What’s On the Sonar Display
The 700 Series™ Fishing System can display a variety of useful information about the area under and adjacent to your boat, including the following items:
NOTE: Entries in this view that list (with Temp/Speed or GPS Receiver) are available if either device is connected to the 700 Series™ Fishing System. If both devices are connected, then only the
information from the GPS receiver will be displayed on the view.
RTS (Real Time Sonar) Window
Structure - where fish may be hiding.
Thermoclines - layers of water with different
temperatures that appear at different depths
and different times of the year. A thermocline
typically appears as a continuous band of
many colors moving across the display at the
same depth.
Bait Ball
Fish - the Fishing System displays fish as
arches and/or fish icons, and can be set to
alarm when a fish of a certain size is
detected. When a target is detected, a Fish
ID+™ symbol appears on the display with
the depth displayed above it. The size of the
symbol indicates the intensity of the sonar
return. The unit will clearly show schools of
Bait Fish as "clouds" of different shapes and
sizes, depending on the number of fish and
boat speed.
Low Sonar Intensity Return
High Sonar Intensity Return
Cursor - available in Freeze Frame and can
be positioned in the Sonar View to provide
depth of a sonar return and bottom depth below
the cursor.
