INSTALLATION PREPARATION PARTS SUPPLIED PARTS SUPPLIED Before installing your new Humminbird fishsinder, please ensure the following parts are included in the box: • Fishfinder • Transducer with 2.
INSTALLATION PREPARATION INSTALLATION OVERVIEW Determining How to Mount the Transducer Your Humminb ird fishfinder includes a standard transducer. This transducer can be mounted on the transom of the boat or bonded to the inside of a fiberglass hull boat.
INSTALLATION PREPARATION ALTERNATE M OUNTING METHODS ALTERNATE TRANSDUCERS AND MOUNTING METHODS Your Humminbird fishfinder comes with everything necessary for installation and operation on most boats. However, there are several situations which may require a different type of transducer.
INSTALLATION PREPARATION TRANSDUCER EXCHANGE TRANSDUCER EXCHANGE Other transducers are available as replacements for the standard transducer. You may exchange your new and unassembled transducer for another type by returning i t to the address listed in Customer Support.
INSTALLAT ION TRANSOM INSTALLATION Do not begin this transducer installation until you read the Installation Preparation in the Operation Guide. This chapter contains information critical to the correct installation of your transducer. Due to the wide variety of b oat hulls, only general instructions are presented in the installation guide.
INSTALLATION TRANSOM INSTALLATION • If the propeller(s) is (are) forward of the transom, it may be impossible to find an area clear from turbulence, and a different mounting technique or transducer type should be considered. Step Two - Drill the Mounting Holes 1.
INSTALLATION TRANSOM INSTALLATION Step Four - Mount the Transducer to the Transom 1. Apply silicone sealant to the mounting holes drilled into the transom.
mounting bracket. Drill this hole and install the screw after final testing and adjustments have been completed. INSTALLATION TRANSOM INSTALLATION Step Six - Route the Cable There are several ways to route the transducer c able to the to the area where the control head will be installed.
INSTALLATION INSIDE THE HULL INSTALLATION INSIDE THE HULL INSTALLATION Inside the hull installation requires the mount system and control head be installed and operational. See Installing the Control Head for instruction on installing the unit. Inside the hull mountin g generally produces good results in single thickness fiberglass - hulled boats.
The transducer cannot transmit through air. The water purges any air from between the transducer and the hull and fills any voids in the coarse fiberglass surface.
INSTALLATION INSIDE THE HULL INSTALLATION 3. Power up the Control Head. 4. Run the boat at various speeds and water depths while observing the screen on the Control Head. If the unit functions well at low speeds but b egins to skip or miss the bottom at higher speeds, the transducer needs to be moved.
INSTALLATION CONTROL HEAD INSTALLATION CONTROL HEAD INSTALLATION Step One - Determine Where to Mount Begin the installation by determining where to mount the control head.
fuse in the connection. If you must wire the control head directly to a battery, be sure to install an inline fuse holder.
INSTALLATION CONTROL HEAD INSTALLATION and one amp fuse (not inc luded) for the protection of the unit (Figure 21). Humminbird is not responsible for over voltage or over current failures. In order to minimize the potential for interference with other marine electronics a separate power source (such as a second batter y) may be necessary.
Optional: If the ca bles pass outside the mounting bracket, install the hole cover over the hole and fasten in place using the two #8 x 7/8” (22mm) wood screws (Figure 24).
INSTALLATION CONTROL HEAD INSTALLATION Step Five - Assembling the Connector Holder 1. Insert the cabl e connectors into the connector holder. The cable connectors are labeled, and there are corresponding labels on the connector holder (Figure 26).
INSTALLATION TEST THE INSTALLATION TEST THE INSTALLATION Testing should be performed with the boat in the water, however you can initially confirm basic operation with the boat trailered. Press POWER once to turn the unit on. There will be an audible chirp when any button is pressed to confirm the button press.
TESTING THE INSTALLATION After installation is complete and all connections are made, you are ready to test the installation prior to actual size. Thorough testing should be performed with the boat in the water; however, you can initially confirm basic operation with the boat trailered .
USING THE WIDE PORTRAIT SIMULATOR OPERATION The Wide Portrait is completely automatic and easy to use. Simply press the POWER button and the unit will locate and track the bottom from 2 feet to 600 feet changing ranges as necessary, dis play any structure or suspended fish and work at speeds from 0 to over 70 mph.
FEATURE MEMORY If your Wide Portrait is installed with a transducer connected, any changes you make to the set - up or User Options (see Control Functions) while in Simulator are retained in the unit’s me mory.
The graphic representation of the bottom may vary considerably dep ending on the composition and regularity of the bottom surface (see interpreting the On - screen Information). Any sonar return which is determined to be not a part of the bottom is shown between the surface and the bottom.
The graphic depiction of the bottom provides the user wi th an effective tool for understanding the composition of the bottom. If the bottom is hard and smooth, the bottom depiction is narrow and dense. If the bottom is soft mud or sand, the depiction will be thick and less dense.
Thermoclines are sharp differences in water temperature. These are easily identified by the continuous nature of the return. When a sonar signal is reflected off the bottom back to the transducer, there is often enough energy lef t in the signal to be reflected off the surface of the water back to the bottom a second time.
ID+ adds an additional piece of information to help th e user locate fish. On selected fish symbols, the digital depth of the designated fish is drawn to help locate the fish vertically. This is especially helpful in setting bait depths or for downrigger operation.
If a Wide Side transducer is being used (see Using Alternative Transducers), the VIEW button is u sed to select one of four views available: Both, Left, Right, and Down. The three lower buttons, MENU, UP, ARROW, and DOWN ARROW work together to control the Wide Portrait menu - controlled user functions.
All menus use the same basic layout as s hown in figure F. The heading at the top describes the menu function (see Menu Functions for more details on individual functions). The UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW symbols to the left of the menu indicate which buttons are available for adjustment.
Increasing the bias ( +1 through +5 ) causes the unit to display the information from progressively smaller sonar returns. By decreasing the sensitivity bias (- 1 through – 5) , the unit effectively filters small sonar returns. In murk y or muddy water, it is often advantageous to reduce the sensitivity bias.
The Wide Portrait automatically adjusts the depth range depending on the depth of the water. The unit tries to main tain the bottom depiction about 2/3 down the total range (for example, in 20 feet of water, the 0 - 30 foot range would be selected) . This provides the best display resolution and therefore the best target separation possible.
Zoom Zoom is similar to Depth Range in that it controls the range of information displayed in the graphics area of the display. Zoom, however, allows selection of ranges beneath the surf ace so any area of water between the surface and the bottom can be enlarged to provide more detailed information.
When the menu disappears, the graphics area of the screen will be divided in half. Full range information is on the right, Zoom information on the left. The digital depth readout is unaffected by Zoom. Pressing the DOWN ARROW again to highlight “Manual” activates Manual Zoom.
To enable Depth Alarm, press MENU repeatedly until the Depth Alarm menu is on - screen. The Factory Setting is “Off”. Use the DOWN ARROW to highlight On. The menu will expand to s how the current Depth Alarm setting. Use the UP or DOWN ARROW to set the desired depth for alarm activation.
To disable the Fish Alarm, press MENU until the Fish Alarm menu appears on - screen. Use the UP ARROW to highlight “Off”, and let the menu time out. Fish Alarm settings are remembered when the unit is powered off. Triplog Triplog provides a running log of information based on input from the Temp/Speed sensor.
Once Triplog is enabled, pressing MENU to bring the Triplog menu on - screen now shows an additional option. “Reset”. By selecting Reset, the ti mer and distance log resets to 0 and the Triplog will begin to calculate elapsed time, distance traveled, and average speed from the time of reset.
Eleven contrast settings, +5 to – 5 are possible. The display contrast will change as the adjustment is made so the optimum level of contrast can easily be adjusted. Use the ARROW button s to highlight the desired selection. The Wide Portrait will reset to the factory setting when the unit is powered off.
The unit remembers Fish ID setting when powered off. Numeral Size Numeral Size is the next Option menu. Two options are available: “Big” and “Small”. The factory setting is Big. With this setting, the digital depth and speed and temp numerals are drawn large enough to be readable from across the boat.
The Wide Portrait will also work with older Dual beam transducers. If you are using a Dual beam transducer, you must manually select “Dual” from the transducer menu as the Dual Beam transducer cannot be identified automatically.
The Reset function is an important first step in trouble - shooting problems to ensure that a user - selected setting is not the cause for the perceived problem. CUSTOMIZING SET - UP FUNCTIONS The Wide Portrait allows the user to customize many features to work best for a particular type of use.
After the menu times out, the diagnostic screen will appear. Upon enabling diagnostic, the Wide Portrait will perform a self - test. This test confirms the operation of all internal circuitry.
Press MENU to exit Diagnostic. USING ALTERNATIVE TRANSDUCERS The Wide Portrait is designed to operate with the Tri - Beam transducer included standard with the product. The standard transducer can be mounted on the transom of the boat, or bonded to t he inside of most fiberglass hulls.
achieved by viewing only one side. To change the view, simply press the VIEW button repeatedly until the desired view is on - screen. The Down view is similar to the traditional view when using the standard transducer, however there is no Tri - beam information available such as fish location.
