www.reelschematic.com How Sonar Works www.reelschematic.com Sonar technology is based on sound waves. The Matrix Fishing System uses sonar to locate and define structure, bottom contour and composition, as well as depth directly below the transducer.
www.reelschematic.com WideSide Sonar www.reelschematic.com (with Optional-Purchase WideSide Transducer) Your Matrix 67 Fishing System also supports WideSide sonar with the purchase of an additional WideSide transducer. The WideSide transducer is a specialized "side-looking" transducer that is extremely useful for bank fishing or looking for bait fish in open water. The WideSide transducer uses three different sonar elements that transmit signals to the left, right and straight down from your boat.
Your Matrix Fishing System supports Navionics® Gold Chart www.reelschematic.com www.reelschematic.com TM marine cartography and Navionics® HotMaps 2004 Gold for inland fishing. NOTE: Your Matrix Fishing System does not support Navionics® Classic Charts, only Navionics® Gold Charts and Navionics® HotMapsTM 2004 Gold Charts.
www.reelschematic.com www.reelschematic.com What’s On the Sonar Display The Matrix Fishing System can display a variety of useful information about the area under and adjacent Depth - water depth; can be set to alarm when the water becomes too shallow. Cursor - available in Freeze Frame and can be sonar return and bottom depth below the cursor.
www.reelschematic.com www.reelschematic.com to your boat, including the following items: positioned in the Sonar View to provide depth of a Structure - where fish may be hiding. 200 kHz, Narrow Beam Shaded Fish Symbol 83 kHz, Wide Beam Hollow Fish Symbol Thermoclines - layers of water with different temperatures that appear at different depths and different times of the year. A thermocline typically appears as a continuous band of many gray levels moving across the display at the same depth.
www.reelschematic.com www.reelschematic.com Views The views available on your Matrix Fishing System are: Sonar views: Navigation views: • Sonar View • Zoom View • 200/83 kHz Split Sonar View • Big Digits View • Side Beam View • WideSide View • Bird’s Eye View • Chart View • Combo View NOTE: Side Beam View and WideSide View require the purchase of the QuadraBeamTM transducer for the Side Beam View and the WideSide transducer for the WideSide View. You can visit our website at www.humminbird.
www.reelschematic.com www.reelschematic.com Sonar View Sonar View presents a historical log of sonar returns. Depth is always displayed. Readouts for temperature and speed are automatically displayed if the appropriate accessory is connected. The most recent sonar returns are charted on the right side of the window; as new information is received, the older information is moved across the display to the left. A Digital Depth Readout is displayed in the upper left corner.
www.reelschematic.com Understanding Sonar History www.reelschematic.com It is important to understand the significance of the Matrix Fishing System display. The display does NOT show a literal 3-dimensional representation of what is under the water. Each vertical band of data received by the control head and plotted on the display represents something that was detected by a sonar return at a particular time.
www.reelschematic.com Bottom Presentation www.reelschematic.com As the boat moves, the unit charts the changes in depth on the display to create a profile of the Bottom Contour. The type of bottom can be determined from the return charted on the display. A Hard Bottom such as compacted sediment or flat rock appears as a thinner line across the display. A Soft Bottom such as mud or sand appears as a thicker line across the display. Rocky Bottoms have a broken, random appearance.
www.reelschematic.com Inverse is a method where weak returns are shown with dark www.reelschematic.com pixels and strong returns with lighter pixels. This has the benefit of ensuring that weak signals will be clearly visible on the display. Structure ID® represents weak returns as light pixels and strong returns as dark pixels. This has the benefit of ensuring that strong returns will be clearly visible on the display.
www.reelschematic.com Sonar Zoom View www.reelschematic.com Sonar Zoom View increases the displayed resolution to separate sonar returns that are very close together, such as those caused by fish suspended close to the bottom or within structure.
