Indications on the single frequency display
Note: The water temperature display requires an appropriate water temperature sensor. It
can be turned on or off with TEMPERATURE GRAPH on the SOUNDER MENU.
Selecting transmission frequency
The single frequency display shows either the LF (low frequency) picture or HF (high
frequency) picture. To select transmission frequency, press the FREQ LF/HF soft key. “LF”
or “HF” is highlighted on its key label with each press of the key.
Dual-frequency display
The dual-frequency display provides both
LF and HF pictures. This display is useful
for comparing the same picture with two
different sounding frequencies.
LF picture
The sounder uses ultrasonic pulses to
detect bottom conditions. The lower the
frequency of the pulse, the wider the
detection area. Therefore, the low
frequency is useful for general detection and judging bottom condition.
