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.
