A valuable accessory available for use with all Wide 3D products is Wide Side. Your unit has the
capability of displaying information from a special “side-locking” transducer as shown in Figure E.
See the “Advanced Feature” section for more information.
Using the View button to toggle between the three main views gives you the maximum benefit of
each type of view: The 3D view gives you an excellent representation of bottom terrain and
target location, The 2D view is best for determining bottom hardness and texture and locating
structure or bottom detail. The combo view combines both 3D and 2D views to provide the best of
both views.
USING THE 3D VIEW
At power-up, the Wide 3D Vision locates the bottom and adjusts the depth range to a setting
most appropriate for that depth. The bottom will usually be displayed about 2/3 of the way down
the display. Each of the six sonar beams transmits a signal at a rate of about four times per
second. The returned signals from each transmit are compared and evaluated before the
information is displayed, so each display update contains information gathered from several
transit and receive cycles.
