Fig. 6.1b - The 50-200 FISH FINDER (III)
6.2How can I set optimal operating parameters.
Optimal operating parameters can be set accordingly with the intended use of the Fish Finder, anyway to quickly get optimal operational parameters for fishing it is possible to select the FISH preset from the Fish Finder Setup menu, while for cruising it is possible to select the CRUISE preset.
6.3What are preset modes?
Preset modes are
♦CRUISE: sets the Fish Finder in full auto mode with the sensitivity set- tings (GAIN OFFSET, NOISE level and STC) optimized for displaying at best the bottom.
♦FISH: sets the Fish Finder in full auto mode with the sensitivity setting optimized for target searching.
6.4How can I restore the Fish Finder default operating
parameters?
Simply select the CRUISE or the FISH preset. This will restore optimal operating parameters for either cruising or fishing.
6.5Can I always leave the Fish Finder in Full Auto/(auto gain
and auto range) mode?
Yes, but note that the full auto mode suits the 90% of the cases, however in extreme situations the auto modes mail fail and thus it is necessary to switch to the Manual mode.
6.6What are extreme situations in which auto modes may
fail?
When the bottom is very deep, at high boat speed, when the bottom is very shallow (< 5 feet), when the water is full of materials in suspension, with bad sea conditions.
