Power on/off
Use the following procedures to switch the EQ60 echo sounder
on and off.
Power on
It is assumed that the echo sounder’s hardware and software are
properly installed and configured.
1 Switch power on.
2 Observe the hardware test messages and operating system
start-up messages.
- It takes a couple of minutes before the echo sounder
window appears on the display.

following dialogue boxes:
