Whiteline—controls how the unit shows information

about the bottom type (hard or soft). With the

Whiteline Off, the bottom return shows as red and

contains no information on bottom hardness. With

Whiteline set at Normal or 1-100%, the bottom return

becomes white with a red line indicating where the

water meets the bottom. To turn the Whiteline Off,

press the ROCKER down until the setting bar is all

the way at the bottom of the range and reads Off. See

page 91

for more detail on this feature.

Frequency—allows you to choose a transducer

frequency. Frequency refers to the pitch of the sound

that the transducer sends and receives. You can

choose 200kHz, 50kHz, or Dual frequency.

Depth Line—adds a horizontal depth

line across the screen that is used to measure the

depth of underwater objects. The depth of the

line appears in a box on the right side of the line.

Press up or down on the ROCKER to control the

position of the line on the graph. The depth shows

in a window on the right side of the line. To turn the

Depth Line Off, press the ROCKER up until the

setting bar is all the way at the top of the range and

reads Off.

Noise Reject—helps filter unwanted noise from

the graph. The Noise Reject tool can be turned

Off, set to Normal (automatically adjusts for

optimum viewing), or to a fixed 1-100% setting.

When setting the Noise Reject tool: the HIGHER

the noise rejection setting, the less likely the unit

is to NOT show fish or structure. To turn the

Noise Reject Off, press the

ROCKER down until

the setting bar is all the way at the bottom of the

range and reads Off.

Scroll—adjusts the rate that the graph scrolls from

right to left. If you are sitting still or the graph is

moving too fast, slowing the scroll rate or pausing it

can be beneficial.
