TRANSDUCERS AND
CONE ANGLES
The sound waves from the
transducer
spread
out into the
water in
a cone
shaped
beam. This looks much
likethe beam from a
flashlight.
The
angle
between
the outside
edges
of
the
cone is the
cone
angle.
Eagle
offers a choice of
transducers with either an 8 or 20
degree
cone
angle.
These will
interchangewith
any
of the 192 kHz sonar
products.
In
otherwords,
use
any Eagle
sonar
instrumentwith
any Eagle
transducer
of the same
frequency
with
no loss of
performance. However,
the use of
any
other
manufacturers' transducer will
result in a loss of
performance.
Typically,
wide
cone
angle
transducers
(20
degrees)
are ideal for
operating
in shallow to
medium water
depths.
The 20
degree
cone
angle
allows
you
to see more of the
underwater world. In 15 feet of
water the 20
degree
cone
covers an area about
sixfeet across. The 8
degreetransducer
covers
only
about
a two foot circle.
LOWER LIMIT
To
change
the lower
limit,
first make
certain the
word "AUTO" is off
atthetop
ofthe
screen. This
indicatesthattheautomaticmode

Next,

the desired
lower limit
appears.
The

displaythe
new
lower limit
at the bottom of
the
screen. The
available
depth ranges
are:
10,20, 40, 60,
100,
200,400,
and
600 feet.
NOTE: The
maximum lower
limit the
ID-6300 can
display
is 600 feet.
However,
the actual
depth
that it
can reach
Is
dependent
on water and
bottom
conditions,
plus
the
quality
of the
transducer installation.

Changingthe
lowerlimit is
possible,
even if the
Automatic
function
is
on.
However,
the ID-6300
won't
accept
a lower
limit less than the
depth
of the
bottom while it's in
the
Automatic mode. For
example,
the lD-6300
is in
Automatic,
and the
range
isO to 60
feet,
with a bottom
signal
at 50 feet.
Selecting
a
lower limit of
40 feet
causes the ID-6300 to
sound an alert. The
lower
limit
stays
at 60 feet.
