The
new Speed-N-Temp™ Monitor from Cannon® has its own monitor
for use with any downrigger on the market. Simply attach this informative
accessory to any manual or electric downrigger and unlock the mysterious
secrets of dark and deep trolling waters. The sealed underwater
transmitter attaches to the cable of any downrigger just above the
weight. The sensors on the Speed-N-Temp Monitor register the absolute
depth of the lure and the lure¹s true speed as well as light
intensity and water temperature at the lure's trolling location.
These readings are then electronically transmitted up through the
downrigger cable and digitally displayed on the Speed-N-Temp Monitor.
Absolute depth of lure eliminates blow-back estimations and calculations
that anglers normally must decipher. While the boat may be traveling
at 2.5 mph, the lure may travel at different speeds depending on
underwater currents.
With the Speed-N-Temp Monitor, true lure speed in tenths of mph
can be adjusted by the angler providing optimum strike stimulation.
A chartreuse and blue lure looks great in the sunlight but at a
depth of 80 feet with filtered light the lure may look invisible
to the fish. Speed-N-Temp Monitor measures light intensity and the
appropriate lure color can be selected for the conditions at the
trolling depth. Water temperature at the lure¹s depth is provided,
crucial for tracking temperature sensitive fish. Using a standard
cable, the Speed-N-Temp Monitor operates up to a maximum depth of
100 feet. A coated cable increases operation depth up to 300 feet.
Speed-N-Temp activates when the speed wheel enters the water and
automatically shuts off after 15 minutes of inactivity. A replaceable
9-volt battery powers the transmitter for up to 200 hours of operation.
Battery voltage is also digitally displayed on monitor screen.
The use of Cannon¹s Speed-N-Temp Monitor will not interfere
with downrigger features such as Short Stop, Positive Ion Control
and Stacker Releases. The 7.2 square inch screen, with 2,300 pixels
per square inch, provides an easy-to-read display of the transmitted
information. Overall, the saltwater protected monitor measures 5
inches by 5.3 inches by 2.5 inches and can be easily mounted at
any location on the boat. For the look of factory rigging, use the
optional installation bracket and mount the monitor in the dash
of the console. |
