HOW THE 900 SERIES™ WORKS
Sonar technology is based on sound waves. The 900 Series™ Fishing System uses
sonar to locate and define structure, bottom contour and composition, as well as
depth directly below the transducer. Your 900 Series™ Fishing System sends a sound
wave signal and determines distance by measuring the time between the
transmission of the sound wave and when the sound wave is reflected off of an object;
it then uses the reflected signal to interpret location, size, and composition of an
object. Sonar is very fast. A sound wave can travel from the surface to a depth of 240
ft (70 m) and back again in less than ¼ of a second. It is unlikely that your boat can
"outrun" this sonar signal.
SINGLE BEAM SONAR
Your 900 Series™ 937c Combo and 931c use a 200 kHz single
beam sonar system with a 20° area of coverage. Depth
capability is affected by such factors as boat speed, wave
action, bottom hardness, water conditions and transducer
installation.
NOTE: The 937c Combo and 931c models use single beam transducers, but may be upgraded
to dual beam functionality with the purchase and installation of a dual beam transducer.

NOTE: Your Single frequency (937c Combo or 931c model) 900 Series™ unit was shipped
from the factory with a Dual frequency software configuration. Before trying to operate
your unit, you will need to set your 900 Series™ to Single Beam in order for it to work
properly. See Sonar Menu Tab: Transducer Select for more information.
DUALBEAM PLUS™ SONAR
Your 900 Series™ 937c DF Combo and 931c DF are shipped
with a 200/50 kHz DualBeam PLUS™ sonar system with a
wide (74°) area of coverage. DualBeam PLUS™ sonar returns
can be blended together, viewed separately or compared
side-by-side. DualBeam PLUS™ is ideal for a wide range of
conditions -- from shallow to very deep water, in both fresh
and salt water. Depth capability is affected by such factors as
boat speed, wave action, bottom hardness, water conditions
and transducer installation.
