Range Modes

window. Auto is the default and continually adjusts the screen display to show
the maximum amount of data possible, while always showing the bottom; manu-
al allows you to adjust the sonar display’s depth with the the R keypad; window
lets you establish a starting depth (top) and length (span) for the sonar display.
