000 feet/305 meters. (Actual capability depends on transducer configuration and installation, bottom com- position and water conditions.
5 Mapping memory: ...........Up to 1 GB o n one MMC (or SD) card. Position updates: ........... Every se cond. Position points: .............. 1,000 wayp oints; 1,000 event marker icons. Audible alarms: .............. Arrival/ off-course/anchor. Graphic symbols for waypoints or event marker icons: .
6 The receiver amplifies this return si gnal, or echo, and sends it to the display, where an image of the object appears on the scrolling sonar chart. The sonar's microprocessor calculates the time lapse between the transmitted signal and echo return to determine the distance to the object.
7 The performance doesn't stop there. Stored in the permanent memory of each unit is a basic background map of the entire world. We lock it in here at the factory — you can't change or erase this map.
8 tom map files and GPS data files ca n be used interchangeably between your gimbal-mounted unit and the hand-held iFINDER ™ GPS re- ceiver.) Your unit automatically reads Custom Map Files directly from the MMC or SDC. To use a custom map, all you need to do is slide an MMC containing a map into the unit.
9 A minimum of three satellites are re quired to determine a 2D fix. The system requires signal receptio n from three satellites in order to determine a position. This is called a 2D fix. It takes four satellites to determine both position and elevat ion (your height above sea level — also called altitude.
10 However, there are some fringe areas of the U.S., including parts of Alaska, that do not yet receive robu st WAAS coverage. Continued WAAS development is planned to extend W AAS coverage in the years to come. WAAS boosts the accuracy of land GPS navigation, but the system is designed for aircraft.
11 Keyboard The other keys perform a variety of functions. When the text refers to a key to press, the key is shown in bo ld, sans serif type. For example , the "Enter/Icons" key is shown as ENT and the "Menu" key is shown as MENU .
12 Notes.
13 Section 2: Installation Preparations You can install the sonar and GPS sy stems in some other order if you prefer, but we recommend this installation sequence: Caution: You should read over this entire installation section before drill- ing any holes in your vehicle or vessel! 1.
14 Read these instructions carefully before attempting the installation. Determine which of the mounting positions is right for your boat. Re- member, the transducer installation is the most critical part of a sonar installation.
15 at speeds faster than 35 mph. Typically, a good transom location on aluminum boats is between the ribs closest to the engine. 3. The transducer should be installed with its face pointing straight down, if possible. For shoot-thru applications: Many popular fishing boat hulls have a flat keel pad that offers a good mounting surface.
16 This will usually give you the best combination of smooth water flow and protection from bangs and bumps. Align transducer centerline with hull bottom.
17 Second, the transducer angle cannot be adjusted for the best fish arches on your sonar display. (Thi s is not an issue for flasher-style sonars.) Lack of angle adjustment can be particularly troublesome on hulls that sit with the bow high when at rest or at slow trolling speeds.
18 Place the ratchets into the bracket with the letter "A" aligned with the al ig nme nt m ar k molded into the bracket. Place the ratchets onto the transducer with the letter "A" aligned with the 12 o 'cl oc k position on the transducer stem.
19 If the transducer's face isn't parallel with the ground, remove the transducer and ratchets from the br acket. Place the ratchets into the holes in the bracket with the letter "B" aligned with the dot stamped in the bracket. Reassemble the transducer and bracket and place them against the transom.
20 Assemble transducer and bracket. 3. Assembling the transducer. A. One-piece bracket: Once you determine the correct position for the ratchets, assemble the transducer as shown in the following fig- ure. Don't tighten the lock nut at this time.
21 Position transducer mount on transom and mark mounting holes. Side view shown, left, and seen from above at right. 5. Attaching transducer to transom. A. One-piece bracket: Remove the transducer from the bracket and re-assemble it with the cable passing through the bracket over the bolt as shown in the following figures.
22 Align transducer centerline with hull bottom and attach transducer to transom. Rear view of dual-frequency Skimmer shown. 6. Route the transducer cable through or over the transom to the sonar unit. Make sure to leav e some slack in the cable at the transducer.
23 Trolling Motor Bracket Installation (single-frequency only) 1. Attach the optional TMB-S bracket to the transducer as shown in the following figure, using the hardware supplied with the transducer. (Note: The internal tooth washer is supplied with the TMB-S.
24 Transducer angles and their effects on fish arches. If the arch slopes up – but not back down – then the front of the trans- ducer is too high and needs to be lowered. If only the back half of the arch is printed, then the nose of th e transducer is angled too far down and needs to be raised.
25 WARNING: Do not remove any material from your inner hull unless you know the hull's composition. Careless grinding or cutting on your hull can result in damage that could sink your boat. Contact your boat dealer or manufac- turer to confirm your hull specifications.
26 To choose the proper location for shoot-thru-hull mounting, follow these testing procedures: (You may need a helper to complete these steps.) 1. Anchor the boat in about 30 feet of water.
27 that your selected location will work under all conditions, make a test run with the boat on plane and observe the bottom signal. You'll need to figure some way to prop the transd ucer into position while you make your test run. (A brick or two might be sufficient to hold it in place.
28 2. The epoxy consists of the epoxy itself and a hardener. Remove the two compounds from the package and place them on the paper plate. Thoroughly stir the two compounds together until the mixture has a uniform color and consistency. Do not mix too fast or bubbles will form in the epoxy.
29 Once you've determined the proper location for the unit, place the sen- sor on the transom. The bottom of the bracket should be flush with the hull's bottom. Using the sensor as a template, mark the hull for the screws' pilot holes. Drill four 1/8" ho les, one in each end of the slots.
30 The sensor is now ready for use. Connect the sensor to the sonar socket on the back of your unit and connect the transducer to the speed sen- sor's socket. If you have any questions concerning the installation of the sensor, please contact your local boat dealer.
31 wire nuts, wrapping them with electrical tape or both. (You should cut off the bare wire before taping off the ends.) Powering Your Display Unit The display unit works from a 12-volt DC battery system. Attach the display power cable (with provided 3-amp fuse) to an accessory switch or power bus.
32 The display power cable has three wires, white, red and black. Red is the pos it iv e (+) le ad, bl ac k is ne ga tiv e (–) or gr oun d. Th e w hit e w ire is u n- used by your unit and should be capped. Make sure to attach the in-line fuse holder to the red lead as close to the pow er source as possible.
33 Power Diagram B Use this method if you are only powering your display unit and are not powering a NMEA 2000 network or any NMEA 2000 accessory device, including a GPS module.
34 WARNING: The NMEA 2000 network bus is always on and constantly drawing power. You must connect NMEA power to a switched power source so you can turn off th e network when not in use. Failure to connect to and use a power switch will drain your boat battery, which could stop your boat's operation.
35 LMS-522c and LMS-527cDF cable connections. Mounting the Unit: Bracket or Portable You can install your unit on the dash with the gimbal bracket or it can be used with a portable power pack. The unit must be mounted in a location with a clear view of th e sky, so the internal GPS an- tenna can lock-on to satellite signals.
36 If you use the supplied bracket, you may be interested in the optional R-A-M ® bracket mounting system. This converts the unit's gimbal bracket to a swivel mount, which can be used on the dash or overhead mounting positions. Optional R-A-M mounting system.
37 Install the gimbal bracket. Adjust the bracket so the arms slope to- ward the front of your unit. Drill a 1-inch (25.4 mm) hole in the dash for the power, transducer and antenna cables. The best location for this hole is immediately under the gimbal bracket location.
38 After drilling the hole, pass the transducer connector up through the hole from under the dash, followe d by antenna connector. Pass the power cable's bare-wire end down though the hole from the top. If you wish, you can fill in the hole around the cables with a good ma- rine caulking compound.
39 MMC or SD Card Memory Card Installation Your unit uses a MultiMedia Card to store information, such as sonar logs, custom maps, waypoints, trails and other GPS data.
40 To insert a MMC or SD Card 1. Open the card compartment door. 2. Grasp the bottom of the MMC and push the top of the card into the slot. Once the card is started, use your fingernails to slide it the rest of the way to the left, until it is firmly seated in the slot.
