Chart Speed
Chart Speed determines the speed at which the
sonar information moves acrossthe display, and consequently the amountof detail
shown. A faster speed shows more information and is preferred by most anglers;
however, the sonar information moves across the display quickly. A slower speed
keeps theinformation onthedisplay longer,but thebottom andfish detailsbecome
compressed and maybe difficult to interpret. Regardless of theChart Speed setting,
the RTS® Window will update at the maximum rate possible for the depth
conditions. Adjust Chart Speed to your personal preference.
To adjust the Chart Speed:
1. Highlight Chart Speed on the Sonar X-Press
TM
Menu.
2. Use the LEFT orRIGHT 4-WAYCursor Control keysto increaseor decreasethe
Chart Speed setting. (1-9, Ultra, where 1 = Slow, 9 = Fast, Ultra = Fastest,
Default = 5)
Bottom View
Bottom View selects the method used to represent
bottom and structure on the display.
Inverse represents weak returns as dark pixels and strong returns as lighter pixels.

Structure ID® represents weak returns as light pixels and strong returns as dark
pixels. This has the benefit of ensuring that strong returns will be clearly visible on
the display.
WhiteLine® highlights the strongest sonar returns in white resulting in a distinctive
outline. This has the benefit of clearly defining the bottom on the display.
Bottom Black displays all pixels below the bottom contour as black, regardless of
signal strength. This has the benefit of providing a high contrast between the
bottom and other sonar returns on the display. Any targets such as fish, structure
and thermoclines will be shown using the Structure ID® method.
