AERATION
Bubbles are created under the keel and the sea bottom due
to hard use of rudder, heavy pitching when lightly loaded,
breaking water over shoals or rough weather.
The bubble will absorb the sound energy and no marking will
be seen on the E/S or there will be under reading of depth.
No remedy available, except that these is a temporary
condition and will get corrected quickly.
The stylus rotates at such a speed the time taken for the
stylus to travel from top to bottom is twice the distance of
the range selected.
If the stylus rotates at a different speed (due to voltage
fluctuation or sticky tape), the depth recorded will be
different.
Adjustment is made as per instructions given in the manual.
