Sonar Views

The sonar views available vary depending on the type of

transducer and optional sounder module connected to the

chartplotter. For example, you can view the Split Frequency

view only if you have a dual-frequency transducer connected.

There are four basic styles of sonar views available: a full-

screen view, a split-screen view that combines two or more

views, a split-zoom view, and a split-frequency view that

displays two different frequencies. You can customize the

settings for each view in the screen. For example, if you are

viewing the split-frequency view, you can separately adjust the

gain for each frequency.

Traditional Sonar View

There are several full-screen views available, depending on the

equipment connected.

Sonar

The full-screen Traditional sonar view show a large image of the

sonar readings from a transducer. The range scale along the

right side of the screen shows the depth of detected objects as

the screen scrolls from the right to the left.

DownVü Sonar View

NOTE: Not all models support DownVü sonar technology and

transducers.

NOTE: To receive DownVü scanning sonar, you need a

compatible chartplotter or fishfinder and a compatible

transducer.

DownVü high-frequency sonar provides a clearer picture below

the boat, providing a more detailed representation of structures

the boat is passing over.

Traditional transducers emit a conical beam. The DownVü

scanning sonar technology emits a narrow beam, similar to the

shape of the beam in a copying machine. This beam provides a

clearer, picture-like image of what is beneath the boat.

SideVü Sonar View

NOTE: Not all models support SideVü sonar and scanning

transducers.

SideVü scanning sonar technology shows you a picture of what

lies to the sides of the boat. You can use this as a search tool to

find structures and fish.

SideVü/DownVü Scanning Technology

Instead of a more common conical beam, the SideVü/DownVü

transducer uses a flat beam to scan the water and ground to the

sides of your boat.
