measured sideways. See Fig. 3-9. The units used here are chosen using the entry for Depth Units in the System Setup Menu. If you have selected feet (FT) or fathoms (FA), the distance shown here will be measured in feet. If you have selected meters (M), the distance shown here will be in meters.
Fish indication An arch-shaped mark shows that the unit has detected a fish. In general, a larger arch indicates a larger fish. If the fish symbols are turned on, the unit will indicate fish using these instead. A number beside each symbol shows the distance from the boat to the fish. Remember that this distance is measured sideways. See Fig. 3-9. The units used here are chosen using the entry for Depth Units in the System Setup Menu. If you have selected feet (FT) or fathoms (FA), the distance shown here will be measured in feet. If you have selected meters (M), the distance shown here will be in meters.
Bottom/Shore
Indication This indicates the area where the transducer beam is start- ing to see the bottom, shore, or some other object. Again, remember that the beam is looking sideways, so this could really represent the bank of a stream or the space under a dock or pier.
Depth | This is the depth directly below the boat. Even when the |
| Sidelooker feature is turned on, the downward-looking |
| transducer is still used to measure the depth. |
The Sidelooker feature has settings for Range and Sensitivity which are separate from the Range and Sensitivity settings used for the standard FishFinder Page. See Section 4 for details.
