What’s On the Display

The 700 Series™ Fishing System can display a variety of useful information about the area

under and adjacent to your boat, including the following items:

Depth - water depth; can be set to alarm when the water becomes too shallow.

Speed - if a Temp/Speed accessory or GPS Receiver is attached, the 700 Series™ can display the speed of the boat, and can keep a Triplog of nautical or statute miles traveled.

Temperature - water surface temperature.

Timer - elapsed time with Temp/Speed Accessory or GPS Receiver.

Distance - distance traveled with Temp/Speed Accessory or GPS Receiver.

Average Speed - average speed reading with Temp/Speed Accessory or GPS Receiver.

Cursor - available in Freeze Frame and can depth of a sonar return and bottom depth

be positioned in the Sonar View to provide below the cursor.

83 kHz, Wide Beam Hollow Fish Symbol

Structure - where fish may be hiding.

Fish - fish are displayed as arches and/or fish icons, and the unit can be set to alarm when a fish of a certain size is detected. When a target is detected and Fish ID+ is on, a Fish ID+TM symbol with depth is displayed. The size of the symbol shows the intensity of the sonar return. The unit will clearly show schools of Bait Fish as "clouds" of different shapes and sizes, depending on the number of fish and boat speed.

200 kHz, Narrow Beam Shaded Fish Symbol

Bait Ball

Hard Bottom

Rocky Bottom

Second Sonar Return - when the sonar signal bounces between the bottom and the surface of the water and back again. Use the appearance of the second return to determine bottom hardness. Hard bottoms will show a strong second return, while soft bottoms will show a very weak one or none at all.

Cursor Dialog Box - indicates cursor depth

directly below the cursor.

 

 

 

Thermoclines - layers of water with different temperatures that appear at different depths and different times of the year. A thermocline typically appears as a continuous band of many gray levels moving across the display at the same depth.

Soft Bottom

RTS® (Real Time Sonar) Window

Battery Voltage - the voltage of the boat’s battery; can be set to alarm if the voltage falls below a certain point.

NOTE: Entries in this view that list (with Temp/Speed or GPS Receiver) are available if either

optional-purchase device is connected to the 700 Series™ Fishing System. If both devices are

connected, then only the information from the GPS receiver will be displayed on the view.
