2.9.4 Connection to Squid Fishing Gear
Depth of sea bottom or at cursor position can be output to the squid fishing gear. Switch-
ing between the sea bottom depth and the cursor position depth is done from the squid
fishing gear.
This function is not available for a squid fishing gear that does not accept
signal in the NMEA0183 format. Contact our Marketing people for the fol-
lowing software that can establish connection between such machine:
SE50/SE60 from Sanmei Marine Co. designed for a squid fishing
gear requiring software replacement.
When three or more outputs are read in parallel, you need to connect the buffer (separately
available NQA-602DC).
When generating output of the cursor position water depth, select “Display” of the cursor.
(1) Connecting procedure: See Figure 2.4
Connect the J907 ③ (OUT) to “NMEA +in” of the NMEA input from the external
equipment.
Then, connect the J907 ④ (GND) to “NMEA -in” of the NMEA input from the external
equipment.
(2) Setup procedure
Select “DISPLAY SETTING” from the main menu, then select “Display” for the cursor
from sub-menu “VRM” (the system is initially set to “Display”). For the operation, see
page 28 in the Instruction Manual.
● Be sure to select “Display” for the cursor display. If you turn on
the function when “Off” is selected, improper data can be gener-
● Bubbles or thick plankton layer in the upper surface can prevent
determining state of sea bottom. In such case, the cursor posi-
tion depth data shall be used.
● Prior to the connection, you must confirm the squid fishing gear
maker if the sensor can be connected to it.
