The unit remembers Fish ID setting when powered off.
Numeral Size
Numeral Size is the next Option menu. Two options are available: “Big” and “Small”. The factory
setting is Big. With this setting, the digital depth and speed and temp numerals are drawn large
enough to be readable from across the boat. The big numerals occupy space on the display
which could be used for the graphics area. Hence, the small numerals option. With small
numerals selected, a greater amount of the display area is available for the graphic view. This
effectively increases the display resolution of the unit. Sonar targets which are very close together
can often be displayed as separate targets, through the distance from which the numerals are
readable is somewhat less.
Use the UP and DOWN ARROW buttons to highlight the desired selection, then press MENU to
advance to the next menu.
Numeral Size settings are remembered when powered off.
Transducer
The transducer option controls how the Wide Portrait determines which transducer is connected
to the unit.
The Wide Portrait can identify and operate with several different transducers. At power up, the
Wide Portrait will first identify if a transducer is connected. If none is detected, the unit will default
to simulator mode. If the standard Tribeam Transducer is detected, the unit will begin normal
“down” operation. If a transducer other than a Tribeam is detected. The Wide Portrait will assume
this is a Wide Side transducer (see Using Alternative Transducers) and begin operation in Wide
Side mode.
The Transducer Option menu has four settings: Auto, Tri-Beam, Side< and Dual. The factory
setting is Auto, in which case the Wide Portrait uses the transducer detection capability to choose
the transducer, as described. To override this capability, select the setting that corresponds to the
transducer that is physically attached to the unit. Using this option to choose a transducer
manually forces the Wide Portrait to use the screen display appropriate to the specified
transducer, regardless of what kind of transducer it detects.
