Zoom
Zoom is similar to Depth Range in that it controls the range of information displayed in the graphics area of the display. Zoom, however, allows selection of ranges beneath the surface so any area of water between the surface and the bottom can be enlarged to provide more detailed information. By using the full display to show a small area of coverage, the effective display resolution is increased, and the unit’s ability to separate targets which are very close together is enhanced.
There are four different Zoom ranges available; 7 ½ feet, 15 feet, 30 feet, and 60 feet. These ranges are not directly user controlled but are instead dependent on the current depth range. In shallow water, when the 15 foot or 30 foot range is in use, the Zoom range is 7 ½ feet. If the 60 foot or 120 foot range is in use, the Zoom range is 15 feet. If a 180

In “Manual” Zoom, the Zoom range does not move as the terrain changes.
To operate Zoom, press MENU repeatedly until the Zoom menu is
