Different sonar views can help you view the fish in the area. The
sonar views available vary depending on the type of transducer
and sounder module connected to the chartplotter. For example,
you can view certain Garmin ClearVü
have a compatible Garmin ClearVü transducer connected.
There are four basic styles of sonar views available: a full-
screen view, a split-screen view that combines two or more
views, a split-zoom view, and a split-frequency view that
displays two different frequencies. You can customize the
settings for each view in the screen. For example, if you are
viewing the split-frequency view, you can separately adjust the
gain for each frequency.

Traditional Sonar View

There are several full-screen views available, depending on the
transducer that is connected.
The full-screen Traditional sonar view shows a large image of
the sonar readings from a transducer. The range scale along the
right side of the screen shows the depth of detected objects as
the screen scrolls from the right to the left.

Garmin ClearVü high-frequency sonar provides a detailed
picture of the fishing environment around the boat in a detailed
representation of structures the boat is passing over.
Traditional transducers emit a conical beam. The Garmin
ClearVü scanning sonar technology emits two narrow beams,
similar to the shape of the beam in a copying machine. These
beams provide a clearer, picture-like image of what is beneath
the boat.
