The bottom portion of the display presents a historical log of sonar returns from the 455 kHz right- and left-looking sonar beams. New information appears at the top, and scrolls down the display
In all of these layouts, the sonar information from the side-looking beams reveals bottom contour, structure and fish similar to the down-looking beam, but the area covered is to the left and right of the area shown in the down- looking portion, so you actually see more of the bottom. The distance covered by the right and left beams is based on the depth setting for the down-looking beam, up to a maximum of 160 feet

Pixels Pixels are the picture elements, or small square blocks, that make up the image on the LCD. Measured as a vertical by horizontal number i.e. 640 V x 320 H, this key specification typically indicates the quality of resolution. In fishfinders, the total resolution vertical multiplied by horizontal is often less important than the Vertical Pixel resolution. See Pixels, Vertical
Receiver See Transmitter
SONAR SONAR is the acronym for SOund and NAvigation Ranging. Sonar technology uses precision sound bursts transmitted underwater to determine the distance and other attributes of objects in the water. Distance can be determined because the speed of sound in water is constant, and the time for the signal to return is measured. Sound also travels very quickly underwater, making sonar a responsive, cost-effective tool. Sonar is the basic technology behind all recreational and commercial fishfinding and depthfinding devices
Structure ID Structure ID is a Humminbird feature that describes the traditional grayscale method of presenting sonar information. See Grayscale
Transducer The transducer is part of the sonar system, which mounts on the boat and is in contact with the water, that converts the electrical energy from the transmitter into sound energy, and that forms the sonar beam in turn. Internally, the transducer consists of one or more piezo electric disks that expand by very minute amounts to create the sound wave. This element also works in reverse, converting the returned sound energy back into an electrical signal that the receiver interprets. Transducers are available for many specific mounting applications for the boat, such as a transom mount, trolling motor mount, etc. Humminbird offers many sophisticated transducers, often with multiple piezo electric elements designed to form specifically-shaped sonar beams, providing the angler with superior tools for finding and catching fish. See Transmitter and SONAR
