Indications on the normal sounder display


Note:

The water temperature graph can be

turned on or off. (See TEMP GRAPH
on page 11-4.) The temperature scale
is fixed between 20-80°F (0 to 30°C).


The normal sounder display shows either the
50 kHz picture or 200 kHz picture. To switch
between these pictures, do the following:

1. Press the [SNDR] key several times to

show the normal sounder display.

50 kHz picture

The sounder uses ultrasonic pulses to detect
bottom conditions. The lower the frequency
of the pulse, the wider the detection area.
Therefore, the 50 kHz frequency is useful for
general detection and judging bottom
condition.

200 kHz picture

The higher the frequency of the ultrasonic
pulse the better the resolution. Therefore,
the 200 kHz frequency is ideal for detailed
observation of fish school.
