AQUAMAP™ 10x2/12x2 SERIES
Sonar Fishfinder
When properly connected to a transducer, your compatible AQUAMAP can
be used as a fishfinder. AQUAMAP models without an xsv or xs in their
names require a Garmin sounder module and transducer to display sonar
information.
For more information about which transducer is best for your needs, go to
.
Different sonar views can help you view the fish in the area. The sonar views
available vary depending on the type of transducer and sounder module
connected to the AQUAMAP. For example, you can view certain Panoptix
sonar screens only if you have a compatible Panoptix transducer connected.
There are four basic styles of sonar views available: a full- screen view,
a split-screen view that combines two or more views, a split-zoom view,
and a split-frequency view that displays two different frequencies. You can
customize the settings for each view in the screen. For example, if you are
viewing the split-frequency view, you can separately adjust the gain for each
frequency.
If you do not see an arrangement of sonar views to suit your needs, you can
create a custom combination screen.
Traditional Sonar View
There are several full-screen views available, depending on the equipment
connected.
The full-screen Traditional sonar view show a large image of the sonar
readings from a transducer. The range scale along the right side of the screen
shows the depth of detected objects as the screen scrolls from the right to the
left.

Split-Zoom Sonar View
The split-zoom sonar view shows a full-view graph of sonar readings, and a
magnified portion of that graph, on the same screen.
Split-Frequency Sonar View
In the split-frequency sonar view, one side of the screen shows a full-view
graph of high frequency sonar data, and the other side of the screen shows a
full-view graph of lower frequency sonar data.
NOTE:
The split-frequency sonar view requires the use of a dual-frequency
transducer.
