Applying Proper TVG

The TVG function is the same as the one explained in the sonar mode. For best re-
sults, set both TVG level and time a little lower than the ones in the sonar mode. The
setting is mode on the BOTTOM/3D menu screen and the usual setting for both time
and level is 3.
TVG level rejects surface noise, which may mask shallow targets and TVG time adjust
the effective depth.

Rejecting Interference and Noise

While observing the picture, you may encounter occasional or intermittent noise and
interference as shown below. This is mostly caused by onboard electronic equipment,
engine, propeller noise, or electrical noise from other sonars being operated nearby.
Turn on the interference rejector (IR) in the SONAR menu to reduce or eliminate the
interference.
