Humminbird Wide 3D Vista - Manual (Page 38)

The information collected is controlled by pressing the VIEW button. Pressing VIEW toggles the
options "both", "right', "left", or "dwn" (down). When the "dwn" mode is selected, the single 24
degree down-looking element of the Wide Side transducer is used to collect this information. This
transducer does not have "wide", "narrow", or "dual" beam options and hollow fish symbols
cannot be displayed.
The "Range" menu (below) in Wide Side must be used to control the range manually, as the
bottom is not always visible on-screen. Ranges of 15, 30, 60, and 120 feet are available.
"Zoom" has no function in Wide Side mode and the menu will not be present.
ID menu functions are slightly different in "wide side" and "down" modes. In the "wide side" mode
ID+ is not an option, and all fish are displayed as medium, sized fish symbols. In the "down"
mode ID+ is available, and fish are displayed in three sizes.
Most other menu functions work the same in Wide Side mode as with the standard dual beam
transducer. "Bottom Alarm", "Fish Alarm", and "Sensitivity" have the same effect.
"Triplog" is available, if the speed and temperature accessory is connected.
To return to the normal "down" operation using the standard 3D transducer, you must reconnect
the 3D transducer (by replacing the Wide Side connectors) or use the switch to select the 3D
transducer. Next, configure the unit by selecting the "down" mode under the "System Options"
menu.
Note: The "sonar mode" must always be configured to match the type of transducer being used.
