Upper Range
(Advanced: Sonar, Split Sonar and Big Digits Views Only)
Upper Range sets the shallowest depth range that will be displayed on the Sonar, Split Sonar and
Big Digits Views. The Upper Range menu choice is available when User Mode is set to Advanced
(see Setup Menu Tab: User Mode) and can only be accessed from the Sonar, Split Sonar and Big
Digits Views. Upper Range is often used with Lower Range.
NOTE: A minimum distance of 10 feet will be maintained between the Upper and Lower Range
regardless of the manual settings entered.
To adjust the Upper Range:
1. Make sure you are in Advanced Mode, then highlight Upper Range on the Sonar
X-Press™ Menu.
2. Use the LEFT or RIGHT 4-WAY Cursor Control keys to increase or decrease the Upper Range
setting. (0 to 990 feet or 0 to 327 meters [International Models Only], Default = 0)
For example, if you are only interested in the area between 20 and 50 feet deep,
you should set the Upper Depth Range to 20 and the Lower Depth Range to 50.
The Sonar View will then show the 30 foot area between 20 and 50, and will not
show the surface or the bottom (assuming the bottom is deeper than 50 feet), and
will show greater detail for that area between 20 and 50 feet.

Sensitivity
Sensitivity controls how much detail is shown on the display.
Increasing the sensitivity shows more sonar returns from small baitfish and suspended debris
in the water; however, the display may become too cluttered. When operating in very clear
water or greater depths, increased sensitivity shows weaker returns that may be of interest.
Decreasing the sensitivity eliminates the clutter from the display that is sometimes present in
murky or muddy water. If Sensitivity is adjusted too low, the display may not show many
sonar returns that could be fish.
T
o adjust the Sensitivity:
1. Highlight Sensitivity on the Sonar X-Press™ menu.
2. Use the LEFT or RIGHT 4-WAY Cursor Control keys to increase or decrease the Sensitivity
setting. (Low = 1, High = 20, Default = 10)
Sensitivity at Medium Sensitivity at HighSensitivity at Low
