The images at the right of the screen are the most recent echoes. Some echoes
indicate fish and others show the bottom. Bottom structure features, such as a
reef or shipwreck will also be indicated.
The sonar screen includes a status bar displaying transducer frequency and gain
settings. The display can also show upper and lower depth limits, and depth lines
if required.
As with all of H6's applications, the sonar can be customized to let you choose
how the image is displayed and what information is displayed. For example, you
can set the scroll speed of the bottom graph and the range can be changed to
adjust the depth of water displayed.

Displaying sonar

To display sonar:
Click Sonar on the button bar. The Sonar will open in a new window.

Changing the screen

You can change the background color, scrolling speed and whether or not the
depth of fish echoes is displayed on the screen.

Background color

The background color you select for the primary sonar page will be used on all
other sonar pages (zoom, bottom-lock and A-scope). You will probably find that
you need to change the background color in different light conditions. For
example, a white background is probably easier to see in bright sunlight, but a
black background may be preferable at night.
