DownScan Operation | 

Elite X series

Frequency

Controls the transducer frequency 

used by the unit.  800 kHz offers the 

best resolution, while 455 kHz has greater depth 

penetration. 

NOTE:

 

When using a custom range, 

you may not receive any digital depth 

readings, or you may receive incorrect 

depth information. 

Ping Speed

Controls the rate the transducer uses to send sonar 

waves into the water. Ping speed adjustments can 

help reduce interference from other transducers. 

DownScan options

Noise Rejection

Uses advanced signal processing to monitor the ef-

fects noise (boat pumps, water conditions, engine 

ignition systems, etc.) has on your display, and then 

filters out undesired signals.
