Chart Speed

Chart Speed determines the speed at which the

sonar information moves across the display, and consequently the amount of
detail shown.

A faster speed shows more information and is preferred by most anglers;
however, the sonar information moves across the display quickly. A slower speed
keeps the information on the display longer, but the bottom and fish details
become compressed and may be difficult to interpret. Regardless of the Chart
Speed setting, the RTS Window™ will update at the maximum rate possible for
the depth conditions. Adjust Chart Speed to your personal preference.

To adjust the Chart Speed:

1. Highlight Chart Speed on the Sonar X-Press™ Menu.

2. Press the RIGHT or LEFT Cursor keys to increase or decrease the Chart

Speed setting. (1-9, Ultra, where 1 = Slow, 9 = Fast, Ultra = Fastest,
Default = 5)

Zoom Level

(Sonar Zoom View only)

Zoom Level sets the magnification level for the Sonar Zoom View. Use Zoom to
see more detail in the bottom sonar returns that might be displayed close
together, such as those caused by fish suspended close to the bottom or within
structure.

Zoom Level is only available on the X-Press™ Menu from the Sonar Zoom View.
The Zoom Preview Box shows the section of the bottom that will be magnified.

NOTE: The Zoom Preview Box tracks the bottom and cannot be moved.

To adjust the Zoom Level:

1. Press the VIEW key until you see Sonar Zoom View on the display. Then

press the MENU key once to access the Sonar X-Press™ Menu.

2. Highlight Zoom Level on the Sonar X-Press™ Menu.

3. Press the LEFT or RIGHT Cursor keys to change the Zoom Level. (2x, 4x,

6x, 8x, Default = 2x)
