pressing the UP and DOWN ARROW buttons after the Zoom menu is off-screen, the position of the Zoom box will change, and the upper and lower limits of the Zoom range will be displayed.

To disable Zoom, press the MENU button until the Zoom menu is on-screen. Use the UP ARROW to highlight Oft, and let the menu time out. The digital depth information is not affected by Zoom.

When the unit is powered off, the Zoom menu returns to Zoom Off.

Depth Alarm

The Wide 3D Paramount contains an audible alarm to warn you of shallow water depths. The alarm is adjustable from 2' to 99' of depth. When the alarm is enabled, an audible alarm is sounded if the water beneath the boat is equal to or less than the selected alarm depth. Upon activation, the alarm sounds continuously for about 5 seconds, and then intermittently to remind you that you are still in shallow water. A Bird Note T"' will appear on screen to visually indicate the Depth Alarm has been activated. Additionally, the Wide 3D Paramount can anticipate quickly changing terrain

and sound the Depth Alarm before the bottom depth actually reaches the preset alarm depth.

To enable Depth Alarm, press MENU repeatedly until the Depth Alarm menu is on-screen. The Factory Setting is "Off". Use the DOWN ARROW to highlight On. The menu will expand to show the current Depth Alarm setting. Use the UP or DOWN ARROW to set the desired depth for alarm activation.

Once the menu times out, the Depth Alarm is enabled and an arrow will remain onscreen which indicates the depth for which the alarm is adjusted. To further adjust the setting, simply press the UP or DOWN ARROW. An abbreviated menu appears briefly to indicate the setting. If the alarm is

sounding and you want to disable it, use the MENU button to bring the Depth Alarm menu on- screen, and the UP ARROW to highlight "Off". The alarm will stop sounding as soon as any button is pressed.

The Wide 3D Paramount defaults to Depth Alarm "Off" when powered off; however, the most recent depth setting is remembered.

Fish Alarm

The Fish Alarm alerts you to the presence of fish, or other targets not connected to the bottom. The Fish Alarm has 3 different settings which correspond to the 3 different size fish symbols shown on-screen.

To enable Fish Alarm, press the MENU button repeatedly until the Fish Alarm menu appears on-screen. The menu shows two options, "Off" (Factory Setting) and "On". Use the DOWN ARROW to highlight "On" and the menu further expands to show the 3 alarm options. The selected setting will be "Large fish only". With this setting, the Wide 3D Paramount alarms on only those targets which are represented by the

3D specifications

Humminbird 3D is a groundbreaking sonar technology that has revolutionized the way anglers and marine enthusiasts navigate and fish under the surface of water. Utilizing advanced imaging techniques, this system provides an unparalleled view of underwater structures, fish, and other elements, making it a vital tool for any serious angler.

At its core, Humminbird 3D employs a proprietary sonar technology that combines traditional 2D sonar with sophisticated 3D mapping capabilities. This dual functionality allows users to visualize underwater environments in a way that was previously unimaginable. The 3D views offer depth perception, enabling anglers to identify ledges, drop-offs, and other crucial fishing spots with precision. Instead of just a flat representation, users can see the terrain's contours, making it easier to understand the underwater landscape.

One of the standout features of Humminbird 3D is its ability to create real-time three-dimensional maps. This allows users to dynamically adjust their strategies while fishing, as they can continually monitor how fish are interacting with their surroundings. Furthermore, the system boasts enhanced target separation capabilities, making it easier to distinguish between individual fish and structures.

Another key technology utilized in Humminbird 3D is its integration with the CHIRP (Compressed High-Intensity Radiated Pulse) sonar technology. This allows for clearer images and improved target resolution, providing comprehensive details about various underwater elements. The result is greater accuracy in identifying fish species and understanding their behavior in relation to underwater structures.

Humminbird 3D also features an easy-to-use interface, designed to be intuitive for users of all experience levels. The system can be seamlessly integrated into existing Humminbird products, enhancing the functionality of existing setups without requiring a complete overhaul. Additionally, it supports connectivity with other devices, allowing for the sharing of data and enhancing the overall fishing experience.

Durability and reliability are also characteristics inherent to the Humminbird 3D system. Designed for the harsh environments of marine use, it can withstand the rigors of fishing and boating, ensuring that users have a dependable tool at their disposal.

In summary, Humminbird 3D is a game-changer in the realm of sonar technology, providing anglers with unprecedented insights into underwater environments. Its combination of 3D mapping, CHIRP sonar, real-time monitoring, and user-friendly interface makes it a valuable asset for anyone looking to enhance their fishing experience and gain an edge on the water.
