FISH ID
The Fish ID feature identifies targets that meet certain conditions as fish. The microcomputer analyses all echoes and eliminates surface clutter, thermoclines, and other signals that are undesirable. In most instances, remaining targets are fish. The Fish ID feature displays symbols on the screen in place of the actual fish echoes. There are four fish symbol sizes: tiny, small, medium, and large. These are used to designate the relative size between targets. In other words, it displays a small fish symbol when it thinks a target is a small fish, a medium fish symbol on a larger target, etc.
The microcomputer is sophisticated, but it can be fooled. It can't distinguish between fish and other suspended objects such as trotlines, turtles, submerged floats, air bubbles, etc. Individual tree limbs extending out- wards from a group of limbs is the hardest object for the Fish ID feature to distinguish from fish.
You may see Fish ID symbols on the screen when actually, there are no fish. Practice with the unit in both the Fish ID mode and without to become more familiar with the Fish ID feature.
When the Accura 240 is turned on, the Fish ID feature is automatically turned on, also. To turn the Fish ID feature off, press the menu key, then press the arrow keys until the FISH ID menu appears. Press the left arrow key to turn the fish ID feature off. To turn the Fish ID feature on again, repeat the above steps, but press the right arrow key until the "ON" is highlighted. Any targets the microcomputer determines are fish will be displayed as fish sym- bols.
Remember, the Fish ID feature can’t be used when the Accura 240 is in the manual mode. If you turn the Fish ID feature on when the Accura 240 is in manual, the microcomputer will turn the automatic feature on. If you turn automatic off when the Fish ID feature is on, the Fish ID feature will be turned off also.
FISHTRACK™
The FishTrack feature shows the depth of a fish symbol when it appears on the display. This lets you accurately gauge the depth of targets. This feature is available only when the Fish ID feature is on.
