While learning to use the Fishtrax™ 1C it is recommended that you

use the AUTO

sensitivity setting. This setting will continually

monitor the sonar returns and adjust the sensitivity to reduce and/or

increase the amount of echoes displayed on the HD VirtuView™

display.

Information:

Which setting is the right setting? It greatly depends on the clarity

and/or depth of the water. Very clear water allows for a moderate

sensitivity setting. Conversely, dirty water requires a higher

sensitivity setting to target detail but will increase irritating false

readings. Targeting deep water fish generally requires greater sensitivity,

especially in stained or dirty water. Salt and brackish water also require a

comparatively higher sensitivity setting. While this analysis may seem

confusing, the concept is simple. As the Fish Finder's sensitivity is elevated, a

broader view and smaller details show on the screen. But, with a broader and

stronger view comes more clutter and debris. The clearer the water, the less

sensitivity needed to get accurate details and vice-versa.

B. ADJUSTING THE DEPTH RANGE DISPLAYED ON THE SCREEN

You can set the display on the FishTrax™ 1C to automatically adjust the

display range to the water depth, or manually set it to lock the display in a

specific depth range.

Select AUTO to have the display automatically adjust the depth range for the

detected water depth. Advanced users may want to manually select a depth

range from 0-9 Ft. to 0-240 Ft. (0-3 M to 0-73 M) to only see sonar echoes in

those ranges. Keep in mind this locks the depth range of the display to this

preset range and ONLY sonar returns from that range will be displayed.

To Adjust the Depth Range:

1. Press and release the

2. Press and release the
