What's on the MEGA 360 Imaging Display

MEGA 360 Imaging uses its unique transducer to provide an unobstructed view of the water around and below your boat. The razor-
thin, high-definition beams produce the detailed sonar data that you see on the display. MEGA 360 Imaging reveals a variety of
recognizable features so that you can interpret the structure and bottom contour, and the following items in this illustration.

J
Water Column: Shows the relative depth of the water under the boat at a given time. Variations in the width of the water
A
column show variations in the distance to the bottom as the boat passes over.

C
Topography Changes (light): The light part of the display shows where the beams are hitting hard bottom or rising terrain.
D
Topography Changes (dark): Dark parts of the display indicate soft bottom (sand, mud) or descending terrain.
E Range is the 360 Range setting. See Change the Sweep Speed and Range for more information.
F White streaks may indicate fish and a clouded area may indicate a bait ball.
G Boat Icon: The boat icon can be set to hidden or visible on the view. See Change the 360 View Display Settings.
H Sweep Line: As the sweep line rotates on the view, it reveals the sonar returns from the MEGA 360 Imaging beams.
I Structure: Possible vegetation where fish may be hiding.
J
Position: The boat's current latitude/longitude location determined by GPS.
K
Heading: The boat's heading measured in degrees from North, where 000° is North, 090° is East, 180° is South, and 270° is
West (compass/heading sensor required).
L Course: The current direction the boat is traveling measured in degrees from North, where 000° is North, 090° is East, 180° is
South, and 270° is West (GPS required).
M Speed: The measurement of the boat's progress across a given distance (GPS required).
N Depth: The depth of the water as provided by another attached transducer (see Set Up MEGA 360 on the Network).
