8 Using the echosounder
The Echosounder function provides a view of the water and bottom beneath your vessel,
allowing you to detect fish and examine the structure of the sea floor.
The echosounder displays the water column moving from right to left on the panel.
You can select between single panel view and several split views as described later in
this chapter.

If you select Auto, the system will automatically display the whole range from the water
surface to the bottom.

This option allows you to manually set both upper and lower range
limits.
