Sonar Operation Sonar Menu Overlay data Sonar menu Sonar page Sensitivity Range Controls the level of detail shown on the display. Too much detail will clutter the screen. If Sensitivity is set too low, desired echoes may not be displayed. Fish arches Sensitivity Frequency 3 Auto Default setting; works well under most conditions, reducing the need for adjustments.
Colorline Fish ID Separates strong sonar echoes from weak echoes, making it easier to distinguish fish or structure from the bottom. A hard return will be shown as a wide, bright yellow area, whereas a soft return will be a narrow reddish-blue area. Displays fish echoes as fish symbols instead of fish arches. Fish ID is not the most accurate method of fish detection as it can display structure and suspended debris as fish symbols on the display. Range Selects the water depth visible on the screen.
Ping Speed Overlay data Controls the rate of sonar pings transmitted by the transducer. Ping speed adjustments can help reduce interference from other transducers. Select Overlay data to add Depth, Temperature and/or Voltage data to the screen. You can also select the size of data overlay. The default ping speed is optimized for most fishing conditions, so adjustments are rarely necessary.
