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
.
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.
