Humminbird Wide View manual

When you exit the "System Options" menu, the view you will see on-screen is shown (bottom, left).

Viewing both left and right sides simultaneously gives you an excellent tool when searching for bait fish or following a creek bed, however greater display resolution can be achieved by viewing only one side.

Experiment with the Wide Side transducer while operating it in a familiar area and learn how to make maximum use of the information displayed. Remember, if you are using a trolling

motor mount, the information displayed is controlled by the direction the trolling motor is pointing, not necessarily the direction the boat is travelling.

The information collected is controlled through the "Transducer" menu. The UP and DOWN arrow keys select "left", "right" or "both". Pressing ENTER will select the "down" mode and a traditional down view will be displayed. When "down" mode is selected, the single 24 degree down-looking element of the Wide Side transducer is used to collect this information. Unlike the dual beam transducer, the Wide Side transducer does not have "wide", "narrow" or "dual" beam options.

The "Range" menu in Wide Side must be used to control the range manually, as the bottom is not always visible on-screen. Ranges of 15, 30, 60, and 120 feet are available.

"Zoom" has no function in Wide Side mode and the menu will not be present.

The "ID" menu is not present in Wide Side mode. Fish are displayed as three different size fish symbols, there are no hollow fish symbols to give directional information.
