cy and chirp width. This function is useful for adjusting the frequen-
cy in the following conditions.
• Set the frequency according to targeted fish species.
• Shift the frequency to reduce interference.
• Lower the frequency to increase detection range, decrease chirp
width.
• Raise the frequency to raise the resolution (when viewing a
school of fish), widen chirp width.
To adjust the frequency do as follows:
1) Click the (
