Collecting Depth Data

But the code is very simple, just like using the sensor in air: Send a pulse by pulling the signal pin HIGH, measure the time until the echo pin goes HIGH, and then divide the time in microseconds by 13.477 (for water) to get the distance in cm.
Your fishfinder looks very much like mine, but it seems you will have to cut the cable if you want to use the transducer with Arduino. But you can just get a normal waterproof sensor for the Arduino which seems to work just like the fishfinders transducer so far (at least to me after the tests I did).

Thanks. Just ordered a couple of JSN-SR04T which will hopefully be good enough to be useful.
