(Advanced)
Settings: Auto, 10 to 800 ft, 10 to 1200 ft (561 only), or 3 to 260 m (International models only); Default = Auto
Max Depth controls the maximum depth of operation. When Max Depth is set to Auto, the Fishfinder will acquire bottom readings as needed (within the capacity of the unit). When Max Depth is set to match your fishing maximum depth, your Fishfinder will not attempt to acquire sonar data below that depth, so more detail will be shown on the screen.
NOTE: If the bottom is deeper than the Max Depth setting, the digital depth readout will flash, indicating that the Fishfinder cannot locate the bottom.
Water Type(Advanced)
Settings: Fresh, Salt (shallow), Salt (deep); Default = Fresh
Water Type configures your unit for operation in fresh or salt water. In salt water, you can also choose the shallow or deep setting.
Water Type affects the accuracy of deep water depth readings. In salt water, what would be considered a large fish might be 2 to 10 times bigger than a large fish in fresh water (depending on the type of fish you are seeking). The salt water setting allows for a greater range in fish size adjustment to account for this difference.
