Lower Range
Lower Range
sets the deepest depth range that will be
displayed. Automatic is the default setting. When in automatic mode, the lower range will be
adjusted by the unit to follow the bottom. Selecting a specific setting locks the depth range
into Manual mode. Use both Upper and Lower Range together to view a specific depth range
manually when looking for fish or bottom structure.
will be displayed in the lower right
corner of the screen when you start manually adjusting the Lower Range to indicate that you
are in Manual mode.
NOTE:
A minimum distance of 10 feet will be maintained between the Upper and Lower
Range regardless of the manual settings entered.
To adjust the Lower Range:
1. Highlight Lower Range on the Sonar X-Press
TM
menu.
2. Use the LEFT or RIGHT 4-WAY Cursor Control keys to increase or decrease the
Lower Range setting. (AUTO, 10 to 1000 feet, 3 to 330 meters
[International
Models only],
Default = AUTO)
For example, if you are fishing in 60 feet of water but are only
interested in the first 30 feet (surface to a depth of 30 feet) you should
set the Lower Depth Range limit to 30. The display will show the 0 to
30 foot range, allowing you to see a more detailed view than you
would see if the display went all the way to the bottom.

Upper Range
(Advanced: Sonar, Split Sonar, Big Digits and
Circular Flasher views only)
Upper Range
sets the shallowest depth range that will be displayed on the Sonar, Split
Sonar, Big Digits and Circular Flasher Views. The Upper Range menu choice is available
when User Mode is set to Advanced (see
Setup Menu Tab: User Mode
) and can only be
accessed from the Sonar, Split Sonar, Big Digits and Circular Flasher Views. Upper Range
is often used with Lower Range.
NOTE:
A minimum distance of 10 feet will be maintained between the Upper and Lower
Range regardless of the manual settings entered.
To adjust the Upper Range:
1. Make sure you are in Advanced Mode, then highlight Upper Range on the Sonar
X-Press
TM
menu.
2. Use the LEFT or RIGHT 4-WAY Cursor Control keys to increase or decrease the
Upper Range setting. (0 to 990 feet or 0 to 327 meters
[International Models
only]
, Default = 0)
For example, if you are only interested in the area between 20 and 50
feet deep, you should set the Upper Depth Range to 20 and the Lower
Depth Range to 50. The Sonar View will then show the 30 foot area
between 20 and 50, and will not show the surface or the bottom
(assuming the bottom is deeper than 50 feet), and will show greater
detail for that area between 20 and 50 feet.
