fre-

Using Bottom Lock
The scrolling bottom display provides a
top-down
view, referenced from the
surface of the water. Bottom Lock shows a water column of fixed height,
referenced from the bottom, that appears flat. It removes bottom detail to
provide an image of objects directly above the bottom and is useful when you
are looking for fish that feed close to the bottom.
You can select the Bottom Lock image to be vertically split with the scrolling
bottom display, or it can replace the scrolling bottom display.
As illustrated in
Figure 5-7
, the bottom is shown as a straight line. Note that
some bottom features may extend above this line. The actual depth reading is
given in the bottom left hand corner of the Bottom Lock display.
Range intervals on Bottom Lock are measured up from the bottom (rather than
down from the surface). Thus, the bottom is shown as zero and the top number
indicates the maximum distance above the bottom being displayed. You can
adjust the Bottom Lock range.
If the A-Scope or Zoom image was displayed, selecting Bottom Lock
automatically switches
OFF
A-Scope and Zoom.
If you have split frequency selected, the Bottom Lock image is displayed in
both frequency windows.
If Target Depth ID is
ON
(see
Target Depth ID
on
page 4-14
), the target depth
is displayed as distance from the bottom.

display in the right hand window.
