1. From the Home screen, select .
2. Select a sonar view.
3. Select  > .
4. Select one or more options:
• Select to stop the transducer from transmitting.
• Select  to adjust the time-varying gain, which can reduce noise.
• Select  to adjust how the targets appear on the screen. If the echo is too wide, the targets
will blend together. If the echo is too narrow, the targets might be small and difcult to see.
• Select  to select which frequency to use for determining depth.
• For the GSD 26, select  to select which water-temperature sensor or temperature-capable

Selecting Frequencies
You can indicate which frequencies are used when using a dual-frequency transducer. With the GSD 26, you

channel.
Managing Frequencies
: This feature is available only on the GSD 26.
You can set the GSD 26 to operate on a wide variety of popular, discrete shing frequencies. For maximum
depth penetration, set the frequency to a low setting.
