GRAYLINE

Grayline
echoes. It "paints" gray on targets that are stronger than a
preset value. This allows you to tell the difference between a
hard and soft bottom. For example, a soft, muddy or weedy
bottom returns a weaker signal which is shown with a
narrow or no gray line. A hard bottom returns a strong
signal which causes a wide gray line.
If you have two signals of equal size, one with gray and the other
without, then the target with gray is the stronger signal. This helps
distinguish weeds from trees on the bottom, or fish from structure.
Grayline is adjustable. The factory default for this unit is 72 percent.
Since Grayline shows the difference between strong and weak signals,
adjusting the sensitivity may also require a different Grayline level.
The level chosen by the sonar unit at power on is usually adequate for
most conditions. Experiment with your unit to find the Grayline setting
that's best for you.
To change the Grayline level, press
Press
UP ARROW
decrease it. The percentage of Grayline in use shows in this menu.
Echoes scrolling onto the screen will also show the effects of the
Grayline change. If you reach the maximum or minimum level, a tone
sounds alerting you to the limits. Press
