7.10 ACCU-FISH
TM
The ACCU-FISH
TM
feature estimates the length of each fish and shows a fish symbol
and depth value or fish length. This feature requires appropriate transducer and either
Network Sounder BBDS1 or DFF series.
Application consideration
• The information given by this feature is intended for reference only.
• ACCU-FISH
TM
uses both low and high frequency echoes for the measurements re-
gardless of the frequency mode in use.
• The intensity of an echo depends on fish species. If the indicated length is different
from the true length, you can apply an offset in the [Sounder] - [ACCU-Fish Size
Correction] menu of the main menu.
• 50 kHz and 200 kHz beams are transmitted alternately without reference to the cur-
rent display mode.
• To reduce the error, the detection area must be 2 to 100 meters from the surface.
• This feature cannot be used with inside-hull transducers since fish may not be de-
tected, depending on the transducer's frequency. Even if fish are detected, the indi-
cated fish length may be smaller than the actual length.
