The Sonar X-Press™ Menu provides access to the settings most frequently-used. Press the MENU key once while in any of the Sonar Views to access the Sonar X-Press™ Menu.

Sonar X-Press™ Menu

Side View

(WideSide® Transducer: WideSide® View Only)

Side View sets which transducer beam from the WideSide® Transducer is shown in the WideSide® View. A WideSide® transducer must be connected to the Matrix™ Fishing System. The Side View menu choice is available when Transducer Select is set to WideSide® (see Sonar Menu Tab: Transducer Select) and can only be accessed from the Sonar X-Press™ menu when you are in WideSide® view.

NOTE: The WideSide® View requires the purchase of the WideSide® transducer. You can visit our website at www.humminbird.com to order this accessory online or contact our Customer Resource Center at 1-800-633-1468.

To adjust the Side View:

1.Make sure you are in WideSide® Transducer Mode and that a WideSide® transducer is connected, then highlight Side View on the Sonar X-Press™ menu.

2.Use the LEFT or RIGHT 4-WAY Cursor Control keys to change the Side View setting. (L [Left], Both, R [Right], Default = Both)

Sensitivity

Sensitivity controls how much detail is shown on the display. Increasing the sensitivity shows more sonar returns from small baitfish and suspended debris in the water; however, the display may become too cluttered. When operating in very clear water or greater depths, increased sensitivity shows weaker returns that may be of interest. Decreasing the sensitivity eliminates the clutter from the display that is sometimes present in murky or muddy water. If Sensitivity is adjusted too low, the display may not show many sonar returns that could be fish.

Sensitivity at Low

Sensitivity at Medium

Sensitivity at High

To adjust the Sensitivity:

1.Highlight Sensitivity on the Sonar X-Press™ menu.

2.Use the LEFT or RIGHT 4-WAY Cursor Control keys to increase or decrease the Sensitivity setting. (Low = 1, High = 20, Default = 10)
