Eagle Electronics 242 manual Chart Speed control bar

Chart Speed control bar.

You, however, might consider experimenting with chart speed when you are stationary or drifting very slowly. Sometimes, you may achieve better images as you decrease the chart speed to match the speed of your boat.

If you are at anchor, ice fishing or fishing from a dock, experiment with a chart speed of 25 percent. If you are drifting slowly, try a chart speed of 50 percent. When you are stationary and a fish swims through the sonar signal cone, the image appears on the screen as a long line in- stead of a fish arch. Reducing the chart speed may result in a shorter line that more closely resembles a regular fish return.

To adjust Chart Speed, press MENU until the CHART SPEED control bar appears. Press to increase the speed of the chart. Press to decrease it. Press PWR to clear the menu.

To return to the original setting, repeat the above steps, but use the arrow keys to set the speed to 100% before clearing the menu.
