Frequency
Controls the transducer frequency used by the
unit. This unit supports three conventional sonar
frequencies: 50kHz, 83kHz and 200kHz.
200 kHz has the highest sensitivity and best target
discrimination in shallow water. 83 kHz oers a
wider cone angle for more water coverage. 50 kHz
provides the best depth penetration.
Ping Speed
Controls the rate the transducer uses to send sonar
waves into the water. Ping speed adjustments can
help reduce interference from other transducers.
When using shing modes, ping speed settings are
optimized for the selected shing conditions, so in
most cases, adjustments are not necessary.
NOTE: When using a custom range, you
may not receive any digital depth read-
ings, or you may receive incorrect depth
information.
