ZOOM
—The ZOOM button allows you to select the upper range of the
portion of the water column you would like to zoom in on. The actual size of the Zoom window
can be adjusted in the Main Menu.
The Zoom feature allows you to focus the display on a specific depth within the water column,
and can be a great benefit in a variety of fishing situations. See the separate ZOOM section
below for more info on the ZOOM. Whenever you are utilizing the zoom menu, keep in mind
that the menu will “time-out” after 10 seconds.
CONE ANGLE
- All transducers send down a signal that is shaped somewhat like a cone. Your
LX-9 easily switches from a 20 degree cone angle (good for general use) to a narrow 8 degree
cone angle (good for water over 40’, or any time you need a more precise view of what is below
you) . A feature unique to the MarCum Digital Sonars is the “Sonar Footprint” that displays
the actual extent of coverage by your transducer while you are fishing. See the special section on
Cone Angles below for more info.
TARGET ADJUST –
This feature allows the angler to change the size of the signals being
displayed without increasing the sensitivity. Depending on the angler’s preference, the signal
size can be easily changed from a razor thin line to a thicker band. The TARGET ADJUST
feature will give you the thinnest, smallest, signal size at “0”, and the signals displayed will get
thicker as you increase the TARGET ADJUST. This feature should be used in conjunction with
the SENS to fine-tune your display. Anglers who have a hard time seeing, as well as those who
fish from a standing position, will really appreciate the “TARGET ADJUST” feature.
