seconds.

How to Select the Picture Advance Speed

Picture advance speed determines how quickly the scan is displayed on the screen,
from right to left. When selecting a picture advance speed, keep in mind that a fast
speed will expand the echoes horizontally, while a slow speed will contract the
echoes.
1. With the Echo Sounder display mode active, press the FAST SCAN key
The [Pic. Advance] popup window appears.
2. Press the FAST SCAN key to cycle through the settings, or press the Cursor Pad
to select the appropriate speed setting.
The FAST SCAN key cycles though the settings in the following order:
1/1
Note: When using the CursorPad to select the speed, the cursor stops at the high-
est setting (2/1) and the lowest setting (1/8).
The default setting for picture advance is 1/1.
