9.11 Alignment of the sonar picture
Independent of the hull unit orientation, the alignment is always
defined as:
• the angle measured clockwise from the bow to the 0 degrees
transducer mark.
The 0 degrees transducer mark is located outermost on the
mounting flange, and it is marked as a red “0”. Depending on
the transducer mounting, it can be located at any angle on the
mounting flange, not necessarily as shown in the illustration
below.

alignment angle
Observe the following procedure to align the sonar picture.
1 Locate the 0 degrees transducer mark.
2 Estimate the approximate alignment angle (0 to 360
degrees) clockwise from the bow to the 0 degrees
transducer mark.
- The angle between each mounting bolt can be used as
an aid.
- 20 bolts standard version: 18 degrees between each
bolt.
- 24 bolts optional version: 15 degrees between each
bolt.
