• Check cables between transceiver unit, processor unit and
monitor unit.

Abnormal noise from hull unit
Check if the drive shaft in the hull unit is sufficiently greased. See
section 8.2.
Bottom echo is unsteady.
• Rough seas. Distance to the bottom changes due to rolling and
pitching.

pitching and rolling are apt to affect detection of echo.

the [TX/RX Setting] menu.
