The active target transducer has 3 elements or surfaces. The one that is flush or parallel with the housing is that used for both downscan mode and scout mode? The angled elements I assume are for the forward mode, so which one do you use and what happens to the other one? Does the module determine which elements turn on based on some algorithm?
Each of the three surfaces contain 140 elements, in total there are 420 elements (channels) in the transducer.
All elements are always used. It's performing a signal processing algorithm called beam forming to scan the coverage area of the transducer.
I didn't realize that all three surface are used in every configuration. So the module "stitches" the data from the three surfaces into one image on the MFDOriginally Posted by Scuirus
