MODES
This unit has five different modes: FASTRAK,
digital/chart, split-chart, full chart, and win-
dow groups. Each of these modes also has
multiple options. To select a different mode,
first press the MODE key. A screen similar
to the one at right appears. Press the up or
down arrow key to select the desired mode,
then press the left or right arrow key to select
an option from that mode, if necessary.
Press the EXIT key to erase the menu.
FASTRAK
This feature converts all echoes to short
horizontal lines on the display’s far right
side. The graph continues to operate nor-
mally. FASTRAK gives you a rapid update
of conditions directly under the boat. This
makes it useful for ice fishing, or when
you’re fishing at anchor. Since the unit is not
moving, fish signals are long, drawn out
lines on a normal chart display. FASTRAK
converts the graph to a vertical bar graph
that, with practice, makes a useful addition
to fishing at a stationary location.
Full Chart
This is the default mode used when the unit
is first turned on. The bottom signal scrolls
across the screen from right to left. Depth
scales on the right side of the screen makes
it easy to determine the depth of fish, struc-
ture, and other objects. The line at the top of
the screen represents the surface. The bot-
tom depth shows at the top left corner of the
screen. "192" next to the digital depth shows
the frequency of the digital sonar. In this
case, it's operating at 192 kHz. The word
"AUTO" at the screen's top center shows that the sonar is in the automatic
mode, freeing you from sensitivity, range, and noise rejection
adjustments.The "192 KHZ" at the bottom of the screen shows that this
chart is operating at 192 kHz. You can switch the full chart between 192 and
50 kHz.
