Dead Zone: The dead zone is the area of the sonar beam that receives the sonar signal after the main bottom return. Fish and other objects close to the bottom that fall within the dead zone will probab ly not be visible in the sona r beam. Precision sonar beams , s uch as t he Hum minbird® 20° b eam, have a sm aller dead zone than wider sonar beams.

Decibel: A D ecibel is the m easurement for s ound pressure l evel, or “intensity”of the sonar return. See dB Down Point.

dB Down Point: The dB Down Point is the standard decibel level at which the sonar cone angle is meas ured, and is wr itten as “@ -1 0 d B” or “@ -3 dB“. Measurements at smaller down points (bigger negative numbers) indicate that the less intensive sonar signals are being used for the measurement.

Display, FSTN: FSTN is an acr onym for Film Super-Twist Nematic. FSTN is a monochrome display technology characterized by black, high-contrast pixels. All monochrome fixed mount Humminbird® products use FSTN technology.

DualBeam PLUS™: DualBeam PLUS™ is a Humminbird® sonar configuration that uses two sonar beams simultaneously, and combines the information from both beams into one view by overlapping the d ata on-screen, or shows each beam individually side by side, or permits each beam to be viewed individually full screen.
