Split-Screen Frequency

You can view two frequencies from the split frequency screen.
Flasher
The flasher shows sonar information on a circular depth scale,
indicating what is beneath your boat. It is organized as a ring
that starts at the top and progresses clockwise. Depth is
indicated by the scale inside the ring. Sonar information flashes
on the ring when it is received at the depth indicated. The colors
indicate different strengths of the sonar return.
Select Flasher.

readings on the right side of the screen, and a magnified portion
of that graph on the left side of the screen.

Selecting the Transducer Type
If you are connecting a transducer that was not included with the
device, you may need to set the transducer type to make the
sonar function properly. Before connecting the transducer, you
should select the transducer type. The transducer name should
be listed on the label on the transducer cable, near the
connector.
This device is compatible with a range of accessory transducers,
including Garmin ClearVü transducers, which are available at
garmin.com/transducers.

Select an option:
• If you have a 200/77 kHz, dual-beam transducer, select
Dual Beam (200/77 kHz).
• If you have a 200/50 kHz, dual-frequency transducer,
select Dual Frequency (200/50 kHz).
• If you have another type of transducer, select it from the
list.

Sonar Frequencies

NOTE: The frequencies available depend on the chartplotter,
sounder modules, and transducer being used.
Adjusting the frequency helps adapt the sonar for your particular
goals and the present depth of the water.
Higher frequencies use narrow beam widths, and are better for
high-speed operation and rough sea conditions. Bottom
