Water Type (Advanced); Connected Transducer - Humminbird 598ci Operation Manual

NOTE: If the bottom is deeper than the Max Depth setting, the digital depth
readout will flash, indicating that the Fishfinder cannot locate the bottom.
Water Type configures your unit for operation in fresh or salt water. In salt water,
you can also choose the shallow or deep setting. The Water Type menu option is
available when User Mode is set to Advanced (see Main Menu: User Mode).
NOTE: Make sure that the Water Type is set accurately, especially in salt
water, as this affects the accuracy of deep water depth readings. In salt water,
what would be considered a large fish might be 2 to 10 times bigger than a
large fish in fresh water (depending on the type of fish you are seeking). The
salt water setting allows for a greater range in fish size adjustment to account
for this difference.
Connected Transducer allows you to choose which connected transducer you
want to use. When you choose a transducer, the corresponding features will be
automatically added to your Fishfinder.
Your Fishfinder will default to the Compact SideScan Transducer, which
combines Side Imaging® and DualBeam PLUS™ technology.
