Tilt Angle

The tilt angle shows the direction to which the sound wave is emitted. When the sound
wave is emitted horizontally, the tilt angle is said to be 0° and when vertically, 90°. The
tilt angle can be set between -5° (upward) to 90° (downward), in increments of 1°.

How to set the tilt angle

To manually set a tilt angle, operate the TILT control. Watch the tilt angle indication
and tilt angle indicator is momentarily displayed in large characters at the top of the
screen. The tilt angle is always displayed next to "T" at the top right hand corner of the
screen.
Select the tilt angle depending on target fish. For surface fish select a shallow angle
(about 5°) and for bottom fish, a deep angle.
