Sonar Alarm Settings

NOTE: Some settings require external accessories.

Select Settings

> Alarms > Sonar

Shallow Water: Sets an alarm to sound when the depth is less

than the specified value.

Deep Water: Sets an alarm to sound when the depth is greater

than the specified value.

Water Temp.: Sets an alarm to sound when the transducer

reports a temperature that is 2°F (1.1°C) above or below the

specified temperature.

Contour: Sets an alarm to sound when the transducer detects a

suspended target within the specified depth from the surface

of the water and from the bottom.

Fish: Sets an alarm to sound when the device detects a

suspended target.

• sets the alarm to sound when fish of all sizes are

detected.

• sets the alarm to sound only when medium or large

fish are detected.

• sets the alarm to sound only when large fish are

detected.

Advanced Sonar Settings

From a sonar view, select Menu > Sonar Setup > Advanced.

Transmit: Stops the transducer from transmitting.

Shift: Allows you to set the depth range on which the sonar is

focused. This allows you to zoom in a higher resolution in the

focused depth.

When using shift, bottom tracking may not work effectively,

because the sonar looks for data within the depth range of

the focused area, which may not include the bottom. Using

shift also can impact the scroll speed, because data outside

the depth range of the focused area is not processed, which

reduces the time required to receive and display the data.

You can zoom in to the focused area, which enables you to

evaluate target returns more closely at a higher resolution

than just zooming alone.

Echo Stretch: Adjusts the size of the echoes on the screen to

make it easier to see separate returns on the screen.

When targets are difficult to see, echo stretch makes the

target returns more pronounced and easier to see on the

screen. If the echo stretch value is too high, the targets blend

together, and if the value is too low, the targets might be

small and difficult to see.

You can use echo stretch and filter width together to obtain

the preferable resolution and noise reduction. With echo

stretch and filter width set to low, the display has the highest

resolution, but is the most susceptible to noise. With echo

stretch set to high and filter width set to low, the display has a

lower resolution, but has wider targets. With echo stretch and

filter width set to high, the display has the lowest resolution,

but is the least susceptible to noise. It is not recommended to

set echo stretch to low and filter width to high.

Bottom Track: Sets the frequency used for determining depth.

The bottom tracking control allows you to select the specific

channel that is used to track the bottom. For example, you

can set the bottom tracking for the low frequency for deep

water operation.

Temp. Source: Sets the channel for the water temperature log

when more than one water-temperature sensor or

temperature-capable transducer is connected.

Transducer Installation Settings

From a sonar view, select Menu > Sonar Setup > Installation.

Transmit Rate: Sets the length of time between sonar pings.

Increasing the transmit rate increases the scroll speed, but it

may also increase self-interference.

Reducing the transmit rate increases the spacing between

transmit pulses and can resolve self-interference.

Transmit Power: Reduces transducer ringing near the surface.

A lower transmit power value reduces transducer ringing, but

can also reduce the strength of the returns.

Filter Width: Defines the edges of the target. A shorter filter

more clearly defines the edges of the targets but may allow

more noise. A longer filter creates softer target edges and

may also reduce noise.

Transducer Diagnostics: Shows details about the transducer.

Flip Left/Right: Switches the

SideVü view orientation from left

to right.

Install Depth: Sets the depth below the water line where the

Panoptix transducer is mounted. Entering the actual depth at

which the transducer is mounted results in a more accurate

visual presentation of what is in the water.

Flipped: Sets the orientation of the

Panoptix sonar view when

the down view transducer is installed with the cables pointing

toward the port side of the boat.

Beam Width: Sets the width of the Panoptix transducer beam.

Narrow beam widths allow you to see deeper and farther.

Wider beam widths allow you to see more coverage area.

Use AHRS: Enables the internal attitude heading and reference

system (AHRS) sensors to detect the installation angle of the

Panoptix transducer automatically. When this setting is

turned off, you can enter the specific installation angle for the

transducer using the Pitch Angle setting. Many forward view

transducers are installed at a 45-degree angle and down

view transducers are installed at a zero-degree angle.

Sonar Recordings

Recording the Sonar Display

NOTE: Not all models support sonar recording.

Insert a memory card into the card slot.

From a sonar view, select Menu > Sonar Setup >

Sonar

Recording > Record Sonar

15 minutes of sonar recording uses approximately 200 MB of

space of the inserted memory card. You can record sonar

until the card reaches capacity.

Stopping the Sonar Recording

Before you can stop recording sonar, you must begin recording

it (Recording the Sonar Display,

page

24).

From a sonar view, select Menu > Sonar Setup > Sonar

Recording > Stop Recording.

Deleting a Sonar Recording

Insert a memory card into the card slot.

From a sonar view, select Menu > Sonar Setup > Sonar

Recordings

> View Recordings

Select a recording.

Select

Delete.

Playing Sonar Recordings

Before you can play back the sonar recordings, you must

download and install the HomePort

™

application and record

sonar data onto a memory card.

Remove the memory card from the device.

Insert the memory card into a card reader attached to a

computer.

Open the

HomePort application.

Select a sonar recording from your device list.
