Fish Position information pane description

The Fish Position information pane shows the position of the detected single fish echoes.
The current ping (largest circles) and the three previous ping (smaller circles) are shown.
The view is "from above". The colours indicate the echo strength.
Prerequisites
The Fish Position information pane only works when you use a split-beam transducer.
How to open
To open the Fish Position information pane, click in the chosen view to activate
it, then select the button on the top bar. To close the information
Fish Position
pane, select the button on the top bar one more time. You can also select
Close
in the top right corner of the pane.
Description
Each circle in the information pane identifies
a single fish. You can observe how these move
through the ES80 beam. The colours of the
circles are the same as the colours used in the
colour scale, and these indicate the echo strength
from each fish.
Tip
This information pane can be useful during
trawling. Keep an eye on the Fish Position
information pane to make sure that you can
manoeuvre the trawl through the areas with most
fish.
