Views and Readouts

All views have an Information Bar on the left side of the screen, consisting of readouts that are stacked vertically, and that change from view to view. You can customize the information displayed in individual readouts on many views, including suppressing a particular readout so that nothing is displayed; the ability to customize readouts depends on the view and whether you are navigating (see Setup Menu Tab, Select Readouts for more information).

Side Imaging View

Side Imaging View shows a shadowed right- and left-looking view from the boat as the boat passes over the bottom. See Side Imaging: On the Water Interpretation for more information about interpreting the Side Imaging view.

In this view, you can change which side you look at, the sensitivity of the sonar to allow you to see more or less detail, the range of the side beams, the scrolling speed of the chart, and the color scheme of the display, all from the Side Imaging X-Press™ Menu. See Side Imaging X-Press™ Menu, as well as Understanding Side Imaging, for more information.

Freeze Frame - Pressing any arrow on the 4-WAY Cursor Control key will freeze the screen in the Side Imaging View and a cursor and cursor dialog box will be displayed on the screen. The cursor can be positioned on the display using the 4-WAY Cursor Control key to determine the depth of any sonar return. In addition, see the effects of menu setting changes with Instant Image Update.

Pressing the - or + ZOOM keys while in Freeze Frame will zoom the Side Imaging Image around the cursor, allowing for a more detailed inspection of the sonar returns.

Pressing EXIT will exit Freeze Frame and the display will start to scroll.
