Chart Speed Setting

Most of the displays on the FishFinder show a record of the signals the unit has received. The new information appears at the right (or top) edge of the display. The older information moves toward the left (or bottom) of the display. The chart speed adjustment sets the speed at which the display moves. (Notice that the scrolling speed of the display is not related to the speed of the boat over the bottom. The speed of the display is controlled only by the chart speed setting.)

Figure 4-4 shows how the chart speed setting affects the display. In both cases, the unit is showing the same section of the bottom. Using a faster chart speed, the display has more space on the display to show this section, so it can include more detail. Using a slower chart speed, this
