Although the waterproof rating capacity of this
product meets the stated IPX standard (refer to the
product’s Technical Specication), water intrusion
and subsequent equipment failure may occur if the
product is subjected to commercial high-pressure
washing. Raymarine will not warrant products
subjected to high-pressure washing.
Disclaimers
This product (including the electronic charts) is
intended to be used only as an aid to navigation. It
is designed to facilitate use of ofcial government
charts, not replace them. Only ofcial government
charts and notices to mariners contain all the current
information needed for safe navigation, and the
captain is responsible for their prudent use. It is
the user’s responsibility to use ofcial government
charts, notices to mariners, caution and proper
navigational skill when operating this or any other
Raymarine product. This product supports electronic
charts provided by third party data suppliers which
may be embedded or stored on memory card. Use
of such charts is subject to the supplier’s End-User
Licence Agreement included in the documentation
for this product or supplied with the memory card
(as applicable).
Raymarine does not warrant that this product is
error-free or that it is compatible with products
manufactured by any person or entity other than
Raymarine.
This product uses digital chart data, and electronic
information from the Global Positioning System
(GPS) which may contain errors. Raymarine does
not warrant the accuracy of such information and
you are advised that errors in such information may
cause the product to malfunction. Raymarine is not
responsible for damages or injuries caused by your
use or inability to use the product, by the interaction
of the product with products manufactured by others,
or by errors in chart data or information utilized by
the product and supplied by third parties.
Memory cards and chart cards
MicroSD memory cards can be used to back up /
archive data (e.g. Waypoint, and Tracks). Once
data is backed up to a memory card old data can
be deleted from the system, creating capacity for
new data. The archived data can be retrieved at any
time. Chart cards provide additional or upgraded
cartography.
It is recommended that your data is backed up to a
memory card on a regular basis. Do NOT save data
to a memory card containing cartography.
Compatible cards
The following types of MicroSD cards are compatible
with your display:
• Micro Secure Digital Standard-Capacity
(MicroSDSC)
• Micro Secure Digital High-Capacity (MicroSDHC)

EMC installation guidelines
Raymarine equipment and accessories conform to
the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
regulations, to minimize electromagnetic interference
between equipment and minimize the effect such
interference could have on the performance of your
system
Correct installation is required to ensure that EMC
performance is not compromised.
8Dragony 6 / Dragony 7

Note: In areas of extreme EMC interference,
some slight interference may be noticed on the
product. Where this occurs the product and the
source of the interference should be separated by
a greater distance.
For optimum EMC performance we recommend
that wherever possible:
• Raymarine equipment and cables connected to
it are:
– At least 1 m (3 ft) from any equipment
transmitting or cables carrying radio signals e.g.
VHF radios, cables and antennas. In the case
of SSB radios, the distance should be increased
to 7 ft (2 m).
– More than 2 m (7 ft) from the path of a radar
beam. A radar beam can normally be assumed
to spread 20 degrees above and below the
radiating element.
• The product is supplied from a separate battery
from that used for engine start. This is important to
prevent erratic behavior and data loss which can
occur if the engine start does not have a separate
battery.
• Raymarine specied cables are used.
• Cables are not cut or extended, unless doing so is
detailed in the installation manual.
Note: Where constraints on the installation
prevent any of the above recommendations,
always ensure the maximum possible separation
between different items of electrical equipment, to
provide the best conditions for EMC performance
throughout the installation

2.2 Product overview
The unit connects directly to a Raymarine®
DownVision™transducer and a vessel’s power
supply.
Dragony®multifunction displays are standalone
Fishnder and Chartplotter combo displays.
The product includes the following features:
• Internal GPS receiver.
• Internal 2 Channel CHIRP sonar module:
–DownVision™— ultra high resolution channel
providing photo like clarity.
–CHIRP Sonar — high resolution sh targeting
channel.
• Raymarine’s LightHouse user interface.
• Tilt and swivel quick release base with optional
locking core.
• Surface mountable using the optional surface
mount adaptor kit.
CHIRP DownVision™overview
DownVision™produces a wide–angle side-to-side
beam and a thin fore-to-aft beam. The coverage of
the DownVision™beam is a water column directly
beneath and to the sides of the vessel.
DownVision™beam
DownVision™is effective at lower vessel speeds. In
deeper waters the CHIRP bandwidth is automatically
optimized to improve bottom lock and the detection of
moving objects (e.g. sh) in the wider water column.
The wide, thin beam produces clear target returns.
The use of CHIRP processing and a higher operating
frequency provide a more detailed image, making
it easier to identify bottom structures around which
sh may reside.

3.7 Selecting a location for the
transducer
This product is supplied with a transom mount
transducer. The guidelines below should be followed
when selecting a location for the transducer.
Note: The transducer is not suitable for mounting
on vessels where the transom is aft of the
propeller(s).
For best performance the transducer must be
installed in a location with the least turbulence and
aeration. The most effective way to determine this
is by checking the water ow around the transom
whilst underway.
• The transducer should be mounted close to
the keel (centreline) of the vessel, so that the
transducer remains fully submerged when the
vessel is turning.
• The transducer must be mounted a suitable
distance from the propeller(s) to avoid wake.
• For clockwise rotating propellers the transducer
should be mounted on the starboard side, for
anti-clockwise rotating propellers the transducer
should be mounted on the port side.
• On a twin engine vessel the transducer should be
mounted between the engines.
• Turbulence can also be caused by a number of
other factors such as steps, ribs, strakes, and
rows of rivets. The turbulence appears aft of these
locations.
