Bottom-lock display
The bottom-lock display provides a compressed normal picture on the right half of the
screen and a 15 or 30 feet (5 or 10 meter) wide layer in contact with the bottom is ex-
panded onto the left half of the screen. This mode is useful for discriminating bottom
fish from the bottom echo.
Note: The range of the bottom-lock display can be changed at BOTTOM LOCK
RANGE on RANGES menu.

Bottom-zoom display
The bottom-zoom display expands bottom and bottom fish echoes by the chosen
zoom range and is useful for determining bottom hardness. A bottom displayed with a
short echo tail usually means it is a soft, sandy bottom. A long echo tail means a hard
bottom.
Note: The range of the bottom-zoom can be changed at ZOOM RANGE on RANGES
menu.
