MENU FUNCTIONS 
 

The following section explains each 
menu in detail, and how these 
adjustments can be used to extract the 
maximum information from the sonar 
returns. With several exceptions, once a 
setting has been changed, the Wide 
Vision will remember that setting until it is 
again changed, even if power is 
disconnected. 
 
The Wide Vision uses a special "dual 
element" transducer that transmits a wide 
and narrow beam simultaneously. Using 
two different beams allows the unit to 

compare the returns from each beam individually, the 16 degree narrow beam element only, and "Wide" 
which uses only the 53 degree element. Different onwater situations and personal preference may dictate 
the use of only one element, however the Wide Vision is designed to gather maximum information when 
both narrow and wide elements are used simultaneously (Dual). Pressing ENTER will display additional 
information about the selected beam's width of bottom coverage. The width of bottom coverage number is 
displayed onscreen and is continually updated depending on the water's depth. 
 

 

 

 
If you are using the optional Wide Side transducer, and have selected side-looking operation, the adjust- 
and gain more information about the terrain below. 
 
For instance, if a fish is detected in the wide beam only, the target may be some distance from your boat, 
however, if a target is detected in the narrow beam, the fish is directly under your boat. This directional 
information about the target is shown on-screen as hollow fish symbols for wide beam returns, and solid
