USING THE 425SX

MENU FUNCTIONS

Zoom. The 425SX uses a greatly enhanced Zoom capability called “TruZoom” which offers expanded

information on a select area of sonar information. Zoom is similar to Depth Range because it controls the range of information displayed on screen. Zoom, however, allows for selection of ranges beneath the

surface so any area of water between the surface and

the bottom can be enlarged to provide more detailed information. By using the full display to show a small area of coverage, the effective display resolution is increased, and the unit’s ability to separate close targets is enhanced.

The Zoom ranges available are dependent on the current depth range. In the 5m (15') depth range, TruZoom displays a range equal to one half the current depth range. In the 10m (30'), 20m (60'), 40m (120'), 60m (180'), 80m (240'), 110m (360'), 150m (480') and 185m (600') depth ranges, TruZoom displays a range equal to one fourth the current depth range. The box at the right side of the screen outlines the area to be zoomed.

The 425SX shows Zoom range in conjunction with the full depth range. The Zoom range is shown on the left side of the screen and full range information is shown on the right side of the display. The area which is being enlarged by Zoom is indicated by the square box. Zoom can either operate automatically, in which the Zoom range is constantly adjusted to show the bottom, or manually, in which the user controls the location of the Zoom range.

“Automatic” Zoom is especially helpful when looking for structure or bottom detail. The “Automatic” Zoom keeps the bottom in view even in quickly changing terrain. “Manual” Zoom provides detailed information of any area from the surface to the bottom.
