Surface noise Color bar Bottom Color Bar The color bar shows the relation between echo intensity and echo color on the screen. The top color (reddish brown) is the strongest color and the lower colors the weakest.

  • Page 68: Zero Line

    Zero Line The zero line represents the transducer’s position. It moves off the screen when a shifted range is used, or is shown at draft depth when ship’s draft is entered. Bottom Echoes Bottom echoes are normally strongest and displayed in reddish brown or red, but colors and width will vary with bottom material, depth, sea condition, installation, frequency, pulselength and sensitivity.

  • Page 69: Fish Schools

    Bottom nature The nature of the bottom is known from the intensity and length of the bottom tail. Generally, when observing the bottom nature, the lower sounding frequency is used, the pulselength is set to long, and the gain setting is not disturbed. In the hard and craggy bottom, the bottom appears more reddish and with a long tail.
