The satellite-based system has been developed and is operated by the US Department of Defence in order to provide an accurate and reliable service, which include a 24-hour global coverage. The GPS system consists of approx. 24 satellites which orbit around the Earth at an alti- tude of approx. 20,200 km. The satellites transmit perfectly syncron- ized data. However, depending on the position, the signals will reach the receiver at a slightly different time. By adding the measured time difference to the known position of the satellites it is possible to calcu- late the ship’s position to within a few meters.      5

and menu structure described in chapter 2 before you start out, and then proceed with 2.2 Getting started. See also Appendix A, Glossary of terms for description of abbrevia- tions, etc. If your CE32 MKII is the monochrome version, it will not be possible to apply the color features described in the manual. -%$ The CE32 MKII is sealed and does not contain any user serv- iceable parts. Opening of the unit will void its warranty. Touching electrical parts inside may cause bodily harm or death. If the unit is not working properly, please check section 8.8 Troubleshooting. If your CE32 MKII requires servicing or repair, cal your authorized SIMRAD dealer. .&$/#&0.$12 Check that the DC power sup- plied to the unit is within the range of 10 to 32 volts. Note that the ap- ropriate fuse must be employed (see the fuse rating in section 8.4 Electrical connections. Ensure that the power cord is firmly attached. %3 To ensure optimum performance of your equipment and to reduce electrical interference and risk of electrical shock, you need to properly ground the unit to the ship’s ground, using the ground screw on the back of the unit.      6

methods of navigation.The easiest and most straightforward mode is to start with Chart/ cursor navigation described just below. After getting more acquainted with the unit and having explored the setup functions, you can enjoy the more enhanced features, such as Route navigation or Track navigation. Point 2:Navigation setup is preset from the fac- tory to e.g. ’RHUMBLINE’ navigation mode, ’MAGNETIC’ course and bearing indication, all alarms are set to ’OFF’ -all values are changeable by the user to suit individual needs - see section 6.1.1 Navigation setup. To start the chart/cursor navigation will require that the cursor is already activated in the chart display. If you currently have a chart display on the screen, all you do to activate the cursor is press the cursor key. And if your current display is something different than the chart display:
[GOTO]                      You will now have a course line from actual position (ship’s position) to destination (cursor’s position).

its transducer and underwater objects such as fish, lake bottom or seabed. It does this by utilizing the fact that an ultrasonic wave transmitted through water travels at a nearly constant speed of 4800 feet (1500 meters) per second. When a sound wave strikes an underwater object such as fish or sea bottom, part of the sound wave is reflected back toward the source. Thus by calculating the time difference between the transmission of a sound wave and the recep- tion of the reflected sound wave, the depth to the object can be determined. The entire process begins in the display unit. Transmitter power is sent to the transducer as a short pulse of electrical energy. The electrical signal produced by the transmitter is converted into an ultrasonic signal by the transducer and transmitted into the water. Any reflected signals from intervening objects (such as a fish school) are received by the transducer and converted back into an elec- trical signal. It is then amplified in the amplifier section, and finally, displayed on the screen. The picture displayed is made up of a series of vertical scan lines (pings), one for each transmission. Each line represents a ’snapshot’ of what has occured beneath the boat. The series of snapshots are accumulated side by side across the screen, and the resulting contours of the bottom and fish between the bot- tom and surface are displayed.        The CE32 MKII provides four types of echosounder displays: standard, bot- tom zoom, marker zoom and A-scope. Each display has its advantages and dis- advantages. Select the appropriate setup for the echosounder display in the ’Presentation setup’ and ’Echosounder setup’ displays, considering current sea area and target fish.

sor begins to send electrical pulses to the transducer. The ceramic resonator in the transducer has a special property which enables it to change dimensions slightly when a varying voltage is applied. The voltage is thus converted to mechanical vibrations (sound waves) which are then transmitted down through the water. See Figure 1 The sound waves move through the water until they encounter a change in density, such as a fish or the bottom. This causes the sound waves to "echo" back up through the water. When the reflected sound waves (echoes) hit the transducer the ceramic disk vibrates at the same fre- quency. This generates a varying voltage between the disk surfaces. This voltage goes back up through the cable to the re- ceiver. The CE32 MKII processes the sig- nals and presents them on the display screen. See Figure 2

er" when transmitting, and as a "microphone" when the echo sound is re- ceiving. Similar to the way a flashlight focuses light, most of the sound from your transducer is focused downwards with a smaller amount going out to the sides. The amount of focusing of the sound beam is expressed as a "beamwidth".

speed, as well as on the depth of the fish. When the vessel is at rest, the echo traces will appear stretched and flattened. As the vessel’s speed be- comes greater, the echo traces will become shorter and more arched. The reason for this change in appearance is that as the vessel speed increases fewer number of sound "pings" strike each fish. A low vessel speed will provide the most accurate information of where fish are located. The center of the sound beam is the most intense, then as you move out towards the sides of the sound beam there is a point where the intensity of the sound is 1/2 what it was in the center. The distance moved is the "beamwidth". See Figure 3 The beamwidth is related to the actual frequency and transducer. The CE32 MKII 200kHz will have a 15° beamwidth and the 50kHz ver- sion will have a 45° beamwidth.

Do not, however, mount the antenna in the top of a mast or tower, as this may de- grade the COG and SOG readings, especially if DGPS is used. Do not place the antenna close to sources of electrical interference, such as radar, satcom, etc. If installing the GPS antenna close to other antennas it must be placed either above or below the radiation beams. There is full coverage down to 20° below the horizon. 
 Avoid installing the GPS antenna inside the beam area. % 2

mally over the power supply voltage range from 10 to 32 Vdc. Connec- tion between the CE32 MKII and the external power supply ia accomplished by means of the supplied power cable, which is approxi- mately 1.5 meters long. After connecting the cable to the power source, push the plug as far as it will go into the receptacle marked ’PWR’ on the rear of the cabinet and turn the plug’s coupling ring clockwise until it makes a click. 5$

  The installation should be carefully planned in advance, keeping in mind the standard cable length of 10 meters (32feet) which will be connected to the transducer. In the event where the standard cable is not long enough, up to an additional 10 meters (32 feet) may be connected with- out affecting the performance of the transducer. The cable must be of the same type as the standard cable.

  The use of longer cable runs, while possible, always increases the likeli- hood of increased interference and decreased performance. Care must be taken when increasing the cable lengths to ensure that proper, adequate and consistent shielding is maintained, that cable of adequate cross sec- tion is used, and that all connections are properly made and protected from the effects of the marine environment. 5#

 The performance of the echosounder under actual operating conditions will be largely dependent upon the location of the transducer and how it has been installed. Careful consideration, therefore, must be given to se- lecting the mounting location and on deciding the method of installation that best suits the vessel. Air bubbles and turbulence caused by the vessel’s movement through the water will seriously degrade the transducer’s performance. Therefore the transducer should be located well clear of any water intake or discharge line and also clear of any projection along the hull line which might dis- turb the smooth flow of water. It is of profound importance for good per- formance that the water flowing over the transducer be free of bubbles and aeration. If the transducer face is clean but the performance degrades with increasing vessel speed, then aeration of the water flowing under the transducer may be the cause of the poor performance. Due to the varying design of ship’s hulls and different operating speeds, there can be great variation in the amount of air bubbles which are carried beneath the hull. The bubbles tend to be carried close to the hull as they pass aft.
    
 99

which holds the transducer away from the hull and which directs the flow of aerated water around the sides rather than over the face of the transducer. On deep keeled vessels, care must be taken to ensure that the transducer beam wil not be blocked by any part of the keel. Although the appropriate mounting location depends on the type of vessel and its nor- mal operating speeds, a practical choice is usually somewhere between one third and one half of the vessel’s water line length from the bow. Levelling blocks may be designed accordingly to meet this requirement.
The more the transducer protrudes from the hull, the better the results will be. Particularly the lower frequency operation, interference from pro- peller noise can be a significant problem. This can be seen as an increase in the ’noise’ on the echosounder display when the propeller speed is in- creased. To help reduce this, the transducer’s mounting face may be an- gled slightly forward on the order of 5° for the 50 kHz transducers and 3° for the 200 kHz transducers. The goal is to incline the transducer so that a line of sight along the transducer’s radiating surface passes below the propeller. $(..:$..
