Humminbird HELIX 5 SERIES Operation Manual page 93

Lower Range sets the deepest depth range that will be displayed by the unit.
Auto: The Lower Range will be adjusted by the unit to follow the bottom automatically. Auto is
the default setting.
Manual: You can adjust the Lower Range to lock the unit on a particular depth. Adjust the Upper
and Lower Range together to view a specific depth range, especially when looking for fish or
bottom structure.
NOTE: A minimum distance of 10 feet will be maintained between the Upper and Lower Range regardless
of the manual settings entered.
The available Lower Range settings are determined by your Humminbird model as follows:
• HELIX SONAR GPS: Auto to 1500 ft, Auto to 500 m (International Models only);
Default = Auto
• HELIX DI GPS: Auto to 600 ft, Auto to 240 m (International Models only); Default = Auto
• HELIX XD GPS: Auto to 2500 ft, Auto to 760 m (International Models only); Default = Auto
Color Palette sets the colors used to display sonar returns in the Circular Flasher View when Ice
Fishing Mode is turned on. The active color palette is shown in the center of the circular flasher
display. The color palettes range from weak to strong sonar return signals, which are displayed
left to right on the color preview bar. See Views: Circular Flasher View for more information.
Choose from the following color palettes:
Palette 1: Green (weak), Yellow (medium), Red (strong)
Palette 2: Yellow (weak), Green (medium), Red (strong)

Reset XTE is available during navigation. When it is selected, the cross track error (XTE) will be
recalculated from the boat's current position to the next waypoint in the route.
For example, when you've deviated from a route to navigate around an island, select Reset XTE
to update the unit's course calculations from the current boat position instead of from the
previous waypoint in the route.
