3.1 Mounting the Hull Unit and Transceiver Unit

Location of hull unit
Determine the mounting location through consultation with the shipyard and shipowner. When
deciding the location, the following points should be taken into account.
• Select an area where propeller noise, cruising noise, air bubbles and interference from turbu-
lence are minimal. Generally, the point at 1/3 to 1/2 of the ship’s length from the bow on or
near the keel is optimum. On-the-keel installation is advantageous for minimizing oil con-
sumption in comparison with off-the-keel. If the hull unit can not be installed on the keel, the
center of the retraction tank should be within 600 mm of the keel to prevent a rolling effect.

Figure 3-1 Hull unit mounting location

• Select a place where the hull bottom is flat and the draft is sufficiently deep. Normally, the
transducer should protrude at least 500 mm beyond the keel to minimize the effect of air
foam and bubbles.
• Select a place where interference from other equipment is minimal. The hull unit should be
at least 2.5 m away from the transducers of other equipment.
• No obstacle should be in the fore direction since it causes a shadow zone and aerated water,
resulting in poor sonar performance.
• The space shown in the figure on the next page is required around the hull unit for wiring and
maintenance.
• If the ambient temperature of the unit is below 0°C, provide the sonar compartment with a
heater to keep the temperature above 0°C.

Shortening the retraction tank
The retraction tank is 900 mm in length when supplied. Shorten the tank as necessary so that the
transducer is placed well below the keel when it is lowered. The following table provides guide-
lines for shortening the tank. Refer also to the retraction tank installation drawing at the back of
this manual.

Figure 3-3 Guidelines for shortening the retraction tank

Note 1: In the 800 mm type hull unit, when 150 mm is removed and “D” is minimum, the effect
of air foam is minimized when the transducer is fully protruding in water.

Note 2: In the 1200 mm type hull unit, when 50 mm is removed and “D” is minimum, the effect
of air foam is minimized when the transducer is fully protruding in water.

Installing hull unit on retraction tank
After welding the retraction tank and allowing sufficient time for cooling, install the hull unit as
follows:

1. Clean the hull unit flange, the O-ring and O-ring groove and coat them with a slight amount
of grease. Place the O-ring in position on the tank flange.
2. Lay the gasket (1) on the top of the tank flange.
3. Orient the hull unit so that the bow mark (arrow) on its flange points toward the ship’s bow.
Note that heading adjustment in the display unit is required if the bow mark does not face
the ship’s bow.
4. 7 of the 16 bolt holes on the hull unit flange have already been fitted with bolts. Insert the
gasket (2) into the bolt holes of the tank flange to which these seven bolts are fitted. Note
that it is difficult to fit them after the hull unit has been placed on the tank.
5. Confirm that the O-ring and the gasket (1) are in position. Place the hull unit on the tank.
6. Coat every bolt, washer and nut with slight amount of grease to ease removal. Fit the insu-
lation gasket (2) into the bolt holes of both the tank and hull unit flanges. Fasten the hull unit
to the retraction tank with gasket (2), flat washers, spring washers and hex bolts.
7. Reinforce the hull unit against vibration by extending stays to the ship’s hull from the two
eye bolts at the top of the hull unit, referring to figure at the top of the next page.

Installing stays (anti-vibration
measure)
Install stays from the top of the hull unit to
the ship’s hull. The stays should be angle
iron with a size of 75 x 75 x 9 mm or more
and at least two pieces should be used; one
each to ship’s bow and stern directions. If
possible, install two more stays in ship’s
transverse direction.

Figure 3-5 Installation of stays

Do not install the stays as shown below. Vibration-resistance effect is reduced since vibration is
applied to the stays as rotation force. Install them horizontally.

Proper installation

Mounting the transceiver unit on the hull unit
Fasten the transceiver unit to the left side of the hull unit as shown below.

A transducer cable protection cover has been fitted where the transceiver unit is to be fastened
to the hull unit. Remove it when mounting the transceiver unit.

Injecting sonar oil into the soundome
Inject sonar oil (high voltage insulation oil) into the soundome of the hull unit after mounting
the hull unit. Four 4-liter cans are supplied as installation materials.

CAUTION
Keep oil away from eyes. Wear protec-
tive goggles when working with the oil.
The oil causes inflammation of the eyes.
Do not touch the oil. The oil can cause
inflammation of the skin. Wear protec-
tive gloves when working with the oil.
Do not ingest the oil. Diarrhea or vomit-
ing can result.
Keep the oil out of reach of children.

EMERGENCY
If the oil enters the eyes, flush with clean
water about 15 minutes. Consult a physi-
cian.
If oil contacts skin, wash with soap and
water.
If the oil is ingested, see a physician im-
medisately.

DISPOSAL OF OIL AND ITS CONTAINER

Dispose of oil and its container in accor-
dance with local regulations. For further
information, contact place of purchase.

STORAGE
Seal container to keep out foreign material.
Store in dark place.

1. Check to see that there are no obstacles beneath the hull unit. Using the hand crank, lower
the transducer completely.
2. Remove the two plugs on top of the soundome. Inject oil through a hole until the soundome
is filled. Screw plugs into holes and tape them.

Remove two plugs.

3.2 Mounting the Display Unit and Sub-display Unit
(Option)
The display unit is designed for tabletop mounting. Mount it in the steering house, considering
the following conditions:

• Place where operating personnel are able to control the unit easily while observing the fish-
ing ground or the area surrounding the vessel.
• Place at least 1 m away from a magnetic compass and equipment which has a magnet (radar
magnetron, loudspeaker, high power transformer, etc.).
• Place not exposed to direct sunlight, water splashes or hot
air.
• Place where maintenance and ventilation clearance shown
in the outline drawings is ensured.
• Place where the CRT face is within ±45° from vertical.

Mounting the display unit

1. Remove the mounting base by unscrewing the two bolts at
the front bottom. Save the bolts.
2. Fix the mounting base to the table by using M10 bolts, flat
washers, spring washers and nuts. It is recommended that
a rubber mat be placed under the mounting base to reduce
vibration.
3. Fasten the unit to the mounting base with two bolts re-
moved at step 1. When the space around the unit is limited,
make wirings to the display unit first and then fasten the
unit.

Figure 3-9 Mounting the display unit

3.3 Mounting the Interface Unit and Optional Units
Interface Unit
The interface Unit CS-120A connects with several navigation and fishing equipment, so deter-
mine its installation site with the wirings to them taken into account. In addition, the unit incor-
porates a data selector and self-check switch, so select a place where they can be easily operated.

FNZ joint box (option)

The FNZ joint box is used for interchanging both TX trigger and sonde marker pulses from the
echo sounder and the net sonde, therefore it should be installed as close to Net-sonde Indicator
as possible.

Remote display (option)

The remote display monitors sonar picture at a location remote from the display unit. Note the
maximum length of the cable between the display and remote display units is 30 m.

Figure 4-2 Crimping tool, contact pin, pin extractor

How to use the crimping tool

1. Strip the vinyl sheath of the wire to expose the core by 3.2
mm to 4 mm.
2. Hold the crimping tool horizontally and insert the contact
pin with its slit facing downward into the crimp hole on the
crimping tool.
3. Insert the wire onto the contact pin and squeeze the handle
until the ratchet releases. (Place wire deep enough into the
contact pin so that its end comes in contact with the stopper
plate of the crimping tool.) With crimping completed, pull
the wire while holding the contact pin to make sure that it is Figure 4-3
fastened tightly.

How to use the pin extractor

If a contact pin is inserted into an incorrect hole on the
connector body, remove it with the pin extractor.

4.5 Connection of Interface Unit CS-120A
With connection of a navigator and fishing equipment, the function of the CSH-73 is expanded
to include true motion presentation, target lock, echo sounder picture, FNZ marker presenta-
tion, and digital indication of nav data. This chapter provides the methods of interfacing the
CSH-73 sonar with other equipment and wiring details.

Connections for true motion and target lock

True motion and target lock require heading (digital) and speed (200 pulses/nm) data. Both data
are fed to the display unit via Interface Unit CS-120A.

Basically, there are two methods to feed the data:

• Heading data is fed to J205 from A/D Converter AD-100 and the speed data to J206 from an
electromagnetic speed log.
• Both heading and speed data are fed to J207 from the CIF line of the CI-30/50/60.

Select one of the methods depending on the equipment installed. When both methods are avail-
able, it is recommended to connect both and select one by the DIP switch inside the CS-120A.

7.2 Heading Adjustment on the Hull Unit and Display
Unit
Heading adjustment on the hull unit
When the arrow (bow mark) on the flange of the hull unit cannot be directed toward ship’s bow,
adjust the heading so an echo which is dead ahead appears dead ahead on the display unit.
Heading error less than 45˚ can be compensated at the display unit alone. For heading error
larger than 45˚ make initial compensation to the nearest increment of 45˚ at the hull unit and
then compensate the remaining error at the display unit.

Check if the hull unit heading agrees with the ship’s heading as follows;
1. If the transducer faces ship’s bow, only the train bearing display LED “27” (128) in the power
supply unit should light.

Note: “127” or “129” is also acceptable.

2. The train LEDs on the SET board (10P6201) in the transceiver unit should display “000”.
3. In addition, “RO 0” will be displayed at the upper right side on the screen.

Example 1: When heading is off 45˚ to starboard

1. Using the hand crank, rotate the train cam to align the red “45” on it with the “Center” arrow.
2. Unfasten the fixing screws for the connector fixing platform and align. Rotate connector
fixing platform to show red 45 mark. Fasten the fixing screws.
3. Loosen the two socket set screws fixing the train cam and align it so that the “0” mark on the
train cam is aligned with the “Center” arrow. Tighten socket set screws.
4. Loosen the three rotary encoder fixing screws and align the “white mark” with the red “45”
mark on the encoder bearing scale.
5. Perform fine adjustment of the rotary encoder so that only the “27” (128) LED in the train
bearing LEDs inside the power supply unit lights (see the preceding page). Fix the rotary
encoder.

Note: “127” or “129” is also acceptable.

6. Using the hand crank, rotate the transducer clockwise/counterclockwise until the CW/CCW
limit switches turn on. Confirm that there is no abnormal tension on the transducer cables.

41
Example 2: When heading is off 90˚ to port
1. Using the hand crank, rotate the train cam until the black “90” mark on it is aligned with the
“Center” arrow.
2. Loosen the fixing screws for the connector fixing platform. Rotate connector fixing platform
to show black 90 mark. Fix the connector fixing platform.
3. Loosen the two socket set screws fixing the train cam and align the train cam so that the “0”
mark on it is aligned with the “Center” arrow. Fix the train cam.
4. Loosen the three rotary encoder mounting screws and align the “white mark” with the black
“90” on the encoder bearing scale.
5. Perform fine adjustment of the rotary encoder so that only the “27” (128) in the train angle
LEDs in the power supply unit lights. See page 39. After checking, fix the rotary encoder.

Note: “127” or “126” is also acceptable.

6. Using the hand crank, rotate the transducer clockwise/counterclockwise until the CW/CCW
limit switches turn on. Confirm that there is no abnormal tension on the transducer cables.

Example 3: When heading is off 58˚ to starboard

1. Set the gear box to 45˚ starboard following the procedure in Example 1.
2. Correct the remaining 13˚ (58˚ - 45˚) on the display unit as shown on page 42.

Example 4: Changing heading that has already been adjusted

The adjustment is done by finding the difference between the preciously adjusted angle of the
train cam and the new angle to be set.

For example, to change the setting from 45˚ starboard to 90˚ starboard (90-45=45), rotate the
train cam with the hand crank by 45˚ counterclockwise; in other words, the red “45” on the
train cam should be aligned with the “Center” arrow. To change the setting from 45˚ starboard
to 90˚ port: (90+45=135), rotate the train cam so that the black “135” is aligned with the the
“Center” arrow. The connector fixing platform and rotary encoder bearing scales are adjusted
in the same way as in examples 1 and 2; to shift the scale by 90˚ to starboard, align the red “90”
with the “Center” arrow, and to shift it by 90˚ to port, align the black “90” with the “Center”
arrow.

42
Heading adjustment on the display unit
When the BOW mark on the flange of the hull unit cannot be directed toward ship’s bow adjust
the heading so an echo which is dead ahead appears dead ahead on the display.

1. Locate a target in the bow direction (buoy, for example) and display it on a near range. If the
target appears at 12 o’clock the heading alignment is correct. If it is not go to step 2.

If target's on-screen
Buoy position is right of ship's
bow, for example, hull unit
e heading is skewed to left.

ample, when the hull unit heading is off 5˚ to starboard, the picture is rotated 5˚ clockwise to
correct it. Because of this, the maximum training angle becomes 170˚ to starboard and 160˚ to
port.

GPS is 0.2 kts or less. If DR is not available when switched from GPS to
ON DR, heading readout is fixed at 0 degrees and ship's track is plotted by using
1

S1 the last GPS data obtained before switching to DR. If you still require speed,
S2 heading data from GPS even though ship's speed is less than 0.2 kts, set the
2

S3 GPS format to DR. Note however that the heading direction becomes erratic
3

S4 if the ship's speed is less than 0.2 kts.

Note 2: Use this setting when both DR and current indicator are available.

Normally DR data has highest priority, and is switched to current indicator

data if the DR data is absent for more than 61 seconds. The heading data for
the bearing scale is always provided from the current indicator. When DR

data is taken from GPS be sure to set GPS output format to "DR." GPS with
no "DR" output format cannot be used.

Depth (echo sounder, color video sounder, etc.)

Input Device S5 Note 1: For white line pulse when the

Echo Sounder (Note 1) OFF depth data is taken from an echo
sounder which does not have digital
GPS or DR (Note 2) ON
depth output.

Note 2: When the depth data is taken

from an echo sounder which has digital
echo output (FE-822, FCV, ED-202,
IF-3000, or IF-5000).

S02 MODE: Selects the signal mode (AC or DC)
according to the combined echo
AC DC sounder. Default setting is “AC”.
S01 FNZ MARKER: The FNZ marker is plotted on the echo sounder picture
when this switch is set to ON. Default setting is the "ON"
position.

Adjustment of signal level (potentiometer R36, R56)

Prior to adjustment, verify that the output level of the E/S Interface VI-1100A satisfies the
following ratings.

1) For AC INPUT 2) For DC INPUT

If not, adjust the potentiometers in the VI-1100A referring to the installation manual for the
FCV series.

Procedure

Turn the E/S GAIN and E/S OFFSET potentiometers (R56 and R36) so that the color gradation
of E/S picture on the screen appears similar to the intensity gradation of the combined E/S
echogram.
Case (A) The E/S picture on the CSH-73 is comparatively higher in sensitivity than that of
the paper echogram. Adjust the E/S OFFSET potentiometer so that weak signals
painted in blue or light blue is displayed in deep blue.
Case (B) The E/S picture on the CSH-73 is comparatively lower in sensitivity than that of the
paper echogram. Turn the E/S GAIN potentiometer clockwise until the picture is
even in quality.

Adjustment of white line inhibit time (potentiometer R27)

In case digital depth data is not combined with the CS-120A, the white line signal from the echo
sounder is used for depth information.

Potentiometer R27 cancels the white line pulse for about 10 ms after transmission to avoid false
depth indication caused by unwanted noise in short ranges.

No readjustment of R27 is required as long as the CSH-73 indicates the correct depth. If the
depth is wrong, turn R27 clockwise.

Adjustment of white line output level (potentiometer R55)

Improper setting of R55 causes the seabed line to be painted in deep blue due to the white line
pulse. Adjust R55 so that the seabed is painted in reddish brown.
