AUTOMATIC

When the X-65 is first turned on, the
Automatic feature is enabled. This is
indicated by the word "AUTO" at the
top of the screen. The Automatic fea-
ture adjusts the sensitivity and range
so the bottom signal is displayed in the
lower half of the screen at all times.
To turn Automatic off, first press the
MENU key, then press the up or down
arrow keys until the "AUTO" menu
appears. Press the left arrow key to
switch to the manual mode. The letters "Man" appear at the top of the
screen, indicating the unit is in the manual mode. To turn Automatic on,
repeat the above steps to get the auto menu, then press the right arrow
key.

SENSITIVITY

The sensitivity controls the ability of the unit to pick up echoes. A low
sensitivity level excludes much of the bottom information, fish signals, and
other target information. High sensitivity levels enables you to see this
detail, but it can also clutter the screen
with many undesired signals. Typi-
cally, the best sensitivity level shows
a good solid bottom signal with
Grayline and some surface clutter.
When the X-65 is in the Automatic
mode, the sensitivity is automatically
adjusted to keep a solid bottom signal
displayed, plus a little more. This gives
it the capability to show fish and other
detail.
However, situations occur where it
becomes necessary to increase or decrease the sensitivity. This typically
happens when you wish to see more detail, so an increase in sensitivity
is indicated. The procedure to adjust it is the same whether the unit is in
the automatic or manual mode.
To adjust the sensitivity, press the MENU key, then press the up or down
arrow keys until the "SENS" menu appears as shown above.
