Present menu modes are available to suit your personal Angler Profile - whether
you’re a Normal User or Advanced User. These Angler Profile Presets
TM
provide an
Advanced Mode for users who desire the highest level of control over the product,
and Normal Mode for users who desire the greatest simplicity and fewest choices.
Choose the Setup Tab from the Main Menu system, choose User Mode, then change
the mode to Advanced to access advanced features. A range of additional options
will be displayed in the menu system. Any changes made while in Advanced Mode
will remain in effect if the unit is returned to Normal Mode. For example, if you set
specific views to be visible while in Advanced User Mode, and then return to Normal
User Mode, those views will still be visible.

The Sonar X-Press
TM
menu represents the settings most
frequently-used to optimize the sonar performance of the
Matrix unit. Press the MENU key once while in any of the
Sonar Views to access the following Sonar X-Press
TM
menu
items quickly when in Normal Mode:
Sensitivity provides advanced control over the sonar
receiver. The Matrix unit optimizes Sensitivity based on
depth and water conditions automatically; however, you
also may change it manually to match your preferences
or water conditions. Increasing the sensitivity shows
more sonar returns from small bait fish and suspended
debris in the water; however, the display may become
too cluttered in some water conditions. When operating
in very clear water or greater depths, increased sensitivity
shows fainter 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.

Beam Select selects the sonar beam used in the Sonar Views. When 200 kHz is selected,
the sonar returns and Fish ID+
TM
from the 200 kHz beam are displayed providing greater
bottom detail (typically from 2 feet to 800 feet) at any boat speed. Using 83 kHz, the
sonar returns and Fish ID+
TM
from the 83 kHz beam are displayed, providing greater
depth capability and showing more targets in its wider beam. The 83 kHz beam is not
recommended for use when the boat is traveling at greater than trolling speeds. When
200/83kHz is selected, the unit blends the sonar information from both beams together
on the display to provide the best sonar image and Fish ID+
TM
.
Lower Range adjusts the lower depth range to a specific depth for the Sonar and Big
Digits Views. Automatic is the default setting. Selecting a specific setting locks the
depth range into manual mode. Advanced anglers use both Upper and Lower Range
together to view a specific depth range manually when looking for fish or bottom
structure. The Upper Range menu choice is available when User Mode is set to
Advanced (see Advanced User Mode). will be displayed when you start
manually adjusting the Lower Range to indicate that you’re in Manual mode.
Chart Speed determines the speed at which the bottom information moves across the
display, and consequently the amount of detail shown. A faster speed shows more
information in the Sonar View and is preferred by most anglers; however,
the bottom moves across the display quickly. The highest setting is an ultrafast mode
that provides the highest chart speed possible by slowing down other
system functions. A slower speed keeps the information on the display longer, but the
bottom and fish detail becomes compressed and may be difficult to interpret.
Regardless of the Chart Speed setting, the RTS® Window will update at the maximum
rate possible for the depth conditions. Adjust Chart Speed to your personal preference.
Zoom Level sets the magnification level for the Sonar Zoom View.
