measured sideways. See Fig. 3-9. The units used here
are chosen using the entry for Depth Units in the System
Setup Menu. If you have selected feet (FT) or fathoms
(FA), the distance shown here will be measured in feet. If
you have selected meters (M), the distance shown here will
be in meters.
Fish indication An arch-shaped mark shows that the unit has detected a
fish. In general, a larger arch indicates a larger fish. If the
fish symbols are turned on, the unit will indicate fish using
these instead. A number beside each symbol shows the
distance from the boat to the fish. Remember that this
distance is measured
sideways. See Fig. 3-9. The units
used here are chosen using the entry for Depth Units in the
System Setup Menu. If you have selected feet (FT) or
fathoms (FA), the distance shown here will be measured in
feet. If you have selected meters (M), the distance shown
here will be in meters.
Bottom/Shore
Indication
This indicates the area where the transducer beam is start-
ing to see the bottom, shore, or some other object. Again,
remember that the beam is looking sideways, so this could
really represent the bank of a stream or the space under a
dock or pier.
Depth This is the depth directly below the boat. Even when the
Sidelooker feature is turned on, the downward-looking
transducer is still used to measure the depth.
The Sidelooker feature has settings for Range and Sensitivity which are
separate from the Range and Sensitivity settings used for the standard
FishFinder Page. See Section 4 for details.
