Surface Clutter
(Advanced)
Surface Clutter
adjusts the filter that removes surface clutter noise caused by algae
and aeration. The lower the setting, the less surface clutter will be displayed. The
Surface Clutter menu choice is available when User Mode is set to Advanced (see
Setup Menu Tab: User Mode
).
NOTE:
If the Surface Clutter menu is set to lower than 5, it will also decrease the displayed
signal strength of targets (fish) close to the surface.
To change the Surface Clutter setting:
1. Make sure you are in Advanced User Mode, then highlight Surface Clutter on
the Sonar main menu.
2. Use the LEFT or RIGHT 4-WAY Cursor Control keys to change the Surface
Clutter setting. (Low = 1 to High = 10, Default = 5)

Noise Filter
(Advanced)
Noise Filter
adjusts the sonar Noise Filter to limit interference on the display from
sources such as your boat engine, turbulence, or other sonar devices. The Noise Filter
menu choice is available when User Mode is set to Advanced (see
Setup Menu Tab:
User Mode
).
NOTE:
The Off setting removes all filtering; Low, Medium and High settings add
progressive filtering of the sonar returns. In some deep water situations, the High setting
may actually hinder your unit’s ability to find the bottom.
To change the Noise Filter setting:
1. Make sure you are in Advanced User Mode, then highlight Noise Filter on the
Sonar main menu.
2. Use the LEFT or RIGHT 4-WAY Cursor Control keys to change the Noise Filter
setting. (Off, Low, Medium, High, Default = Low)
Max Depth
(Advanced)
Max Depth
adjusts the maximum depth of operation. The performance of your
Fishing System can be tuned to the maximum depth you will be fishing in by setting
the Max Depth. When a maximum depth is set, your Fishing System will not attempt
to acquire sonar data below that depth, thus increasing overall performance. When
Max Depth is set to Auto, the Fishing System will acquire bottom readings as needed
(within the capacity of the unit). If the bottom is deeper than the Max Depth setting,
the digital depth readout will flash, indicating that the Fishing System cannot locate
the bottom. The Max Depth menu choice is available when User Mode is set to
Advanced (see
Setup Menu Tab: User Mode
).
To change the Max Depth setting:
1. Make sure you are in Advanced User Mode, then highlight Max Depth on the
Sonar main menu.
2. Use the LEFT or RIGHT 4-WAY Cursor Control keys to change the Max Depth
setting. (AUTO, 10 to 1500 feet, 3 to 500 meters
