- Transmit Rate
-
Sets the length of time between sonar pings. Increasing the transmit rate increases the scroll speed, but it may also increase self-interference.
Reducing the transmit rate increases the spacing between transmit pulses and can resolve self-interference. This option is available on the Traditional sonar view only.
- Transmit Power
-
Reduces transducer ringing near the surface. A lower transmit power value reduces transducer ringing, but can also reduce the strength of the returns. This option is available on the Traditional sonar view only.
- Filter Width
-
Defines the edges of the target. A shorter filter more clearly defines the edges of the targets but may allow more noise. A longer filter creates softer target edges and may also reduce noise. This option is available on the Traditional sonar view only.
- Flip Left/Right
-
Switches the SideVü view orientation from left to right. This option is available on the SideVü sonar view only.
- Restore Sonar Defaults
-
Restores the sonar settings to the factory default values.
