Freeze Frame
Freeze Frame - Pressing any arrow on the 4-WAY Cursor Control key will freeze the screen and a
cursor will be displayed on the screen. The cursor can be positioned on the display using the
4-WAY Cursor Control key to determine the depth of any sonar return. The RTS® Window
continues to update in Freeze Frame. In addition, see the effects of menu setting changes with
Instant Image Update. Pressing EXIT will exit Freeze Frame and the display will start to scroll.
Freeze Frame is available in the Sonar, Sonar Zoom, and 200/83 kHz Split Sonar Views.
Bottom Presentation
As the boat moves, the unit charts the changes in depth on the display to create a profile of the
Bottom Contour. The type of bottom can be determined from the return charted on the display. A
Hard Bottom such as compacted sediment or flat rock appears as a thinner line across the display.
A Soft Bottom such as mud or sand appears as a thicker line across the display. Rocky Bottoms
have a broken, random appearance.
The sonar returns from the bottom, structure and fish can be represented as either Inverse
(default), WhiteLine®, Structure ID®, or Bottom Black. See Sonar X-Press™ Menu: Bottom View for
details on how to set the bottom view.

Understanding Sonar History
It is important to understand the significance of the 700 Series™
Fishing System display. The display does NOT show a literal
3-dimensional representation of what is under the water. Each
vertical band of data received by the control head and plotted on
the display represents something that was detected by a sonar
return at a particular time. As both the boat and the targets (fish)
may be moving, the returns are only showing a particular
segment of time when objects were detected, not exactly where
those objects are in relation to other objects shown on the display.
Real Time Sonar (RTS®) Window
AReal Time Sonar (RTS®) Window appears on the right side of the display in the Sonar View only.
The RTS® Window always updates at the fastest rate possible for depth conditions and shows only
the returns from the bottom, structure and fish that are within the transducer beam. The RTS®
Window plots the depth and intensity of a sonar return. (See Sonar Menu: RTS® Window) .
The Narrow RTS® Window
indicates the sonar intensity
through the use of grayscale.
The grayscale used matches
the bottom view grayscale
setting used in the sonar
history window (i.e. Inverse,
StructureID®, WhiteLine®,
Bottom Black). The depth of
the sonar return is indicated
by the vertical placement of
the return on the display
depth scale.
The Wide RTS® Window in-
dicates the sonar intensity
through the use of a bar
graph. The length of the
plotted return provides an
indication of whether the
return is weak or strong. The
depth of the sonar return is
indicated by the vertical
placement of the return on
the display depth scale. The
Wide RTS® Window does not
make use of grayscale.
