WideSide® View

WideSide® View is only available if you have connected a WideSide® transducer accessory and when Transducer Select is set to WideSide® (see Sonar Menu Tab: Transducer Select). The WideSide® transducer requires a separate purchase. The WideSide® View displays information from the 455 kHz SideView transducer. Three views are available: Left, Right and Both. The default view is Both. Information from both the left and right beams are displayed simultaneously. The depth of the water beneath the boat is always displayed. A bottom contour may be present while bank fishing or fishing river channels. When fishing in the open water, a bottom contour will not be present, and only sonar returns from either debris or fish will be displayed.

Bird’s Eye View

Bird's Eye View shows a 3D perspective view of the track and the chart land contour from a point above and behind the boat (the eye point). As the boat turns, the eye point moves to follow the boat.

When you press the 4-WAY Cursor key in the Bird’s Eye View, the position of the eye point will shift. This allows you to move and turn the eye point so that you can look off to the sides, or even behind the boat. Pressing the RIGHT or LEFT arrow keys on the 4-WAY Cursor key turns the eye point right or left, while pressing the UP arrow key moves the eye point forward, and pressing the DOWN arrow key moves the eye point backward.

Pressing the EXIT key moves the eye point back to its original position behind and above the boat.
