Accessing Structure Options

Structure options:

• 

 Range

 — 

Adjusts the width of the sidescan history trail. The greater 

the range setting, the wider the StructureMap history trail; Lower 

range settings reduce the width of the history trail. 

• 

 Transparency

 — Increases/decreases the visibility of Structure 

overlay on top of the map. This is helpful when using marine map-

ping cards. 

• 

 

 As you increase Structure overlay Transparency, you will be able to 

see more marine card map data through the Structure overlay. 

• 

 Palette

 — Used to select a color scheme that allows the Structure-

map detail to appear more clearly on the underlying chart.

• 

 Contrast

 — 

Adjusts the brightness ratio between light and dark areas 

on the screen, making it easier to distinguish suspended objects from 

the background.

• 

 Frequency

 — 

Controls the transducer frequency used by the unit. 

800 kHz offers the best resolution, while 455 kHz has greater depth 

coverage.

• 

 

Noise Rejection

 — 

Monitors the effects noise (boat pumps, water 

conditions, engine ignition systems, etc.) has on your display, and 

then filters out undesired signals.

• 

Source

 — Selects StructureMap Source, Live mode or Saved mode
