Range Modes
The sounder features three depth range modes: auto, manual, and window.
Auto
is the default setting and continually adjusts the screen display to show the
maximum amount of detail possible, while always showing the bottom;
manual
allows you to adjust the sonar display’s depth using the
R
keypad;
window
lets
you establish a starting depth (top) and length (span) for the sonar display.

R
keypad is used to switch between manual and auto modes. Window
mode, however, can only be turned on from the sounder options menu (see page

right corner of the page. Press
T
to confirm.
