Limit Search

The Limit Search command helps you maintain maximum chart detail

when you are moving fast in deep water (about 200 feet). When turned

on, Limit Search prevents the digital sonar from over-riding the sonar

chart's depth range setting.
Limit Search does this by preventing the digital sonar from slowing

down the ping speed as it automatically searches for and tracks the

bottom. The default setting is off, and this should fit most freshwater

fishing situations.
High boat speed and slow ping speed (caused by the deeper bottom) can

reduce the screen refresh rate. This in turn can reduce the amount of

detail seen on the sonar chart. Try this command only if you are in

deep water, traveling at high speed, and notice a reduction in detail on

the sonar chart. When Limit Search is turned on, the digital sonar will

limit its search for the bottom to the depth range you have set for the

sonar chart.
NOTE:

Turning Limit Search on can cause the digital sonar to lose the bot-

tom in some situations. The digital depth will flash if that occurs.
