Abstract
Example systems and methods are provided herein for providing for a controlled shutdown of a marine electronic device. Such marine electronic devices include a main unit, a power input in connection with the main unit, and a secondary unit configured to store energy for processing sonar data. The power input is configured to provide energy to the main unit, and the secondary unit is connectable to the main unit to provide stored energy to the main unit. Also included is a processor configured to determine whether the power input is providing energy within a predetermined threshold to the main unit and then, in response to a determination that the power input is not providing energy within the predetermined threshold to the main unit, cause the secondary unit to provide the stored energy to the main unit.
