ID "OFF" disables the units interpretation of targets, and displays the "raw" sonar information as it
is received. Advanced users may prefer this type of presentation, so they can make there own
interpretation from the information displayed.


Scroll

Scroll Rate controls the update rate of the display. There are
five rate settings available. You may speed up or slow down the
rate to match your personal preference. To present the most
accurate representation of the terrain beneath your boat, the
scroll rate of the display should be approximately synchronized
to the speed of the boat. If your boat is stationary, or moving
slowly, select a slower scroll rate, and if you typically operate
the boat at high speeds, use a faster scroll rate.






ADVANCED FEATURES

ADVANCED OPERATION


The Wide Eye contains the unique ability to be adaptable in operation to match the experience
level of the user. Users inexperienced in the operation of the Wide Eye should use the factory
"Normal" setting. As your experience increases, you will benefit from many of the changes that
occur when "Advanced" operating mode is selected. The selection is made in the System Menu
and affects the following changes:

The base screen layout is modified to make the maximum
number of vertical pixels available for the active depth range.
To accomplish this, symbols such as Sensitivity setting, and
Fish Alarm indicators, are removed. The number of vertical
pixels used in the range determine the units ability to
separate targets which are close together, or close to the
bottom. When the number of pixels in a given range is
increased, the distance represented by each pixel is
decreased.

When a menu adjustment is made, the menu goes off-screen
in approximately half the normal time. This lets the
experienced user make adjustments, then quickly return to
full-screen viewing.
These changes are designed to make the maximum use of
the available screen resolution, and speed up operations that

restrict the view of the bottom.

Wide Side is an accessory transducer that gives your Wide Eye the capability of collecting sonar
information from either side of your boat. Side-looking sonar is extremely valuable for bank
fishing, or looking for bait fish in open water.
