Water Type (Advanced); Digital Depth Source (Advanced, Down Imaging® Models With Optional-Purchase Transducers Only [1159Ci Hd Di]) - Humminbird 1100 Series Operation Manual

Max Depth controls the down beam reading. The SI Range (Side Imaging® Range) controls the
side beams and down beam reading at the same time. If SI Range is set to a deeper range than
the Max Depth setting, your 1199ci HD SI Combo will default to the SI Range setting. For
example, if you set the Max Depth to 50 feet and then set the SI Range to 150 feet, your unit
will acquire bottom readings from 150 feet (see Side Imaging® X-Press™ Menu: SI Range).
Water Type configures your unit for operation in fresh or salt water. In salt water, you can also
choose the shallow or deep setting.
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.
Digital Depth Source specifies the beams that will be used to provide the depth for the digital
depth readouts (see Views and Setup Menu Tab: Select Readouts for more information). It is
important to set this menu option based on the transducer that is connected to the control head,
as follows:
• If a Down Imaging® transducer is connected to the control head, select Auto.
Depending on the depth, Auto will automatically choose the 2D conical beams or the
Down Imaging® beams to display depth in the digital readout window. Auto is the
default setting.
• If an accessory transducer is connected to the control head, select 2D Element. For
example, if you connect an ice transducer to your Down Imaging® unit, change the
digital depth source to 2D Element in order to display depth in the digital readout
window. The 2D Element setting should not be used with a Down Imaging® transducer.
NOTE: Visit our Web site at humminbird.com to determine which accessory transducers are
compatible with your Humminbird® Fishing System, or contact our Customer Resource Center.
NOTE: When Digital Depth Source is set to 2D Element, the DI setting will be removed from the DI
Pings menu. When DI Pings is set to DI, the 2D Element setting will be removed from the Digital Depth
Source menu. See DI Pings for more information.
