2D Sonar View
2D Sonar View
is a 2-dimensional view that presents a historical log of 2D
sonar returns. When in 2D Sonar View, your unit operates like a typical
depthsounder. The most recent sonar returns are charted on the right side of
the window; as new information is received, the older information is moved
across the display to the left. There are, however, several exceptions. The 6-
beam, 53 degree transducer allows you to search for fish with a much wider
area of coverage. Only the two center beams provide sonar returns for the
bottom contour shown on the display. The fish symbols shown in the 2D
Sonar View are the same as those used in the 3D Sonar View, and provide
information on the location of the fish relative to the boat (see
Sonar Menu
Tab, Fish ID+
). Use the 2D Sonar View for identifying structure and bottom
hardness.
NOTE:
If the Depth number is flashing, it means that the unit is having trouble
locating the bottom. This usually happens if the water is too deep, the transducer
is out of the water, the boat is moving too fast, or for any other reason that the
unit can’t accurately receive continuous data.
Freeze Frame -
Pressing any arrow on the 4-WAY Cursor Control key will
freeze the screen in the 2D Sonar View and a cursor and cursor dialog box
will be displayed on the screen. The cursor can be positioned on the display
using the 4-WAY Cursor Control key to determine the depth of any sonar
return. The RTS® Window continues to update in Freeze Frame. In addition,
see the effects of menu setting changes with Instant Image Update.
Pressing EXIT will exit Freeze Frame and the display will start to scroll. Freeze
Frame is only available in the Sonar View.
