During the program initialisation, a dialog appears to let you choose from the
current user settings available on the ES70.
The dialog is only visible a few seconds. You do not need to make a choice here.
You can select user setting at any time by means of the

When the ES70 starts, it is very important that it detects the bottom correctly. In
most cases this will take place automatically. However, we have experienced that
large schools of fish or difficult bottom conditions have deceived the ES70 to display
the wrong depth. In these cases the sounder may display the bottom at 0,0 meters.
In order to aid the ES70 to locate the correct depth, observe the dedicated procedure.
