Welcome to SonarPhone
What is SonarPhone?
As the name implies, SonarPhone turns your smartphone or tablet
into a fully functional touch screen sonar system that will rival
the performance of sonar systems costing hundreds more. You don’t
need cell phone coverage to use it.
The SonarPhone Sonar Transmitter will work anywhere in the world.
The SonarPhone transmitter creates its own WiFi hotspot and you
can share its signal with as many people as you wish or password
protect it just for yourself.
The use of the SonarPhone App beyond DEMO mode requires a WiFi
connection to a SonarPhone SP100 or SP200/SP300 Sonar System. You
can either share an existing signal or purchase a Sonar System for
yourself.
SonarPhone Overview
This Depth Sounder Mobile Application is designed for amateur and
professional fishermen alike. It will allow you see fish, depth
and bottom contour of a body of water. This high performance sonar
system, when coupled with a SP100 or SP200/SP300, will rival the
performance of many high-cost stand-alone sonar systems.
Sonar technology is based on sound waves which are transmitted into
the water. The system uses sonar to locate and define structure,
bottom contour and composition, as well as depth directly below
the transducer.
When in the water, the transducer (SP100 or SP200/SP300) sends a
sound wave signal downward and determines distance by measuring
the time between the transmission of the sound wave and when the
sound wave is bounced off an object. Then it uses the reflected
signal to interpret depth and composition of an object or bottom
structure.

How to Connect to a SP100 or SP200/SP300
iOS Devices
1. Start the SonarPhone by powering up the SP200/SP300 or placing the SP100 into the
water. (Use a wet paper towel to power up the SP100 if at home)
2. Go to your iPhone or iPad's main "Settings" page .
3. Go to "WiFi". Your iPhone will search for new signals and should find the SP100
or SP200/SP300 signal.
4. Select the SP100 or SP200/SP300 that appears
5. If a master password is set for the SP100 or SP200/SP300, you will need to enter
this password to access the signal. Tap "Join" to connect.
6. Press your iPhone's home button, then located and tap the SonarPhone icon to start
the app.
7. (Optional) Tap “System Setup” to change the default SonarPhone username and
password. Note that if you change the default, you will need to exit SonarPhone,
return to step 2 and then re-select the SP100 or SP200/SP300.
8. (First Run Only) Tap "Master" and enter the default password (12345678) or the
new password you set up in the last step.
Setup is Complete. Tap "Connect Now" to begin using SonarPhone.
Android Devices
1. Start the SP-100 or SP-200/SP-300 by powering up the SP200/SP300 or placing the
SP100 into the water. (Use a wet paper towel to power up the SP100 if at home)
2. Go to “WiFi” setting and be sure it is “ON”. Your SonarPhone system is transmitting
and WiFi signal and you should see it on your WiFi networks listing.
3. Select the WiFi SonarPhone source you wish to use, at this point if several other
SonarPhone's are being used nearby, you will see them as well, but as you will
soon find, they are protected by a security code the primary operator of the system.
Ask them for the Security code so they can share their signal with you. If you
are using the system by yourself the WPA security code from the factory is 12345678.
4. DO NOT leave the WiFi settings screen until you see you are connected to the WiFi
channel you have selected.
5. Now that your WiFi is connected you can open the SonarPhone app.
6. It is CRITICAL at this point you DO NOT hit the option to CONNECT NOW when the
SonarPhone home page comes up. You must FIRST touch the MASTER button to establish
your device as the master. If you do not have a Master controlling the SonarPhone,
it will not allow you to connect.
7. When you Select Master, it will ask for password and it again is 12345678 then
hit enter.
8. Once WPA password is accepted you can leave your settings and enter the SonarPhone
App and hit the large "Connect Now" button. If this device has not been used before
with SonarPhone it will ask for the Master password. Which is the same factory
default password: 12345678 Note, once this set-up procedure is done for your
specific device, it will not ask you again to be the MASTER you are the MASTER
by Default.
9. Remember, your SonarPhone factory default is set to run in the “demo” mode, so
you will need to go to the menu key and turn off the demo to start seeing the actual
sonar signal from the SonarPhone transmitter.
IMPORTANT: WiFi signal range can be effected by many external
factors. While good conditions allow for a 300 foot (90 meters)
range, the actual distance you could experience may be plus or minus
20% of this distance. WiFi technology is greatly limited indoors
and is best to keep in line of site for best performance. If
mounting SP200/SP300, be sure to place it as high in the boat as
possible and never in a metal lined compartment which will really
shorten your transmit range.
Samsung Owners need to know “WiFi with internet connection” must
be turned off in your advanced WiFi settings to receive the WiFi
only signal from Sonarphone. If testing at home be sure you are
no longer connected to home WiFi as some devices will default back
to your home WiFi settings and not allow you to connect to
SonarPhone.
Sharing a SP100 or SP200/SP300 WiFi Signal
SonarPhone Master
The owner of the SP100 or SP200/SP300 is called the Master. Only
the Master can control the SP100 or SP200/SP300. The letter M will
appear on the touch control panel when you are the Master.
SonarPhone Slave
Friends who connect and share your SonarPhone signal are called
SLAVES. They can use and watch the SonarPhone display, but will
have limited control. The letter S will appear on the touch control
panel when you are the Slave.
Note a SLAVE setting will not be possible unless a MASTER is actually
running.
Sharing a SonarPhone signal with Friends is EASY! Just ask the owner
of the SonarPhone for their WPA password, so you can become a “SLAVE”
to the owner or Master controller of the SonarPhone.
Again you start in the “Settings” of you phone or tablet. Select
WiFi and see what WiFi channels are available. Highlight the
SonarPhone channel you wish to watch and select it and then add
the WPA password from the Master and when it has been accepted and
when you see you are connected to the WiFi channel you simply exit
the “SETTINGS” and enter SonarPhone. Hit connect now and you are
good to go!
Please realize only the Master controller has complete control of
all menu functions, so you will notice some menu features simply
will not function while you are a “SLAVE” to the Master of the
SonarPhone signal . There is no limit to the number of “Slaves”
you can have to a Master SonarPhone signal, but without a master
using the system, no slave function is available.
