3. To resume scrolling, press the RESUME soft key. The key is relabeled
PAUSE.
4. Press ENTER to return to the Menu soft keys, then ENTER again to return to
the default display.
Selecting the Power Setting
The POWER soft key provides adjustment of the transducer signal. When AUTO
is selected (default), the Fishfinder automatically determines the power
setting based on the current depth. LO power (100 W) is used in depth ranges
less than 8 ft (2.4 m) and HI power (600 or 1000 W, depending on your
transducer) is selected for depths greater than 12 ft (3.7 m). When AUTO is
selected the current automatic power setting is indicated in the top status line
by an L (low) or H (high).
Note: When AUTO POWER has been selected, and you manually adjust the
RANGE to 30 ft (10 m) or greater, the Fishfinder switches to HI power, regard-
less of what the digital depth is calculated to be.
If, however, you wish to manually adjust the power to suit current conditions,
you can select either LO or HI power.
The power setting is retained when the unit is powered off.
➤ To change the power setting:
1. Press the MULTI key to display the soft key controls.
2. Press the POWER soft key to toggle between AUTO, LO, or HI power. The
selected setting is highlighted.
3. Press ENTER or CLEAR to return to the default screen.
Changing the Fishfinder Range
The Fishfinder automatically adjusts the display range. Alternatively, the
RANGE key lets you select the maximum depth displayed on the scrolling
bottom and A-Scope displays. You can also set the shift value to move the
image window up or down within the current range.
If you select automatic range adjustment, the Fishfinder selects the shallowest
range that keeps the bottom in the lower half of the display window. Shift is
disabled (the value is ignored) when auto-range is selected.
