SURFACE CLUTTER Algae, plankton, air bubbles, boat wakes, and schools of bait fish near the surface of the water can create large surface echoes on the paper.
the sonar can separate two tar- gets that are 11/2 inches apart. This is considered good resolution. However, if a sonar' pulse length was 500 micro-seconds, then the sonar could only separate targets that are at least 12 inches apart.
INTRODUCTION The Lowrance X-16 is a highly sophisticated recording depth sounder Thanks to a micro-com- puter, the X-16 can do more than any other sonar unit in its price range plus many that cost much more.
be used to help alleviate this condition. LORAN-C INTERFACE A remarkable advantage of the X-16 is its ability to print Loran-C coordinates in either Time Differen- ces (ID's) or Latitude and Longi- tude. (NOTE: The X-16 has been designed to use only the Lowrance Loran-C receiver.
cable in the event a short occurs. Crimp connectors are supplied to attach the fuse holder to the power cable. The red wire in the power cable is the positive con- ductor The black wire is the ground or negative conductor. The graph is protected from accidental polarity reversals and no damage will occur if the wires are reversed.
keyboard the initial pulse length desired and then press the PULSE key. For example, to set the initial transmit pulse length to 1 00 micro- seconds, press 1 - 0 - 0 - PULSE. This will override the micro-com- puter's selection and set the initial transmitter pulse length to 100 micro-seconds.
Recording individual fish with an "arched" signature can usually be accomplished at trolling speed with the Sensitivity knob at the ¾ point, or higher. Refer to the section 'Arched Signatures" for more information about this impor- tant function of the recorder.
selected, the transmit pulse length would be: 525 + 200 = 725 micro-seconds. We added the ini- tial transmit pulse of 525 micro- seconds which is listed in the initial transmit pulse chart, to 200 micro-seconds, which is Sup- pressor level 3, according to the Discrimination - Suppressor chart.
used to outline the bottom contour which might otherwise be hidden beneath trees and brush; it can also give clues to the composition of the bottom. A hard bottom returns a very strong signal caus- ing a wide gray line. A soft, muddy or weedy bottom returns a weaker signal which is emphasized with a narrow gray line.

washed periodically with mild soapy water to remove any accu- mulated road grime or oily film. This is essential to have good contact between the transducer and the water. Periodically, the rubber roller on the paper drive should be cleaned with a cloth dampened with alco- hol to improve the friction on the metering roller drive.
place near the top of the chart paper. A zero adjust control has been placed on the back inside wall of the X-1 6 near the upper left hand corner so that the zero line position may be adjusted on the paper. Open the case front and look for the decal marked "ZERO ADJUST".
10. Push the transport assembly back to its operating position. Be sure it engages the catch inside the case. 11. Close the front of the case. Latch both catches on the top. 12. Turn the unit on. Move the Chart Speed knob fully clock- wise. Watch the paper long enough to be sure it is moving smoothly and evenly across the platen.
Special Note: The stylus may be damaged if the transport assembly is pulled down unless the stylus has been moved to the back side of the platen. 4. Pull out and down on the tab at the top center of the platen assembly to expose the paper spools. (See Figure 26).
