Suspended targets (fish) Garmin ClearVü high-frequency scanning sonar provides a detailed picture of the fishing environment around the boat in a detailed representation of Depth line structures the boat is passing over.
ClearVü Scanning Sonar The Garmin ClearVü scanning sonar technology takes one step further by emitting two narrow beams with CHIRP technology, similar to the shape of the beam in a copying machine.
Shift-Zoom View On the sonar screen, you can see a full-view graph of sonar readings on the right side of the screen, and a magnified portion of that graph on the left side of the screen. Shift allows you to set the depth range on which the sonar is focused. This allows you to zoom in a higher resolution in the focused depth.
Adjusting the Zoom Bottom Lock You can lock the screen to the water bottom. For example, if you select a You can adjust the zoom manually by specifying the span and a fixed starting span of 20 meters, the device shows an area from the water bottom to 20 depth.
Shift Zoom Adjust the zoom range This is a unique sonar zoom technology from Garmin. It displays the selected depth and range of sonar to fill the left-side of the screen in more accuracy and detail. In the Shift Zoom mode the fishfinder CPU only processes the sonar signals received from the selected depth range.
