SI Side

Settings: Left, Both, Right, Default = Both

SI Side sets which transducer beam from the Side Imaging® beams will be shown on the display.

Whether you’re searching the Side Imaging® data for fish or certain bottom contour, the most effective settings will vary with the situation. The display will update as you adjust each category. SI Enhance can also be used during Recording Playback (see Snapshot and Recording View).

SI Sensitivity

Settings: Auto, 1 to 20, where Low = 1,

High = 20, Default = 10

SI Sensitivity controls how much detail is shown on the display.

Increase the SI Sensitivity to reveal weaker returns that may be of interest, especially in very clear water or greater depths. A high SI Sensitivity setting shows more sonar returns from small baitfish and suspended debris in the water; however if the SI Sensitivity is adjusted too high, the display may become too cluttered.

Decrease the SI Sensitivity to eliminate the clutter from the display that is sometimes present in murky or muddy water. If SI Sensitivity is adjusted too low, the display may not show many sonar returns that could be fish.

SI Enhance

Settings: Press the RIGHT Cursor key.

SI Enhance allows you to adjust your Side Imaging® View in three categories: Sensitivity, Contrast, and Sharpness.

SI Enhance Submenu

Sensitivity - Controls how much detail is shown on the display. When operating in very clear water or greater depths, increased sensitivity shows weaker returns that may be of interest. Decreasing the sensitivity eliminates the clutter from the display that is sometimes present in murky or muddy water. (1 to 20, where Low = 1, High = 20, Default = 10)

NOTE: The Sensitivity can be adjusted from the SI Enhance dialog box or the Side Imaging® X-Press™ Menu. The Sensitivity setting is provided here so that you can easily adjust the Side Imaging® data with the other settings. See Side Imaging® X-Press™ Menu: SI Sensitivity for more information.

Contrast: Accents the light and dark parts of the Side Imaging® data to provide greater definition. (1-20, Default = 10)

Sharpness: Filters the view and sharpens the edges of the Side Imaging® data. (Low (L), Medium (M), High (H), Default = Off)
