WHAT YOU SEE ON-SCREEN

Your Tour Series uses a 64 x 128 matrix SuperTwist LCD display. This type of display provides outstanding viewability in all light conditions over a wide range of temperatures.

The presentation of information on-screen may take one of several forms depending on the type of transducer being used, whether or not the Temp/Speed sensor is connected, and the current setting of various user options. See Advanced Operation for information on custom screen options.

NOTE: When in simulator mode, the word "simulator" occasionally scrolls across the display indicating that the information onscreen is not real sonar data.

The initial screen layout takes one of two basic forms depending on whether the Temp/Speed accessory is installed. Figure A shows the default view when the Temp/Speed accessory is not installed. The digital depth number shows the depth of water directly beneath the transducer location.

The range of the graphic display is shown to the right of the graphic information. The upper number is 0 indicating the surface of the water, the lower number is one of the 9 ranges available which best matches the depth of the water. As the depth of the water changes, the range changes as necessary in order to retain a bottom representation on- screen.

When in Auto mode, the horizontal line at the top of the graphics area is the 0 line which represents the surface of the water. Occasionally there will be a gap in this line. This gap indicates that the unit is updating the

display even if the bottom is not visible on-screen, or if the bottom information is not changing.

The graphic representation of the bottom may vary considerably depending on the composition and regularity of the bottom surface (see Interpreting the On-screen Information). Any sonar return which is determined to be not a part of the bottom is shown between the surface and the bottom. If this return is determined to be a fish, one of several fish shapes is drawn which indicate size, depth, and location of the fish (see Interpreting the Onscreen Information).

Figure B shows the default view when the Temp/Speed sensor is connected. Water surface temperature and boat speed are displayed at the lower right corner of the screen.

If the Tour Series determines that a Wide Side transducer is connected, the default view is shown in Figure C. Sonar information from both the left and right beams are shown.

As you learn the many capabilities and user preference functions of the Tour Series, additional screen configurations are possible. Figure D shows a view with "Small Digits" selected in the User Options menu. By selecting smaller digits for the depth, speed and temp information, more of the screen is available for the graphic representation of the sonar information. This effectively increases the display resolution of the Tour Series, allowing targets which are very close together to be displayed as separate symbols.

Another significant attribute of the Tour Series is its GPS capability. Equipped with Humminbird’s proprietary LakeMaster and Navionics maps, these devices allow users to navigate with confidence. The integration of GPS also enables the creation of custom waypoints, routes, and tracks, enhancing connectivity to fishing hotspots. The AutoChart Live feature lets anglers create real-time maps of their fishing spots that highlight depth contours and bottom hardness, offering a customized view of their fishing environment.

The Tour Series is built to withstand the demanding conditions of fishing. With a rugged design and a bright, sunlight-readable display, these fish finders ensure visibility in various environments. The touchscreen interface is intuitive and responsive, allowing for easy adjustments on the fly. Additionally, the models are equipped with a robust transducer system that can achieve impressive depths and deliver accurate readings even in challenging waters.

The integration of the 360 Imaging feature is another standout characteristic. This capability offers a complete panoramic view of the water around the boat, providing additional data on fish and structure location. The ability to see a complete picture of the surroundings allows anglers to make better decisions in real time.

Lastly, the Tour Series doesn’t compromise on connectivity. With built-in Bluetooth and networking capabilities, anglers can connect multiple devices simultaneously and share data seamlessly. Whether you are monitoring multiple fishing rods or collaborating with fellow anglers, the Tour Series provides the tools necessary to enhance your fishing excursions.

In summary, the Humminbird Tour Series combines advanced sonar technology, comprehensive GPS mapping, durable construction, and connectivity features, making it a leader in the fishing electronics market.
