When the menu disappears, the graphics area of the screen will be divided in half. Full range information is on the right, Zoom information on the left. The digital depth readout is unaffected by Zoom.

Pressing the DOWN ARROW again to highlight “Manual” activates Manual Zoom. The menu further expands to show the current Zoom range, and allows user adjustment of this range.

When the range is shown in the menu, the upper number represents the top of the current Zoom range. The lower number represents the bottom of the Zoom range. The UP and DOWN ARROW buttons can be used to move this range. The upper number can never be less than 0 (the surface of the water), and the lower number can never be greater than the active depth range.

Once “Manual” Zoom is selected, the display will appear the same as in “Auto” Zoom, but the zoom range does not change automatically. If further adjustment of the Zoom is necessary, pressing either ARROW button while Zoom is active will move the Zoom range up or down. The menu returns briefly to show the numeric values as the adjustment is made.

To disable Zoom. Press the Menu button until the Zo0m menu is on-screen. Use the UP ARROW to highlight Off, and let the menu time out.

When the unit is powered off, the Zoom menu returns to Zoom Off.

Depth Alarm

The Wide Portrait contains an audible alarm to warn you of shallow water depths. The alarm is adjustable from 2 feet to 99 feet of depth. When the alarm is enabled, an audible alarm is sounded if the water beneath the boat is equal to or less than the selected alarm depth. Upon activation, the alarm sounds continuously for about 5 seconds, and then intermittently to remind you that you are still in shallow water.
