ADVANCED SONAR OPERATION

Tracking a Fish School (target lock)

Target lock, which requires speed and heading inputs, automatically tracks a
fixed location (such as a reef) so that you won’t lose sight of it on the display
screen.

1. On the sonar display, operate the trackball to place the trackball mark on the

location you want to track.

2. Press the [TARGET LOCK] key.

The target lock mark appears ( ) on the echo selected and the bearing
mark bisects the echo. Horizontal range, depth and bearing to the target
appear at the bottom right hand corner of the sonar display. Note that target
lock is automatically cancelled when the echo moves 1.5 times the range in
use.
