Bottom discrimination display
The bottom discrimination display analyzes the seabed echo to categorize seabed
hardness in one of four types (rocks, gravel, sand, mud) and shows the results in a
colorful graphic display. A transducer that supports bottom discrimination is required.
See the installation manual for a full list of transducers which can be connected to your
GP-1x71F. CHIRP transducers are NOT compatible with the Bottom Discrimination
feature.
There are two bottom discrimination displays: graphic and probability.
