- Pic. Advance
-
Allows the sonar picture to advance faster by drawing more than one column of data on the screen for each column of sonar data received. This is especially helpful when you are using the sonar in deep water, because the sonar signal takes longer to travel to the water bottom and back to the transducer.
The 1/1 setting draws one column of information on the screen per sonar return. The 2/1 setting draws two columns of information on the screen per sonar return, and so on for the 4/1 and 8/1 settings.
