Setting the Echosounder Range
The range setting determines the depth shown on the display.
Auto
If you select Auto, the system will automatically display the whole range from the water
surface to the bottom.
Auto range will automatically be turned off once you adjust the range manually.
Manually changing the range
You can increase or decrease the range by pressing the zoom keys.
Pressing and holding one of the zoom keys will toggle between auto
and manual range. Autorange is resumed by pressing the “0” key.
When manually change the range the lower depth line will be moved upwards or
downwards. The upper depth line will always be at the water surface.
This options allows you to focus on echoes at the upper part of the water column.
The echosounder frequency
This Zeus unit supports several transducer frequencies. Available frequencies depend on
what transducer that is connected.
You can view two frequencies at the same time by setting up a echosounder split screen.
Selecting the ping speed
The Ping Speed controls the rate the transducer uses to send echosounder waves into
the water. A higher ping speed will yield the best results when you are moving across the
water at a high rate of speed or fishing from a dock. The reverberation of too much ping
speed can cause interference on the screen.
The fi sh echoes
You can select how you want the echoes to appear on the echosounder image.
