transducer is added or the original transducer is replaced for one of a different frequency.
If a 2nd transducer is added at a later date, parameters must be entered in the channel 2 sub-
menu. The parameters for channel 1 must not be altered. ( See installation instruction
UN 52 590 4001 for the integration of the second channel).
If the original transducer is replaced and the replacement is fitted at a different location, the
parameters must be altered accordingly.

This adjust feature allows the authorised service person to alter the transmit power according to
cable length on bord.
5.2 CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The LAZ 5100 Navigation Echo Sounder is largely maintenance free. The transducer(s) should be
cleaned whenever an opportunity arises, e.g. when the ship is in dock. The Transducer(s) can be
cleaned using a plastic scraper or scrubbing brush, see note below.
NOTE: Never use metal scrapers or wire brushes to clean the transducer(s). Never
paint the radiating surface of the transducer(s).
