Beam

The Beam setting allows the selection of a Narrow Beam or Wide Beam for the transducer. A narrow beam provides higher detail structure returns of a smaller bottom area. The wide beam shows a larger fish return area with poorer detail of non-bottom structure.

Whiteline

The Whiteline setting controls how the unit displays information about the bottom type (hard or soft). With Whiteline off, the bottom return displays as a solid color. With Whiteline on, the strongest area of bottom return becomes white and can be used to determine bottom hardness. A hard bottom returns a stronger signal and displays a thicker bottom layer. A soft bottom returns a weaker signal and displays a thinner bottom layer.
