Echosounder

8.

The Echosounder function provides a view of the water and bottom beneath your vessel,

allowing you to detect fish and examine the structure of the sea floor.

The Echosounder Image

The echosounder displays the water column moving from right to left on the panel.

You can select between single panel view and several split views as described later in

this chapter.

* Optional echosounder image items

You turn the optional echosounder images on/off individually.

Pausing the Sounder Image

It is possible to turn OFF the sounder transmission from the Zeus unit. When the

echosounder is connected and configured the sounder information will be transferred to

the Zeus system as long as the echosounder is running.

You can freeze the sounder image, allowing you to examine the sounder echoes.

This function is useful when you need to position a waypoint exactly on the echosounder

panel, and if you are using the cursor to measure a distance between 2 elements on the

image.

When the image is paused the echosounder will continue to run and the depth indication

on the panel will be updated.
