Range—adjust the range of the depth scale on the right side of the screen

(auto, or to adjust manually, Manual Range).
gain—controls the sensitivity of the sonar receiver (auto, or to adjust

manually, Manual). To see more detail, increase the gain. If the screen is

cluttered, decrease the gain.
frequency—when using a dual frequency transducer, select how the

frequencies appear on-screen (200kHz, 50kHz, dual, or auto).
Zoom—zoom in to a section of the full screen. The zoom is off, or set to No

Zoom by default. Four options are available:
No Zoom—turns zooming off.
auto 2x Zoom—twice the magnification.
auto 4x Zoom—four times the magnification.
Manual Zoom—set the depth range of the magnified area manually. Select

depth and then use the Rocker > Select to set the depth range of the

magnified area. Select Level and then use the Rocker > Select to increase

or decrease the magnification of the magnified area.

bottom Lock—locks the zoom window to the bottom.
Split Zoom—displays the Split Zoom screen (

page 55

).

Noise Reject (available only when gain is set to Manual)—reduces on-screen

visual clutter (usually from electrical sources) on the screen. Select the top

slider bar to manually adjust the value of noise rejection. Manually adjusting

the amount of noise that is rejected helps fine-tune the sonar to show the most

detail with the least noise.
When frequency is set to dual (and gain is set to Manual), you can

individually adjust noise rejection for each frequency.
