Configuring the Multifunctional Sonar Unit
This Multifunction Sonar has multiple modes for utilizing the same sonar unit on various pieces of
Belanger equipment. The modes are switched by holding a magnet up to the designated location of
the sonar unit until it switches into the corresponding mode. The LED on the sonar will flash a pulse
pattern count that represents the mode that it’s in.
The modes are as follows:
MODE 1: Vector® Length (frequency)
MODE 2: Vector® Width (frequency)
MODE 3: FreeStyler® (frequency)
MODE 4: Saber™
MODE 5: Vector® Length (digital)
MODE 6: Vector® width (digital)

The frequency modes output changes in frequency corresponding to measured distance from the
face of the sonar. Digital modes turn on output when the floor is detected.

Changing the Parameters
Holding the magnet to the sonar will cause it to cycle through the different modes. When the LED
pattern indicates the mode you’re seeking, remove the magnet. The sonar may take a few seconds
to start switching modes. If it does not cycle through modes, confirm that the magnet is up against
round portion of sonar near the base as shown below.

If this is the case, try moving to each side of LED as shown below.

Your Vector® or FreeStyler® may have shipped with a different model of sonar. This multifunction
sonar can be used as a replacement once mode is set correctly. Vector® prior to 2009 use modes 5
and 6. The LED will flash a pulse count identifying the mode that it is in. the model number for the
Multifunction Sonar Unit is IRU2005R. The Belanger part number is 1ELECT-SN950.
