[Draft]: The default depth
display shows the distance
from the transducer. If you
would rather show the dis-
tance from the sea surface,
set your ship's draft.
[Gain ADJ HF], [Gain ADJ
LF]: If the gain is too high or
too low, or the gain for the
low and high frequencies
appears unbalanced, you
can compensate it here.
[Temp]: If the water temper-
ature indication is wrong,
you can correct it here. For
example, if the water tem-
perature indication is 2°
higher than actual water temperature,
enter -2.
[Speed(STW)]: If the speed
indication is wrong, you can
correct it here. For example,
if the speed indication is
10% lower than actual
speed, enter +10.
[Fish Size]: Compensate for wrongful indica-
tion of fish size.
[Water Type]: Select the water type with
which to use the equipment, from [Salt] or
[Fresh]. Select correct water type to get accu-
rate depth data.
[Zero Line Rejector]: Turn the zero line
(transmission line) on or off. When turned on,
the transmission line disappears, which al-
lows you to see fish echoes near the surface
clearly. The length of the transmission line
changes with transducer used and installation
characteristics. If the width of the transmis-
sion line is 4.5 ft (default value) or more, set
the transmission line width with [Zero Line Ar-
ea], as below.
