Choosing range

The basic range and range shifting functions used together give you the means to choose the depth you can see on the screen. The basic range can be thought of as providing a “window” into the water column and range shifting as moving the “window” to the desired depth.

Choosing basic range

The basic range may be chosen with the [RANGE] key from the eight ranges shown in the table shown below. (“P/B” in the table means Passi/Braza.) The setting range can be arranged through the SYSTEM menu.
