Adjust Settings While You Fish - Humminbird HELIX Series Operation Manual

Adjust Settings while you Fish

The X-Press Menu provides menu options to adjust the sensitivity and range as you fish. You can also control how fast the sonar
history scrolls down the screen. The menu options allow you to see more or less of the sonar returns from the transducer beams
as you adjust each setting. Also, you can use key shortcuts on the view.
Adjust Sensitivity
Sensitivity controls how much detail is shown on the view. You can adjust sensitivity from the X-Press Menu or the Enhance menu
(see Enhance the Side Imaging View). The sensitivity can also be adjusted using the +/− ZOOM keys.
Decrease the sensitivity to eliminate the clutter from the display that is sometimes present in murky or muddy water. When
operating in very clear water or greater depths, increase the sensitivity to see weaker returns.
Adjust the Sensitivity using the X-Press Menu
1. Side Imaging X-Press Menu: With a Side Imaging View displayed on-screen, press the MENU key once.
2. Select SI Sensitivity.
3. Press the RIGHT or LEFT Cursor keys to increase or decrease the sensitivity.
Adjust the Sensitivity using the ZOOM Keys
If your control head includes +/−ZOOM keys, you can use them to adjust the sensitivity.
