Views

The views available on your 300 Series™ Fishing System are:

• Sonar View
• Zoom View
• 200/83 kHz Split Sonar View
• Big Digits View
• Circular Flasher View.

Sonar View is the default view. When the VIEW key is pressed, the display cycles
through the available views. When the EXIT key is pressed, the display cycles
through the available views in reverse order. Any view can be hidden or displayed as
part of the view rotation using the Views Menu tab.

NOTE: When you change any menu settings that affect the sonar, the view will update
immediately (i.e. you don’t have to exit the menu to apply the change to the screen).

Sonar View

Sonar View presents a historical log of sonar returns. Depth is always displayed.
Readouts for temperature and speed are automatically displayed if the appropriate
accessory is connected. The most recent sonar returns are charted on the right side
of the window; as new information is received, the older information is moved
across the display to the left. A Digital Depth Readout is displayed in the upper left
corner. A scale with Upper and Lower Depth Range readouts appears along the right
edge of the Sonar View. The scale indicates the distance from the surface of the
water to a depth range sufficient to show the bottom. Depth Range is automatically
selected to keep the bottom visible on the display, although you can adjust it
manually as well (see Sonar X-Press

TM

Menu). Five additional Digital Readouts display

information from optional-purchase accessories.

These information boxes can be customized to show only the information desired
(see Setup Menu Tab, Select Readouts).

NOTE: If the Depth number is flashing, it means that the unit is having trouble locating
the bottom. This usually happens if the water is too deep, the transducer is out of the
water, the boat is moving too fast, or for any other reason that the unit can’t accurately
receive continuous data.
