Sonar Terms:
Alarm, Depth:
Depth Alarm is a user-controllable, audible alert that sounds
when depth is less than or equal to the setting.
Alarm, Temperature:
Temperature Alarm is a user-controllable, audible alert
that sounds when the water surface temperature equals the setting.
Backlight:
Backlight is a user-controllable illumination for the LCD for night and
low light use.
Beam (Sonar Beam):
A sonar beam is the wide, cone-shaped projection of
sound waves formed as sound travels underwater. See
Cone Angle
.
Big Digits View:
Big Digits View is a Humminbird® feature that displays the sonar
graph and enlarged digital readouts for easy reading from a distance. This is a
great tool when monitoring the digital depth is important - such as with higher
boat speeds, or when viewing the unit from a distance. When speed input is
available, the Big Digits View also shows the TripLog. See
TripLog
.
Bottom Black:
Bottom Black is a Humminbird® feature that “fills in“ the area of
the display below the bottom contour. Bottom Black is preferred by some
anglers because of its high contrast and easy readability, even though it can
obscure bottom hardness information.
Bottom Contour:
Bottom Contour is the profile of the bottom graphed to the
display as the depth changes.
Bottom Hardness:
Bottom Hardness is the density (or composition) of the
bottom, which can often be determined by interpreting the main sonar return.
Varying levels of hardness can be determined by interpreting the “thickness“ of
the sonar return. Hard returns appear thin and black, softer returns appear
thicker and less black. It is important to note that a sonar return from a sloping
bottom can have the appearance of a softer bottom.
Cavitation:
Cavitation is the effect of air bubbles created as the propeller
rotates and the boat moves through the water.
