Side Beam View

(QuadraBeamTM Only)

Side Beam View shows sonar information from both the left and right 90° 455 kHz beams and the 200 kHz down-looking beam in one view. The top portion of the display presents a historical log of sonar returns from the 200 kHz down-looking sonar. The bottom portion of the display presents a historical log of sonar returns from the 455 kHz right- and left-looking sonar. New information appears at the top, and scrolls down the display in the 455 kHz Windows. The sonar information from the side-looking beams reveal 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 90° beams is based on the depth setting for the down-looking beam, up to a maximum of 160 feet.

Bottom Presentation

As the boat moves, the unit charts the changes in depth on the display to create a profile of the Bottom Contour. The type of bottom can be determined from the return charted on the display. A Hard Bottom such as compacted sediment or flat rock appears as a thinner line across the display. A Soft Bottom such as mud or sand appears as a thicker line across the display. Rocky Bottoms have a broken, random appearance.
