Simrad S5100

Simrads beste ekkolodd ble nettopp fornyet. BSM-3 (som igjen var svært lik forgjengeren BSM-2) er blitt erstattet med S5100. Denne gangen er endringen kontra forgjengeren merkbar.
Simrad S5100


Umiddelbart er den største endringen at modulen har tre helt uavhengige ekkoloddkanaler. Med andre ord kan du koble til ekkoloddgivere som total dekker hele frekvensbåndet fra 28 til 250 Hz, med effekt tilpasset ekkoloddgivere fra 300W til 3000W. Dette betyr at man kan bruke High, Medium og Low samtidig, forutsatt at man har ekkoloddgivere til dette. Men kansje vel så relevant er at man kan ha en giver med dobbeltbånds chirp (feks TM265HL) og en enkeltbåndsgiver (feks TM185M) tilkoblet samtidig og så velge den kanalen man ønsker å bruke avhengig av dybden man skal fiske på.


Uavhengige ekkoloddkanaler betyr også mulighet for ulike innstillinger av den enkelte kanal, og ikke minst gir det mulighet for bildefremrulling uten forsinkelser fordi en kanal skal fyre av flere ekkoloddgivere i rekkefølge.


På tilkoblingssiden bruker S5100 tre sorte 9-pins porter for tilkobling av ekkoloddgivere. Den har bare en ethernetport. Her kunne jeg gjerne sett at modulen hadde tre ethernetporter, siden dette forenkler innstallasjon i båter med mer enn en skjerm. (Slik som, kremt, min båt.)


S5100 er offesielt kompatibel med alle Simrads moderne skjermer, Det vil si NSS Evo3, NSS Evo2, NSO og S2009/S2016.

Norske priser er ikke klare enda, men i USA ligger S5100 på 2000 USD så forvent norsk pris rundt 20-25.000,- Antatt levering fra mai 2017.

The perfect settings for Lowrance? A guide on how to set up your 2D-sonar part I.

Perhaps the most repeated question in Facebookgroups and forums regarding marine electronics: "What are the best settings?" The bad news is that there is no uniform answer to that. The good news is that you can adjust settings according to conditions if you have a little knowledge as to what settings you should tweak and why. Here is part 1 of our guide to get the most out of your unit in regards to settings.

What is the difference between HDS Carbon and HDS Live?

Here we go again, a new generation of the Lowrance HDS. And with that Facebook and the different forums are flooded with questions referring to the difference between the new and the old. So what is the difference between Lowrance HDS Live and HDS Carbon?

Lowrance Elite Ti2 versus Elite FS

  When Lowrance launches a new mid-range unit, it is a big deal. Forums and Facebookgroups light up with questions on the new stuff, differences towards the old stuff and questions on compatibility. As usual, we in Team Colibri will try our best to sort that out, both on a technical level and with a more practical in-your-boat approach.

What is the difference between Lowrance HDS Live and Elite Ti2?

Lowrance as a brand of marine electronis is well known to all anglers, but the differences within their range of different models seem to cause quite a few questions out there. Here we will try to outline the difference between Lowrance HDS Live (top end) and Lowrance Elite Ti2 (middle range). Lowrance Elite Ti2 vs Lowrance HDS Live (photo; lowrance.com) As usual, we will start with the tech and then try to translate those technical aspects to practical differences while out on the water. Hardware - housing, screen and connections. The screen and housing on Elite Ti2 is the same as on the previous Elite Ti, and again more or less the same as on HDS Gen 2 Touch. (The memorycard-door and mounting-bracket is different from HDS Gen 2 Touch.) This is by no means new stuff, and compared to the more advanced housing and screen on HDS Live, Elite Ti2 is starting to show its relative age. However, with that in mind it is worth noting that when looking at the competition, several of

Lowrance Hook 2 versus Lowrance Hook Reveal

You have to hand it to Lowrance when it comes to the name of their new entry-level line of sonar and chartplotters. We all want to hook up, and what better way to do that then by having our marine electronics reveal to us where the fish are?
