1. OPERATION 1.2 Power On/Off 1.3 1. Press the /BRILL key to turn on the power. The unit beeps, the startup screen appears, and then the equipment checks the ROM and RAM for proper operation. After the completion of the equipment check, the last-used display appears. Adjusting Display Contrast and Brilliance 1. Press the /BRILL key momentarily to show the contrast/brilliance adjustment window. (The FCV-585 does not have the contrast function.
1. OPERATION 2. Rotate the MODE knob again to choose the display mode desired. The screen you chose appears soon thereafter. G:AF R:A 50/200 W 1/1 0 Single frequency display 0 0.0 50 kHz picture 200 kHz picture 20 20 Low frequency (50 kHz) The sounder uses ultrasonic signals to detect bottom conditions. The lower the frequency of the signal, the wider the detection area. Therefore, the 50 kHz frequency is useful for general detection and judging bottom condition.
1. OPERATION use on the Display menu. The default settings are as follows. Bottom zoom display This mode expands bottom and bottom fish on the left-half window. This mode is useful for determining bottom contour. When the bottom depth increases, the display automatically shifts to keep the bottom echo at the lower part of the screen.
1. OPERATION 1.5 Choosing Range Note: The range mode indication, which appears at the top-left corner, may be turned on or off with Header Info on the Display menu. For details, see page 18. The basic range may be chosen in Auto or Manual mode. 1. Press the RANGE key to open the range setting window. 1.6 Range Adjusting Gain The gain may be adjusted automatically (Fishing or Cruising) or manually.
1. OPERATION Manual gain adjustment The GAIN knob adjusts the sensitivity of the receiver. Generally, use a higher gain setting for greater depths and a lower setting for shallower waters. G:AF R:A 50k W 1/1 0 VRM Depth to VRM 20 CAUTION 37.9 40 Use the proper gain setting. 60 Incorrect gain may produce wrong depth indication, possibly resulting in a dangerous situation. 49.6 m 80 How to measure depth with the VRM 1.

Note that all default ranges are restored whenever the depth unit is changed. Therefore, change the depth unit before changing the preset ranges. The System menu mainly consists of items which once set do not require frequent adjustment. This menu has nine sub menus. To display each sub menu, do the followings.
2. SYSTEM MENU 2.5 Units Menu Temp: If the water temperature indication has error, you can correct it here, when “Own” is selected as temperature source. For example, if the water temperature indication is 2° higher than actual water temperature, enter -2. The setting range is -20.0 to +20.0 °F. Units Depth Temp Speed Wind Distance : ft : °F : kt : kt : nm Speed (STW): If the speed indication has error, you can correct it here, when “Own” is selected as speed source.
3. MAINTENANCE, TROUBLESHOOTING 3.3 Marine life on the transducer face will result in a gradual decrease in sensitivity. Check the transducer face for cleanliness each time the boat is dry-docked. Carefully remove any marine life with a piece of wood or fine-grade sandpaper. WARNING ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD Do not open the equipment. Only qualified personnel should work inside the equipment. 3.1 3.4 Regular maintenance is essential for good performance.
3. MAINTENANCE, TROUBLESHOOTING 3.6 Troubleshooting 3.7 The table below provides basic troubleshooting procedures which the user may follow to restore normal operation. If you feel your unit is not working properly, conduct the diagnostic test to find the problem. If you cannot restore normal operation, contact your dealer for advice. Troubleshooting table If... neither echo nor fixed range scale appears 1. Press the MENU/ESC key to open the menu. 2.
3. MAINTENANCE, TROUBLESHOOTING Checking GAIN knob: Rotate the knob. The indication goes higher with clockwise rotation; lower with counterclockwise rotation. Press the knob. The knob corresponding on-screen circle "lights" in red if the knob is normal. Checking MODE knob: Rotate the knob, and corresponding on-screen circle "lights" in red and white alternately. 5. To return to the Tests menu, press the MENU/ESC key three times. 6. Press the MENU/ESC key twice to close the window. 3.8 5.
4. 4.1 INSTALLATION Display Unit Note: When loosening the knob to adjust the angle of the display, do not decline the unit 90-degree backward. The cable connector may be damaged if it contacts the bracket. Mounting considerations The display unit can be installed on a tabletop or flush mounted in a panel. When choosing a location keep the following in mind: 6. Attach the hard cover to the display unit. • The temperature and humidity should be moderate and stable.
4. INSTALLATION 4.2 Thru-hull Mount Transducer 22 24 Transducer mounting location The thru-hull mount transducer (520-5PSD, 520-5MSD) provides the best performance of all, since the transducer protrudes from the hull and the effect of air bubbles and turbulence near the hull skin is reduced. When the boat has a keel, the transducer should be at least 30 cm away from it. Typical thru-hull mountings are shown in the figure on the next page.
4. INSTALLATION Typical thru-hull mount transducer installations Hole for stuffing tube BOW Flat Washer Upper Half Rubber Washer Fairing Block Lower Half Hull Saw along slope of hull. Deep-V Hull Construction of fairing block 3. Drill a hole just large enough to pass the threaded stuffing tube of the transducer through the hull, making sure it is drilled vertically. 4.
4. INSTALLATION 4.3 Transom Mount Transducer 5x20 The transom mount transducer is very commonly employed, usually on relatively small I/ O or outboard boats. Do not use this method on an inboard motor boat because turbulence is created by the propeller ahead of the transducer. DO NOT overtighten screws. They may be damaged. 5x20 No.1 M5x14 525-5PWD Choose the installation method depending on the rise angle of the hull. Parallel with hull Transom 5° less than 10° Tape Mount at the stripe.
4. INSTALLATION Remarks on installation • Turn off the engine and anchor the boat while installing the equipment. • Install the transducer in the engine room. • Except for installing the transducer to the bottom of hull, do not turn on its power so it may be damaged.
4. INSTALLATION b)Gently dismount the transducer with a knife or a piece of wood. c)Reattach the transducer elsewhere as shown in "Attaching the transducer." d)Check the installation again. Pre-test for speed and temperature Connect the sensor to the instrument and spin the paddlewheel. Check for a speed reading and the approximate air temperature. If there is no reading, return the sensor to your place of purchase.
4. INSTALLATION Other angles: The shim is required. Skip to step 2 of "Adjusting". If you do not know the transom angle, temporarily attach the bracket and sensor to the transom to determine if the plastic shim is needed. 5. Using the three #10 x 1-1/4" self-tapping screws, temporarily screw the bracket to the hull. DO NOT tighten the screws completely at this time. Follow the step 1-4 in "Attaching the sensor to the bracket", before proceeding with "Adjusting".
4. INSTALLATION 2. Insert the sensor's pivot arms into the slots near the top of the bracket. 3. Maintain pressure until the pivot arms click into place. 4. Rotate the sensor downward until the bottom snaps into the bracket. 5. Close the retaining cover to prevent the accidental release of the sensor when the boat is underway. 3. If the bracket has been temporarily fastened to the transom, remove it.
4. INSTALLATION 8. Position the two cable clamps and fasten them in place. If used, push the cable cover over the cable and screw it in place. 9. Route the cable to the instrument being careful not to tear the cable jacket when passing it though the bulkhead(s) and other parts of the boat. To reduce electrical interference, separate the sensor cable from other electrical wiring and "noise" sources. Coil any excess cable and secure it in place with zip-ties to prevent damage. 4.
4. INSTALLATION 3. Set the sensor holder to the holder guide from inside the boat and then tighten the locknut. 4. Launch the boat to check for water leakage around the sensor. Thru-hull mount water temperature sensor T-02MSB, T-03MSB • Select a suitable mounting location considering the following points: • Select a mid boat flat position.

The signal line ground is isolated from the chassis ground, however the power line is not insulated. Therefore, when connecting eternal equipment having positive ground, do not ground the signal line to the chassis.
