ADJUSTCHARTSURFACE CLARITY The markings extending downward from the zero line on the chart are called "surface clutter. " These markings are causedby wave action, boat wakes, temperature inversion, and other natural causes.
Digital/Chart The digital/chart shows the chart on the right side of the screen. The left side has four digital boxes containing thewaterdepth atthetopofthescreen,
boat speed, distance travelled (log), and surface watertemperature. (Note: Speed, distance, and temperature displaysrequireaspeed/ temperature sensor which must be purchased separately. )
TheSurfaceClarity Control (5CC)reducesoreliminatessurfacecluttersignalsfrom the display. 3CC varies the sensitivity ofthe receiver, decreasing it near the surface and gradually increasing it as the depth increases. The maximum depth that 5CC will affect is 75% of the selected depth range. For example, on a 0-60 foot range with maximum SCC, surface clutterwillbe reduced downto4bfeet.
