Numeral Size
Numeral Size is the next Option menu. Two options are available: Big
and Small. The factory setting is Big. With this setting, the digital depth
and speed and temp numerals are drawn large enough to be readable
from across the boat. The big numerals occupy space on the display
which could be used for the graphics area. Hence, the small numerals
option. With small numerals selected, a greater amount of the display
area is available for the graphic view. This effectively increases the
display resolution of the unit. Sonar targets which are very close together
can often be displayed as separate targets, though the distance from
which the numerals are readable is somewhat less.
Use the UP and DOWN ARROW buttons to highlight the desired
selection, then press MENU to advance to the next menu.
Numeral Size settings are remembered when powered off.
Transducer
The Transducer option allows manual selection or identification of a
non-standard transducer. The Wide Optic is designed to work with the
TriBeam transducer supplied with the unit. There are several instances
in which an alternative transducer may be used (i.e. a Wide Side or a
trolling motor mount transducer). Often two transducers are used in
conjunction with a transducer switch to provide increased utility.
The Wide Optic has the ability to positively identify a Tri-beam
transducer. If this identification is made, the unit operates normally with
no further input from the user. If a transducer other than the Tri-beam
transducer is connected, the Wide Optic will assume this transducer is
a Wide Side transducer (available as an accessory) and the screen
layout will change automatically to show the Wide Side display.
In the event that a non-standard transducer other than the Wide Side is
connected (Dual Beam), the user must manually identify this transducer so that the Wide Optic can
interpret the information received. Once this identification is made, the unit defaults to this setting
whenever a nonstandard transducer is detected.
The Transducer Option menu provides three options; Tri-beam, dual, and side. If a Tri-beam transducer is
connected to the unit, the Tribeam selection is highlighted. It is not possible to select one of the other
options.
If a non-standard transducer is detected, an option other than Tri-beam is highlighted. If no previous user
selection has been made, Side will be the default. If the Wide Side transducer is connected, then the
proper selection has been made and no further user input is required. If a dual beam transducer is
connected, use the ARROW buttons to highlight that selection. With dual selected, anytime the Wide
Optic detects a transducer other than the standard Tri-beam, the unit will assume that transducer is a
dual beam.
Note: If a non-standard transducer is detected, it will not be possible to select the Tri-beam option in the
Transducer Options menu. If a Tri-beam transducer is detected, only the Tri-beam selection is possible.
Often it is desirable to use a transducer switch to connect two Tri-beam transducers or a Tri-beam
transducer and a non-standard transducer to the Wide Optic. In either of these situations, the Wide Optic
identifies the Tri-beam transducer and operates normally when that transducer is selected by the switch.
If a non-standard transducer is selected by the switch, the Wide Optic will assume that transducer is of
the type identified in the Transducer Options menu, and will configure the display accordingly.
