SECTION I

INTRODUCTION

1.1 GENERAL INFORMATION

Congratulations on the purchase of your new

Vii010

Color Fishfin-

der/GPS/Plotter.

We think you’ll appreciate the unit’s large

8”

display

which combines the most useful fishing display modes in 8 or 16 bright

colors together with GPS or other external Navaid data.

The V8010 provides simple and direct access to your navigation and

fishfindingdata using simple on-screen menus and one -button operations.

The Fishfinding modes include STANDARD displays of fish and the bottom

profile using either the 200,50, or 28Khz 1000 watt transmitters. There’s a

split-screen display of both the 200, and

50

(or 28) Khz frequencies together

called

STDISTD

mode which provides best views of fish detection and bottm

trackingtogether.The

ZOOMand~~TT~~~~~~modesmagnifyyourdepth

presentations for a better look at the fish in mid-water or on the sea bottom.

Graphic plotting and

CD1

displays steer you to waypoints efficiently. The

Plot tracker records your vessel’s track to destinations so you can trace the

path back home again. The Plot Tracer cursor helps spot the surface

temperature break points on the plotter so you can

find

the warm currents

and the fish. When the Raystar 100 GPS sensor is connected. automatic

satellite acquisition and tracking lets the

GPS mode turn the

V8010

into a full

navigation system

Although we could go on describing

the exciting new features such as Multi-

color

A-SCOPE,

SeaTalk or the

Raychart

Electronic Charting option, we’re sure

that you will enjoy will discovering and

using the many new features found in

your new

V8010.

INTRODUCTION 1

1.2 ABOUT THIS MANUAL

This manual contains important information to help you get the best

operation and performance from your new

V8010.

Although the unit is

pretty simple to master, please take the necessary time to read through the

each section.

In the event that you are using a GPS or a fishtinder for the first time, this

Introduction contains a brief discussion on the general principles of

fish-

finding and, if you’ve added the

Raystar

100 GPS sensor option to your

V8010

system, a brief description of how the GPS satellite system works is

included.

Section 2 contains very important information on the proper installation

of your new

V8010

Color Fishlinder/Plotter/Navigator. Although the typi-

cal installation might seem straight forward and simple, we highly recom-

mend that this section be read

thoroughly

and the guidelines for installation

be closely followed to obtain trouble-free and efficient operation of your

new unit.

Section 3 contains the operating instructions for the

V8010

Color

Echosounder and will guide you through the unit’s operating controls and

display layouts. To more easily recognize how to enable the various opera-

tions, the names of keys that must be pressed to corn lete the described

operation are enclosed in boxes, such as

I-,

or

RANGE

. In most cases,

rf

pictures, showing the correct displays for the desired entry, are included

next to each function.

Some of the functions appear on the screen in temporary menus or boxes

whenever the blue keys such as

m

or

ml

are pressed. Numeric

values appearing in the boxes can be changed by pressing the UP or DOWN

direction keys. Other menu functions are enabled when the corresponding

‘softkey” is pressed.

The best way to learn about your

V8010

is to dive right in. You can’t

damage the unit by randomly pressing keys. So don’t be afraid to experi-

ment. If at any time the results appear confusing, just push

themkey

and start again.

Section 4 contains some technical information on the Basic Care and

Maintenance for your unit. In the event that your

V8010

should ever

INTRODUCTION 2

experience an operational failure, it is recommended that all repair services

be provided by an authorized Raytheon service dealer or by the Raytheon

Factory Service Center.

Before proceeding, please take a few moments to fill out the Warranty

Registration Card located behind the front cover of this manual. Then

return the card to Raytheon Marine Company. No postage is required

ifthe

card is mailed in the U.S.A.. This card must be returned to assure the

registration of the warranty for your unit.

ECHO SOUNDING GENERAL INFORMATION

An echo sounder is a device which trans-

mits an ultrasonic energy wave into the

water; listens for echoes from that ultra-

sonic wave and then displays the returning

echoes onto the LCD panel or CRT video

display. The elapsed time that it takes for

the pulse energy to travel down through

the water and be reflected back as echoes

can be measured and converted into units

of depth in the echo sounder.

-:

TRANSDUCER

ENERGY WAVE

The frequency of this “ultrasonic” wave, the beam angle at which it is

transmitted, and the power at which it is sent will all

play

an important part

in determining the appearance of the echoes on the display.

The normal components of an echo sounder are a display unit containing

the electronic circuits, and a transducer for sending and receiving the sonic

energy. The echo sounder is one of the most useful pieces of electronic

equipment aboard a boat. In addition to indicating the depth of the water,

it can indicate whether the bottom is hard or soft, smooth or irregular in

contour and

whether

fish are present below the boat.

Echo returns from the bottom, from fish or fish schools, seaweed, grass,

bubbles, or plankton are received by the echo sounder in various echo

strengths. The bottom echo is usually the strongest echo return while

returns from fish are generally very weak. In color echo sounders, such as

the

V8010,

these different echoes are displayed in distinct colors (up to 16

colors can be used) for easy recognition by the operator. Whether fish

INTRODUCTION 3

echoes are displayed on the echo sounder (or not) can depend on several

factors including:

*The type or species of the fish

l

Number and sires of the fish

l

Depth of fish below the boat

l

Gain control setting

*Transmitter Power and frequency

l

Transducer beam angle

l

Speed of the boat

l

Turbulence in the water

1.3.l

DETERMINING

BOTTOM

CONDITIONS

To understand how bottom conditions affect the bottom echo’s appear-

ance on the display, consider the signal transmitted from the transducer as

a cone-shaped beam of approximately 10 degrees. If the sea bottom were

as hard and flat as a mirror, only the signal directly under the transducer

would be reflected back to the transducer, and there would be a narrow

bottom echo line printed on the display screen.

Soft(Mud] Bottom

/

Rock

[Live]

Bottom

This type of echo line is typical characteristic of hard sandy sea bottoms.

Sometimes when the depth is shallow and the bottom is

very hard

,a second

echo can appear at exactly double the depth of the true bottom echo.

If the sea bottom is softer (sea grasses or muddy), the echo bottom line

would print thicker on the screen. This is because the echo consists not only

of that weaker echo reflected from the top surface of the grass or mud, but

IN’I’BODUCTION

includes some energy that penetrates into the grass

,

soft

sand, or mud and

then reflects back to the transducer slightly delayed in time. Under some

conditions, the sonic energy is strong enough to penetrate the soft bottom

and show a harder sub-botton such as an oyster beds or ledges.

If the sea bottom is made up of coral beds, wrecks, or rock piles, the

irregular surfaces of the bottom structures provide a series of closely spaced

echo returns from the various angles of the bottom. On screen, the bottom

line appears irregular with long tails as shown in the “Live Bottom”

figure.

Generally, these bottom conditions provide an ideal habitat for locating

fish.

On your display the echoes are printed on the CRT screen beginning at

the right edge adjacent to the range scale marks. Each time the echo

sounder transmits and receives, the new echoes replace the old echoes at

the right edge and the picture is

shifted

to the left. You can see the received

echoes even more clearly when you turn on the A-Scope feature of the

V8010.

Eventually

and

lYll

the screen.

The

V8010

operates at either 200 Khz,

SOKhz,

or 28Khz. The 200 Khz fre-

quency

uses a

6O

beam angle to provide

excellent detection of small fish and

high resolution of bottom detail. The

SOKhzprovides

a larger fish search pat-

tern with its wider

12’

x

18’

beam angle

and deeper depth bottom tracking. The

28Khz frequency is best for fish search

and bottom detection in

very

deep

water using a 20’ x

27’

beam.

The Operation section describes how the various controls can be set for

optimum performance. So, please take the time to read the Operation

section thoroughly so you can always get the best results from the

The Navstar/GPS system is a satellite-based radio navigation system de-

signed to provide global, continuous 24 hour-per-day all weather, accurate

position data for navigators worldwide.

KNTRODUCTION

5

The GPS (GlobalPositioning System) is based

on a GPS receiver’s ability to accurately meas-

ure the propagation time of signals transmitted

from orbiting satellites.

These satellites transmit accurately timed sig-

nals along with a navigation message containing

the satellite’s position, precise time correction

signals, as well as almanac data for all of the

satellites in the constellation.

The

RAYSTAR

100

GPS sensor measures the time-of-arrival ofeach satellite

signal and calculates the range to each tracked satellite. If the range to the

satellites is known, the position of your vessel can be determined by

triangulation of the range data of the satellites in view, and presented in

Latitude and Longitude.

If it were possible to measure true satellite ranges directly, it would only

be necessary to track data from any two satellites to obtain a vessel’s

latitude/longitude. In actual practice, for marine navigation the receiver

must trackaminimum

ofthree

satellites.This

is necessaryto resolve timing errors including

the receiver’s own internal clock timing bias

error which must be factored into the various

range calculations.

Normally, the

RAYSTAR

100

tracks up to five

satellites

(if

visible)

and uses the best four of

the five for calculating position fixes. By us-

ing four satellites, the processor can deter-

mine the amount of clock error in each range

INTRODUCTION 6

calculation. The receiver subtracts the error bias equally from each range

solution until the LOP’s intersect. Theoretically, this process can produce

highly accurate position fixes for navigation. (+

I-

15M rms).

Continuous tracking of each satellite signal allows the receiver to perform

this timing adjustment process and to calculate accurate measurements to

the satellites. The

RAYSTAR

100

uses high-speed multiplexed scanning in a

single channel receiver. This receiver design method provides fast efficient

acquisition and accurate position updating, while saving in overall unit size

and weight, cost, and power consumption.

Unfortunately, the Department of Defense has included a special mode

into the GPS satellite system design which introduces variable timing errors

into the satellite signals. This mode is known as “Selective

Availability”and

when it is enabled, it is designed to provide less accurate fixes for all users

(except authorized military users). Accuracy in the order of +

/-

100 meters

rms 95

%

of the time is obtained when SA is ON. This means that 95

%

of

the time the actual position will be within a radius of

100

meters; 5

%

of the

time it will be outside of this 100 meter circle. Selective Availability has

been enabled

almost

continuously since early 1991.

Please continue reading the next section

ofthis

manual before proceeding

with the installation and operation of the

V8010

unit. There are some

important recommendations regarding successful installation practices for

obtaining the best echo sounder performance.

If you have elected to add the Raystar 100 GPS sensor option to your new

video sounder system, specific installation information for installing the

GPS sensor will be found in the Raystar

100

GPS Sensor manual.

INSTALLATION

2.1 GENERAL

Although your

V8010

is designed to the highest levels of quality and

performance, it can best attain those standards only when it has been

properly installed. This section provides the user with practical guidelines

to assist in the planning and installation of the echo sounder unit aboard

your vessel.

2.2 UNPACKING AND INSPECTION

Use care when unpacking the unit from it’s shipping carton to prevent

damage to the contents. It is also good practice to save the carton and the

interior packing material until the unit has been satisfactorily installed on

the vessel. The original packing material should be used in the unlikely

event that it is necessary to return the unit to the factory.

22.1 Equipment Supplied

The following items should be included in the carton with your

V8010

echo sounder unit. If an item is missing, please contact your Raytheon
