4. Hold the transducer and bracket assembly against the transom. The transducer should be roughly parallel to the ground. The bottom of the transducer bracket should be in line with the bottom of the hull. Don't let the bracket extend below the hull! Mark the center of the slots for the mounting holes. Drill two 5/32" holes in the marked locations for the #10 screws supplied with the transducer.

5. Remove the transducer from the bracket and re-assemble it with the cable passing through the bracket over the bolt as shown above. Attach the transducer to the transom. Slide the transducer up or down until its aligned properly on the transom as shown above. Tighten the brackets mounting screws. Adjust the transducer so that its parallel to the ground and tighten the lock nut until it touches the flat washer, then add 1/4 turn. Dont over tighten the lock nut! If you do, the transducer wont kick-up if it strikes an object in the water. 6. Route the transducer cable to the sonar unit. Make certain to leave some slack inthe cable at the transducer as shown above. If possible, route the transducer cable away from other wiring on the boat. Electrical noise from the engines wiring, bilge pumps, VHF radio wires and cables, and aerators can be picked up by the sonar. Use caution when routing the transducer cable around these wires. IMPORTANT! Clamp the transducer cable to the transom close to the transducer. This can prevent the transducer from entering the boat if it is knocked off at high speed. 7. Make a test run to determine the results. If the bottom is lost at high speed, or if noise appears on the display, try sliding the transducer bracket down. This puts the transducer deeper into the water, hopefully below the turbulence causing the noise. Don't allow the transducer bracket to go below the bottom of the hull!

TROLLING MOTOR BRACKET INSTALLATION (StrataView Only) 1. Attach the TMB-S bracket to the transducer as shown below using the hardware supplied with the transducer. (Note: The internal tooth washer is supplied with the TMB-S.)

2. Slide the adjustable strap supplied with the TMB-S through the slot in the transducer bracket and wrap it around the trolling motor. Position the transducer to aim straight down when the motor is in the water. Tighten the strap securely. Route the transducer cable alongside the trolling motor shaft. Use plastic ties (not included) to attach the transducer cable to the trolling motor shaft. Make certain there is enough slack in the cable for the motor to turn freely. Route the cable to the sonar unit and the transducer is ready for use.

SHOOT-THRU-HULL

(Strata 128 and Strata 128 Plus Only) The transducer installation inside a fiberglass hull must be in an area that does not have air bubbles in the resin or separated fiberglass layers. The sonar signal must pass through solid fiberglass. A successful transducer installation can be made on hulls with flotation materials (such as plywood, balsa wood, or foam) between layers of fiberglass if the material is removed from the chosen area. For example, some manufacturers use a layer of fiberglass, then a core of balsa wood, finishing with an outer layer of fiberglass. Removing the inner layer of fiberglass and the balsa wood core exposes the outer layer of fiberglass. The transducer can then be epoxied directly to the outer layer of fiberglass. After the epoxy cures, the hull is watertight and structurally sound. Remember, the sonar signal must pass through solid fiberglass. Any air bubbles in the fiberglass or the epoxy will reduce or eliminate the sonar signals. To choose the proper location for thru-hull mounting, anchor the boat in 60 feet of water. Add a little water to the sump of the boat. Plug the

transducer into the sonar unit, turn it on, then hold the transducer over the side of the boat. Adjust the sensitivity and range controls until a second bottom echo is seen on the display. (you will need to turn both automatic and ASP off.) Dont touch the controls once theyve been set. Next, take the transducer out of the water and place it in the water in the sump of the boat. Observe the sonar signal to see if there is a noticeable decrease in sensitivity. The second bottom signal may disappear and the bottom signal may decrease in intensity. Move the transducer around to find the best location. If the sensitivity control has to be increased greatly to compensate, then the transducer should be mounted on the outside of the hull. If not, then mark the location that shot through the hull the best and follow the instructions on the next pages for a shoot-thru-hull mounting.

(Strata 128 and Strata 128 Plus Only) 1. Make certain the area is clean, dry, and free of oil or grease, then sand both the inside surface of the hull and the face of the transducer with 100 grit sandpaper. The surface of the hull must be flat so the entire transducer face is in contact with the hull prior to bonding.

SPREAD EPOXY HERE

SAND THIS SURFACE
2. Follow the instructions on the epoxy package and mix it thoroughly. Do not mix it too fast, as it will cause bubbles to form in the epoxy. (NOTE! Use only the epoxies specified on the inside front cover of this manual! Failure to use one of these epoxies may result in poor sonar performance!) Apply a small amount on the face of the transducer as shown above, then spread a small amount onto the sanded area on the
hull. Place the transducer into the epoxy, twisting and turning it to force any air bubbles out from under the transducer face. The face of the transducer should be parallel with the hull, with a minimum amount of epoxy between the hull and transducer. After the epoxy dries, route the cable to the sonar unit.

Fish Arches

If you do not get good fish arches on your display, it could be the transducer is not parallel with the ground when the boat is at rest in the water, or at slow trolling speeds. If the arch slopes up, but not back down, then the front of the transducer is too high and needs to be lowered. If only the back half the the arch is printed, then the nose of the transducer is angled too far down and needs to be raised.

POWER CONNECTIONS - Permanent mount units only This unit works from a 12 volt DC system only. For the best results, run the power cable directly to the boats battery. Keep the power cable away from other boat wiring, especially the engines wires. This will give the best isolation from electrical noise. If the supplied cable is not long enough to reach the battery, splice #18 gauge insulated wire to it. You can attach the power cable to an accessory or power buss, however, you may have problems with electrical interference. Make certain to attach the in-line fuse holder to the positive lead as close to the battery or terminal strip as possible. This will protect both the unit and the power cable in the event of a short. Use a 3-amp fuse. WARNING! Do not use this product without a 3-amp fuse wired into the power cable! Failure to use a 3-amp fuse will void your warranty! This unit has reverse polarity protection. No damage will occur if the power wires are reversed. However, the unit will not work until the wires are attached correctly.

Bracket Installation - Permanent mount units only You can install the sonar unit on the top of a dash or from an overhead with the supplied bracket. It can also be installed in the dash with an optional IDA-3 mounting kit. If you use the supplied bracket, you may be interested in the optional GBSA-1 swivel bracket kit. This converts the unit's gimbal bracket to a swivel mount which can be used on the dash or overhead mounting positions. Installation instructions for the in-dash and swivel mounting kits are supplied with the adapter kits. Mount the unit in any convenient location, provided there is clearance when its tilted for the best viewing angle. Holes in the brackets base allow wood screw or through bolt mounting. It may be necessary to place a piece of plywood on the back side of thin panels to reinforce the panel. Make certain there is enough room behind the unit to attach the power and transducer cables. Drill a hole in the dash for the power and transducer cables. The best location for this hole is immediately under the gimbal bracket. This way, the bracket covers the hole. The smallest hole the power and transducer cable connectors can pass through is 5/8". After drilling the hole, pass the power/ transducer connector up through the hole from under the dash. Slide the bracket over the hole, then route the cables out the slot in the back of the bracket. Finally, fasten the bracket to the dash.

STRATA 128 PORTABLE ASSEMBLY INSTALLING THE BATTERIES Release the latch on the front of the battery case. Open the compartment and install four "D" cell batteries into the adapter. For the longest life, we recommend you use alkaline batteries. This battery case will also hold one rechargable battery instead of the "D" cells. See the enclosed coupon for more information on the rechargable battery.
"D" CELL BATTERY
After installing the batteries, close the case and plug the power cable on the battery case into the Strata 128 Portable. Turn the sonar unit on. If it doesn't work, make certain the battery terminals are making good contact against the battery contacts. Also check the wiring connections on the Dcell battery adapter. The red wire on the power cable should be attached to the red wire on the D-cell battery adapter and the power cable's black wire should be connected to the black wire on the D-cell battery adapter. If it still doesn't work, check the battery voltage. Most of the complaints we

receive about portable units result from stale batteries. Make certain the ones you buy are fresh. Always remove batteries from the battery compartment before storing the unit as dead batteries can leak and corrode the contacts. In cold weather the efficiency of dry cell batteries drops with the temperature. We find it a good idea to have the sonar unit good and warm along with the batteries before we leave home. If the batteries do lose a charge, you can sometimes restore them by placing them in a warm room or car interior. A better way is to replace them with batteries that have been kept warm. Don't ever heat the batteries over an open flame or direct hot air onto them. A fire or explosion could result.
PORTABLE TRANSDUCER ASSEMBLY Assemble the transducer and bracket as shown below. Attach the transducer to the bracket with the supplied hardware. Make certain there is one washer on each side of the transducer, inside the bracket. Slide the other washer over the end of the bolt and thread the nut onto it. Screw the suction cup onto the bracket using the supplied screw and flat washer. Tie the nylon cord through the hole in the top of the bracket. When using this transducer, tie the other end of the nylon cord to the boat. This will help prevent the loss of the transducer if it comes off the boat.

Clean the chosen area of the hull before attaching the suction cup. Locate the transducer on the hull as shown below. Don't allow the bracket to go below the hull, as water pressure against it can cause the suction cup to come off at speed. Moisten the cup, then press it onto the hull as firmly as possible. Tie the nylon cord to the boat and route the transducer cable to the sonar unit. Plug the transducer connector into the unit and your portable sonar is now ready for use.
SPEED/TEMPERATURE SENSORS The Strata Plus and StrataView can use up to three temperature sensors which can monitor surface water, live well, air, and virtually any other temperature. You do need to be careful when purchasing the temperature sensors, however. Each temperature sensor has its own "address". The sensors are labeled "Water", "T-2" (or Temp-2), and "T-3" (or Temp-3). If you want two (or more) temperature readings, you'll need to use the proper sensors. For example, you can't use two T-3 sensors. The sensors that will fit these units are: TS-1BK TS-2BK TS-3BK TS-12BK ST-TBK One sensor for "Water" temperature display. One sensor for "T-2" temperature display. One sensor for "T-3" temperature display. Two sensors for "Water" and "T-2" temperature displays. One speed sensor and one temperature sensor for "Speed" and "Water" displays. (comes with Strata Plus)

You can combine these sensors in many combinations. See the list on the following page for temperature and speed sensor combinations.

Sensor Chart

(Note: Do not use these sensors in any other combination.) ST-TBK = 1 speed sensor and 1 temperature display ST-T BK + TS-2BK = 2 temp sensors and one speed sensor ST-TBK + TS-2BK + TS-3BK = 3 temp sensors and one speed sensor TS-1BK = 1 temperature sensor TS-12BK = 2 temperature sensors or TS-1BK + TS-2BK = 2 temperature sensors TS-12BK + TS-3BK = 3 temperature sensors or TS-1BK + TS-2BK +TS-3BK = 3 temperature sensors

KEYBOARD BASICS The unit sounds a tone when you press any key. This tells you the unit has accepted a command. PWR/CLEAR Use this key to turn the unit on. It also clears menu selections and the menus from the screen. This key also turns the unit off. NOTE: You must hold the OFF key down for a few seconds in order to turn the unit OFF. MENU FWD / MENU REV These sonar units have many features that are accessed with the menu keys. The MENU FWD key moves forward through the menus, the MENU REV key moves backward. To see the first menu, simply press either MENU key. To see the other menus, press a MENU key repeatedly. UP and DOWN ARROWS Use these keys to adjust virtually every feature and function on the unit. NOTE: The up arrow key also stops the chart when no menus are displayed. In other words, anytime you wish to stop the chart, first make certain no menu is on the screen. Now press the up arrow key. The chart freezes and the word STOP appears at the top of the screen. To start the chart, press the up arrow key again or the PWR/CLEAR key. DISPLAY - General The lights flash for about ten seconds when the unit is turned on. Two menus appear, one after the other. The menus are the lights (BACK LIGHT) and a feet-meter selection (FEET/METER). To turn the lights on, press the up arrow key. To switch from feet to meters, press the down arrow key when the proper menu appears. The menus disappear after a few seconds. If you dont want to wait, press the PWR key to clear the menus from the screen. When the sonar unit is first turned on, the display appears similar to the one at right. The unit is in the automatic mode and the Fish ID feature is on. The depth range shows on the left side of the screen. On the screen at right, the range is from 0 to 60 feet and the bottom depth is 48.6 feet.

OPERATION MENUS This unit uses menus to guide you through the units functions and features. The menu key accesses these features, allowing you to customize the unit to your particular needs and water conditions. All you have to do to leave one menu and enter another is press the menu key repeatedly. If you ever get lost in the menus, simply press the PWR key. This clears the menus from the screen. Menus change depending on the mode the unit is in. For example, if the automatic mode is turned off, the sensitivity menu changes from AUTO SENS to MAN SENS. Other messages may appear in menu boxes or new menus can appear, again depending on previous selections. AUTOMATIC When the unit is first turned on, the automatic feature is enabled. This feature automatically adjusts the units range and sensitivity according to water conditions. It always keeps the bottom displayed in the lower portion of the screen. To turn the automatic feature off, press the menu key until the AUTO/MAN menu appears. Now press the down arrow key. This highlights the letters MAN. The unit is now in the manual mode. Wait a few seconds and the menu will scroll off the screens left side. Pressing the PWR key also clears it. To turn the automatic feature on again, repeat the above steps, except this time press the up arrow key. RANGE You cant adjust the range when the unit is in the automatic mode. It is adjustable when the unit is in the manual mode, however. To do so, first put the unit in the manual mode. Now press the PWR key to clear the screen. Then press the menu key until the RANGE SEL menu appears as shown at the top of the next page. The current range shows at the bottom of the menu. In this case, the range is 60 feet. Now press the up arrow key to decrease the range, the down arrow key increases the range.
After you select the desired range, press the PWR key to clear the display. If you wait a few seconds, it will automatically clear. This unit has the following ranges: 10, 20, 40, 60, 120, 240, 480, and 900 feet. and 5, 10, 20, 40, 60, 100, 200, and 300 meters.
ZOOM The zoom feature enlarges all echoes on the screen. If the unit is in the automatic mode, it tracks the bottom signal, always keeping it near the bottom of the screen. This lets you see small detail, at the same time enlarging all echoes that appear on the screen. The unit doesnt track the bottom in the manual mode, and the adjustments are slightly different. Zoom - Automatic Operation To zoom the display, first press the MENU key until the RANGE/ZOOM menu appears as shown at right. Now press the down arrow key. This switches the unit into the zoom mode. A new menu immediately appears as shown below. This is the zoom size menu. Zoom size is the distance between the upper limit and the lower limit. The upper limit shows at the top left corner of the screen. The lower limit is in the bottom left corner. For example, if the upper limit is 40 feet and the lower limit is 70 feet, the zoom window size is 30 feet. The word TRACK appears in this menu when you first activate the zoom as shown at right.

This means the unit is tracking the bottom in a zoom window, always keeping it on the display. Press the up arrow key to decrease the zoom size, press the down arrow key to increase the zoom size. When the unit is switched into the zoom mode, the letters ZM appear at the top of the screen. The zoom window size displays in the top right corner of the screen. On the screen shown above, the zoom size has been changed to 20 feet. To turn the zoom feature off, press the menu key until the RANGE/ZOOM menu appears. Now press the up arrow key. This switches the unit into the range mode, which turns the zoom feature off. This unit has the following zoom ranges: 10, 20, 30, 60, 120, 240, and 480 feet and 5, 10, 20, 30, 50, 100, and 150 meters. Zoom - Manual Operation To operate the zoom feature when the unit is in the manual mode, first press the menu key. Then press the down arrow key in the RANGE/ZOOM menu to place the unit in the zoom mode. The zoom size menu automatically appears next. You can change the zoom size by pressing the up or down arrows. After you select the desired zoom size, press the menu key until the MOVE ZOOM menu appears. This menu lets you move the zoom window up or down in one foot increments by pressing the arrow keys. Thus, you can move the zoom window up towards the surface, down to the bottom, or anywhere in between. The window stays where you put it. It doesnt track the bottom signal. To turn the zoom feature off, press the menu key until the RANGE/ZOOM menu appears. Now press the up arrow key. This switches the unit into the range mode, which turns the zoom feature off.
SENSITIVITY The sensitivity menu lets you control the units ability to pick up echoes. A low sensitivity level excludes much of the bottom information, fish signals, and other detail. High sensitivity settings lets you see features, but it can also clutter the screen with noise and other unwanted signals. Typically, the best sensitivity level shows a good, solid bottom signal with grayline. This sonar unit adjusts the sensitivity level to keep a solid bottom signal on the screen. It adds a little extra when its in the automatic mode. This gives it the capability to show fish and other detail. However, situations occur where it becomes necessary to increase or decrease the sensitivity level. Typically, this occurs when you wish to see more detail, so you need to increase the sensitivity. The procedure to adjust it is the same whether the unit is in the automatic or manual mode. To change the sensitivity level, first press the menu key until the sensitivity menu appears. If the unit is in automatic, the menu shows AUTO SENS. Otherwise, the menu shows MAN SENS. Now press the up arrow key to increase the sensitivity, the down arrow to decrease it. The percentage of sensitivity in use shows in this menu. Echoes scrolling onto the screen will also show the effects of the sensitivity change. If you reach the maximum or minimum sensitivity level, a tone sounds alerting you to the limits. After youve adjusted the unit to the desired sensitivity level, press the PWR key to clear the display. If you wait a few seconds, it will automatically clear.

TARGETTRACK (StrataView Only) The StrataView has the unique capability to "see" targets not only straight down, but also to the right and left, thanks to the BroadView transducer. This transducer has three elements: left, right, and down. The StrataView uses all three elements to display targets between the surface and the bottom. Targets are shown as Fish ID symbols. This feature also shows the depth of the target directly above the fish symbol. In the screen shown at right, there is one symbol from the right element at 22 feet, one from the left element at 29 feet, and one from the center element at 16 feet. The TargetTrack feature identifies fish symbols coming from the right element with a "R" in front of the symbol's depth. A "L" identifies symbols from the left element. No letter identifies fish symbols from the center element. The bottom signal and the
digital depth display are read from the center element only. To turn the TargetTrack feature off, simply press the MENU key until its menu appears as shown at right, then press the down arrow key.
CHART SPEED The rate echoes scroll across the screen is called the chart speed. Its adjustable by pressing the menu key until the chart speed menu appears. Chart speed is set to maximum when the unit is first turned on. To decrease it, press the down arrow key. Press the up arrow key to increase the speed again. The percent numbers in the Chart Speed menu box shows the speed. Echoes scrolling onto the screen will also show the effects of the change. If you reach the maximum or minimum level, an warning tone sounds. To stop the chart, first clear any menu from the screen by pressing the PWR key. You cant stop the chart while a menu is displayed. Now press the up arrow key. The chart freezes and the word STOP appears at the top right portion of the screen. To start the chart, press the up arrow key again.
DISPLAY MODE The Strata 128 has three different screen modes. The Strata 128 Plus and Strataview both have eight modes. To change modes, press the MENU key until the DISP MODE (Display Mode) menu appears. Then press the up or down arrow keys until the desired mode number appears. The modes are as follows:

To do this, press a MENU key until the "TEMP PROBE" menu appears as shown at right. Now press the up or down arrow keys until the desired probe appears. Press the PWR key to erase the menu.

ALARMS FISH ALARM The Fish Alarm sounds a tone when a fish symbol appears on the screen. To use the fish alarm, press the menu key until the FISH ALARM menu appears on the screen. Now press the up arrow key to turn the alarm on. Repeat the above steps to turn the fish alarm off.
DEPTH ALARMS The depth alarms are triggered only by the bottom signal. No other echoes will activate these alarms. The depth alarms consist of a shallow and deep alarm. The shallow alarm sounds an alarm tone when the bottom goes shallower than the alarms setting. The deep alarm sounds a tone when the bottom goes deeper than its setting. Both alarms adjust the same, although through different menus. Shallow Alarm To set the shallow alarm, press the menu key repeatedly until the SHAL ALARM menu appears. Press the down arrow key to increase the shallow alarm's depth setting, the up arrow key decreases it. The number in the shallow alarms menu box shows the current shallow alarm setting. When the number reaches the desired setting, release the arrow key. When the bottom depth goes shallower than the alarms setting an alarm tone sounds. At the same time the alarm sounds, a message box appears on the screen as shown at right. Press the up arrow key to silence the alarm. This will turn the alarm sound off until the shallow alarm is triggered again. To turn the alarm off, press the menu key until the shallow alarm menu appears. Then press the up arrow key until the word OFF appears.
Deep Alarm The deep alarm adjusts the same as the shallow alarm. Use the DEEP ALARM menu to adjust the deep alarm. When the bottom signal goes deeper than the setting, an alarm tone sounds. LIGHTS The display is backlighted for night use. To turn the backlights on or off, press the menu key repeatedly until the BACK LIGHT menu appears. Now press the up arrow to turn the lights on or the down arrow to turn them off.
FEET/METER This unit can show the depth in feet or meters. When it is in the metric mode, all depth readings, ranges, zooms, and alarm settings are in meters. When it's in the feet mode, all of the above settings are in feet. To change from feet to meters or vice-versa, press the menu key until the FEET/METER menu appears. Press the down arrow key to switch to metric, the up arrow to switch to feet. Displays show in feet when the unit is first turned on. The menu will clear automatically after a few seconds or you can press the PWR key to clear the screen.
