Configuring the Recording Interval of the Track Log

You can indicate the frequency at which the track plot is 

recorded. Recording more frequent plots is more accurate but 

fills the track log faster. The resolution interval is recommended 

for the most efficient use of memory.

Boundaries

Boundaries allow you to avoid or remain in designated areas in 

a body of water. You can set an alarm to alert you when you 

enter or exit a boundary.
You can create boundary areas, lines, and circles using the 

map. You can also convert saved tracks and routes into 

boundary lines. You can create a boundary area using 

waypoints by creating a route from the waypoints, and 

converting the route into a boundary line.
You can select a boundary to act as the active boundary. You 

can add the active boundary data to the data fields on the chart.

Sonar Fishfinder

When properly connected to a compatible transducer, your 

ECHOMAP Plus device can be used as a fishfinder.
For more information about which transducer is best for your 

needs, go to 

garmin.com/transducers

.

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 chartplotter. For example, 

you can view Garmin ClearVü

 sonar screens only if you have a 

compatible Garmin ClearVü transducer connected.
