Detecting Fish Schools Aurally

Occasionally you will be preoccupied with other tasks and un-
able to concentrate on watching the sonar picture. In such cases
you can use the audio function to aurally monitor fish echoes
through the built-in speaker.

1. Operate the trackball to move the trackball marker to the

direction you want to monitor through the speaker.

2. Press the R/B key. The bearing marker will appear in the

direction of the trackball mark and echoes in that direction
are monitored through the speaker. Adjust the volume with
the AUDIO control on the front panel.

3. To turn off the audio function, erase the bearing marker by

placing the trackball marker near own ship marker and press-
ing the R/B key.
