Adjusting the position of the zoomed area
When the zoom function is selected, the system automatically
selects the zoom position so that the bottom details are always in
the lower half of the display. If required you can reposition the por-
tion of the image to be zoomed so that an alternative area is
displayed.
To set the zoom position
1. Press the ZOOM softkey.
2. Select MAN with the ZOOM POSITION softkey.
3. Reposition the zoomed image using the rotary controller.
4. Press OK.
Bottom lock and bottom shift
The Bottom Lock function applies a filter to flatten the image of the
seabed and make any objects on or just above it easier to discern.
This feature is particularly useful for finding fish that feed close to
the bottom.
Bottom Lock is selected for individual fishfinder windows and can
replace or appear alongside the standard fishfinder image.
Adjusting the range of the bottom lock image allows you to view
more bottom details. You can also reposition the image on screen
to anywhere between the bottom of the window (0%) and the mid-
dle of the window (50%) by using the Bottom Shift control.

Using A-Scope to view a live image
The standard fishfinder display shows a historical record of fish-
finder echoes. If required, you can display a live image of the
bottom structure and the fish directly below the transducer by using
the A-Scope feature. The width of the bottom area covered by the
A-Scope is indicated by the number at the bottom of the window.
