Live Mode; Saved Mode - Lowrance HDS Gen2 Touch Operator's Manual

Live mode

Displays the last few minutes of the Side Imaging history
as a trail behind the vessel icon. The length of this trail
will vary depending on the Side Imaging and Down Im-
aging range settings. The higher the range settings the
longer the history length that will show up behind the
vessel icon. Typically, it will display the last 4-5 minutes
of recording. Live mode allows the user to quickly iden-
tify interesting areas of the lake and how they relate to
vessel position. It also allows the user to scroll back and
zoom in on a recently scanned areas of the lake to look
at additional details of what was scanned. Live mode
does not save any data. If the unit is turned off, all recent
sonar history is lost.

Saved mode

Displays StructureMap (.smf ) files that have been created from struc-
ture sonar log (.sl2) files. Saved mode is used to view a map of the
underwater environment that can be reviewed and examined either
on or off of the water. It can be used when revisiting an area that
has already been scanned in order to assist the user in positioning
the vessel or locating specific points of interest.
