Selecting the Background Color
Five colors are available for the sonar display background –
black, dark gray, light gray, white, and dark blue. The color you
select is used on all the sounder windows (scrolling bottom,
Zoom, Bottom Lock, and A-Scope).
You will probably find that you need to change the background
color in different light conditions. For example, a white back-
ground is probably easiest to see in bright sunlight, but a black
background may be preferable at night.
To change the background color:
1. Press the MULTI key to display the soft key control.
2. Press the COLOR SETTINGS soft key.
3. Press the BGROUND COLOR soft key. The background color soft
keys are displayed below a pallet of available colors. The selected
color is highlighted.
4. Press the left or right BACKGROUND COLOR soft key until the
desired color is highlighted.
The sounder display changes, so you can see the effect as you
change the background color.
5. Press ENTER or CLEAR twice to return to the MULTI soft keys.
Selecting the Color Threshold
You use the color threshold control to determine the minimum
echo strength that is displayed. Each range of echo strengths is
displayed in a color as shown in the color bar; you select the min-
imum strength that is displayed by blanking echo colors below the
required minimum.
If you blank a color, the corresponding echoes are displayed in the
background color. You can remove up to six colors, but you can-
not remove the strongest color.
The color threshold you select is used on all the sounder windows
(scrolling bottom, Zoom, Bottom Lock, and A-Scope).
To change the color threshold:
1. Press the MULTI key to display the soft key controls.
2. Press the COLOR SETTINGS soft key.
