INTRODUCTION The Z-9500 represents one of the best values in sportfishing sonar today. It rivals other combination sonar/loran units costing much more in features and performance. The 2-9500 offers easy-to-use operation at the touch of a button. The wide screen shows the underwater worki with high resolution and detail.
The power cable has three wires; red, white, and black. Red is the positive lead, black is negative or ground. Attach the in-line fuse holder to the red lead as close to the power source as possible. For example, if you have to extend the power cable to the battery or power buss, attach the fuse holder to the battery or power buss.
No other adjustments are required once the cable is connected. The Z- 9500 automatically sends NMEA information out the white wire once it acquires and "locks on" to the stations. TRANSDUCER CONNECTIONS The Z-9500 has dual frequency capability.
Noise typically shows on the sonar display. If interference begins at slow boat speeds and gets worse as the speed increases, then the probable cause is acoustic noise or cavitation. This noise is not electri- cal, but is caused by air bubbles passing over the face of the trans- ducer.
KEYBOARD The keyboard has keys arranged in two vertical columns. The keys in the left column are used for loran selections. The keys in the right column pertain to the basic sonar functions. The MENU key in the bottom right corner of the keyboard activates the first menu page.
PLOT - This enables the Iorans plotter function. WAYPOINT SAVE - This feature gives you more waypoint saving options. WAYPOINT RECALL - This key is used to recall waypoints from memory.
When the Z-9500 is first turned on, the display will appear similar to the one on the previous page. The digital bottom depth is displayed in the upper left corner of the screen. The word "AUTO" in the upper center of the display indicates the sonar's automatic feature is on.
The sensitivity menu has up and down arrows, plus a vertical bar graph. The graph gives a visual indication of the sensitivity level. A number beneath the down arrow also shows the sensitivity level. There are 32 steps of sensitivity. To increase the sensitivity level, press the key adjacent to the menu's up arrow on the left side of the unit.

CHART FREQUENCY The Z-9500 operates from 50 or 192 kHz, either independently or simultaneously. The sonar unit comes with a 192 kHz transducer, other optional transducers are available. See the transducer diagram on page 3 for single or dual transducer connections.
The frequency in use will also be displayed at the bottom of the screen. NOTE: The 192 kHz frequency for both the chart and digital sonar is enabled when the Z-9500 is turned on for the first time. For more information about the digital sonar frequency, please read the "Digital Sonar section.

DIGITAL DISPLAYS The Z-9500 can display the depth, speed, surface water temperature, distance log, and loran position data on the upper left portion of the screen. (Requires optional ST-T speed/temperature sensor.) When it's first turned on, only depth displays.
DIGITAL DEPTH DISPLAY When the Z-9500 is turned on for the first time, the digital depth display is located at the top left corner of the screen. This display comes from a separate digital sonar built into the Z-9500. It displays only the bottom depth.

The 2-9500 lets you measure the water depth from the surface to the bottom with the Positive Keel Offset feature. It works by adding the depth of the transducer to the bottom depth.
ASE Correction Loran signals are affected by the terrain they travel over. Plains, lakes, mountains, and cities affect the signal and they each affect it in different ways. This effect is called the additional secondary phase factor, or ASF. It's usually factored in when a loran chart is made.
DIGITAL SONAR FREQUENCY SELECT The Z-9500's digital has the capability of using the 192 kHz or 50 kHz frequency. Please note that the frequcency used by the digital can be different than that used by the chart. Changing the digital's frequency doesn't affect the chart's frequency at all.
LORAN ALARMS SiFT AUTOJ 0 The Z-9500 has two loran alarms. One is an arrival alarm that sounds 50kHz Digital 50KHZ when you come within a preset distance to a waypoint. The other is a Sonar 12 C.D.l. alarm that sounds when you move off course more than the alarm's set point.

HOW LORAN-C WORKS The Loran system consists of three to six transmitter stations. These are called a "chain." The letter "M" designates the master station inside the chain. The other stations in the chain are the secondaries. Their names are V, W, X, Y, and Z, although not all chains have five second- ary stations.
Saving Present Position as a Waypoint (Save As #) To save your present position using this feature, first press the Waypoint Save key. The menu shown below appears.

This menu displays the current plot radius (The distance from the center to the outer edge of the circle.) To change the plotters radius, simply press the key adjacent to the up or down arrow in the "PLOT RADIUS" menu.
CHANGE GRI Use this function if you don't know your position. You will need to know both the proper SRI and stations to use. The Z-9500 will calculate your present position using the chain you select. See the charts in the back of this manual for the proper chain and stations to use in your area.
This screen shows all navigation information to a waypoint in digital numbers. To display this screen, press the MENU key while the Z-9500 is in the loran mode. Now press the key adjacent to the "Nay. Display" label. The following screen appears.
SELECT BOTH INITIAL POSITION AND CR1 As described earlier, using both the position and GAl can help the Z- 9500 find and lock onto the loran stations faster. This should allow it to display a position quicker. However, the unit may switch from automatic to manual if a non-preferred GRI is selected.
STEERING DISPLAY - FULL DATA MODE To determine if you need to select stations, watch the indicator in the The steer indicator display shows steering, cross track error, distance and bearing to a waypoint. A waypoint must be saved and recalled to use this display.
