Understanding Sonar - Garmin GPSMAP 276C Owner's Manual

Changing the Temperature Display
The graph will adjust and show the temperatures changes according
to the Temperature Scale and Time Duration settings.
Temperature Scale—select a degree span from the list. Select Auto
to have the unit automatically determine the best range, or select a
span of 2, 4, 6, 8, or 10 degrees.
Time Duration—set how fast or slow the temperature log scrolls; a
shorter time duration means a faster temperature log scroll. Select a
duration from 1 minute to 2.5 hours.
Resetting the Temperature Graph
To reset the scale range for the temperature graph, press MENU,
highlight Reset Auto Scale, and press ENTER. This is useful
when the scale spans a large range due to extreme temperature
changes. You can reset the scale only when you select Auto for the
Temperature Scale.
To restore the temperature graph to defaults, press MENU, highlight
Restore Default, and press ENTER.

Understanding Sonar

The transducer mounted on your vessel transmits sound waves
toward the bottom of the water in a cone-shaped pattern. When
a transmitted sound wave strikes an underwater object—such as
the bottom, a structure, or a fish—sound is reflected back to the
transducer. The transducer collects the reflected sound waves and
sends the data to the GSD 20 Sounder Module and then to the
GPSMAP 276C to be processed and displayed. The underwater data
is shown on the Sonar display in the order that it is returned; first
returned is the first on the display.
