Introduction
The D60 is a compact digital depth gauge. The D60
uses Digital Signal Processing (DSP) to reliably
display water depth from 1.2 foot (0.3 Metre) to
1000 feet (365 Metres). Depth can be displayed in
feet, metres or fathoms. Variable display damping
is provided.
The D60 has programmable shallow, deep and anchor
drag alarms built-in and can display the depth in feet,
metres or fathoms. A keel offset from -20.0 to +20.0
feet can be entered so the D60 shows the depth below
the surface, below the keel or below the transducer.

Setting Display Damping
While viewing Depth press and hold the sand t
keys keys for ten (10) seconds until you hear a long
beep. The display damping value is shown. Use the
sand tkeys to change the value and press the :
key to save your entry. A larger value of damping
will slow down the flickering of the displayed digits
but result in a slower response to depth changes.
The display damping limits are 5 to 20 with 10
being the default value.

SettingKeel Offset
While viewing Depth, press the tand :keys for ten
(10) second until you hear a long beep. The keel
offset will be displayed. Use the sand tkeys to
change the value and press the :key to save your
entry. The keel offset will be added to the displayed
value of the depth. A negative keel offset is used to
enable the D60 to display depth below the keel or
transducer. A positive keel offset enables you to
display actual water depth when the transducer is
placed below the surface level by up to 20 feet.

Installation
Before starting the installation, please read this
entire section first. Be sure to install the bulkhead
gasket before you install the instrument. Finger
tighten the screws that mount the instrument bracket
- do not use tools.
Page 12
Setting Anchor Drag Alarm
After anchoring, set the shallow alarm a few feet
more shallow than the actual displayed depth. Simi-
larly set the deep alarm a few feet deeper than the
actual displayed depth. Make allowances for local
tidal changes to prevent false alarms.
Turning the Alarms ON/OFF
While viewing Depth, press the s key for 1/2
second to turn the alarms ON, or the tkey for 1/2
second to disable the alarms.
Selecting Feet/Metres/Fathoms
While viewing Depth or Fish display quick press
both the tand skeys simultaneously. Each time
you do this, the units will switch from Feet to Metres
to Fathoms to Feet, etc. The alarm values and keel
offset will also change automatically to reflect the
new units.

MountingandWiring
l Drill a 2-1/8" (55mm) hole where you want to
mount the instrument (Fig. 1).
lBring the transducer/power cable out of the mount-
ing hole and plug the connector onto the instrument
circuit board as shown in figure 2 (page 7). It is
difficult but possible to plug the connector back-
wards if forced - observe polarity. Use a 5 amp fuse
on the power line as shown in Fig 2.
l Carefully check all your wiring against those
shown in figure 2. If everything is wired correctly
you can mount the D60 in the instrument hole. Be sure
the bulkhead gasket is in place and use only finger
tension to tighten the bracket hold-down nuts Do not
overtighten the bracket or you may damage the case
- do not use tools to tighten the nuts.
Operation
Key Functions
The keys are used to set
backlight levels, select Feet/Metres/Fathoms, and to
adjust keel offset and alarm depths. After changes
are made, the new information is automatically saved
to memory.
Backlight Intensity
Press the :key for 1/2 second to adjust the
backlight level for nighttime viewing. Each time you
pressthe "+" key thebacklight level will change:1, 2, 3,
4, OFF, 1, 2, ... etc.
SettingShallow and DeepAlarms
While viewing Depth, press the tkey for 10 seconds
to view/set the deep alarm. You will hear a long beep
and the deep alarm value is displayed. Use the sand
tkeys to change the value and press the :key to
save your entry.
To view/set the shallow alarm, press the skey for 10
seconds to view/set the shallow alarm. You will hear
a long beep and the shallow alarm value is displayed.
Use the sand tkeys to change the value and press
the :key to save your entry.
Mounting the Transducer
The instruction for mounting the transducer are pro-
videdseparatelywith the transducer anddependsupon
the type of transducer you selected. The RED wire
should be connected to +12VDC. The BLACK wire
connects to power ground. The combination trans-
ducer/powerconnector is keyedwith a ridge thatlocks
thefemaleconnectorinplace. Itisdifficultbutpossible
to force the connector onto the matching male plug
backwards. Be careful to plug in the connector as
shown on page 7 or you will damage the electronics.
