1.9 Choosing

Picture

Advance Speed

The picture advance speed determines
how quickly the vertical scan lines run
across the screen. When choosing a
picture advance speed, keep in mind
that a fast advance speed will expand
the size of the fish school horizontally
on the screen and a slow advance
speed will contract it. Note that the
picture is not refreshed when picture
advancement is stopped. Therefore,
use caution when steering the vessel
under this condition.
