Resizing the Split Screen

You can adjust the way the split screen appears. This option is only

available when a zoom scale other than No Zoom is selected.

To resize the Sonar Page split screen:

MENU.

ROCKER, highlight Size Split, and press ENTER.

3. Move the horizontal double-arrow left or right using the

ROCKER until the vertical width line shows, then press

ENTER.

4. If you want to cancel this operation, press

QUIT or press

MENU, highlight Stop Resizing, and press ENTER.

Using the Pointer on the Sonar Page

You can show the pointer (arrow) to reference sonar items and

mark underwater waypoints. This makes it easier to find and use

an object such as a stump for a future fishing location. When using

this feature, the Sonar Page pauses. The depth continues to update

while the display is paused, but the unit does not show any new

sonar data until the Sonar Page resumes scrolling. You might see a

discontinuity from where the sonar information stops and where it

starts again.

To mark an underwater waypoint:

1. From the Sonar Page, press

MENU, highlight Show Pointer,

and press

ENTER.

2. Use the

ROCKER to move the pointer to the location you

want to mark. Press

ENTER. The New Map Waypoint Page

appears.

3. To change the name, symbol or depth, highlight the

appropriate field, and press

ENTER. Make your changes and

press

ENTER.

4. When you are done making changes, highlight

OK, and

press

ENTER.

5. To return to the standard Sonar Page, press

QUIT; or press

MENU, highlight Hide Pointer, and press ENTER.
