1 General Information
Note: Please familiarize yourself with the entire manual and transducer installation guide before attempting installation.
1.1 Introduction
The DS35 is a high-quality digital depth sounder. Features include: · Depth readings from 3 to 200 feet with the added capability of displaying depth in meters or fathoms. · Adjustable depth alarms to alert the user visually and audibly when the water depth is less than the shallow and greater than the deep alarm settings. · The alarm settings are stored in memory and are preserved when power is off. · Display damping is selectable for frequent readings at critical shallow depths and for smoother readings at greater depths. · Trend arrows on the display indicate increasing or decreasing depth. · The DS35 will withstand direct water spray on its front panel without damage. Note: Actual depth capabilities depend on transducer used, transducer installation, bottom conditions and water conditions.
1.2 Front Panel
The display is a back-lit 3½ digit liquid crystal display (LCD) with an alarm icon (bell), trend arrows, and alpha flags. It also has a three-button keypad. The keypad uses tactile and audible feedback to indicate when a key is pressed. All functions are controlled entirely by these three keys.
Note: an ON/OFF switch must be installed to control the power to the instrument.
1.3 Rear Panel
The rear panel contains a cable terminated with an RCA phono receptacle for connection to the transducer and a 3.5ft. 12 VDC power cable with insulated stripped and tinned red and black wires.
