Sonar Frequencies - without transducer

Page 23 highlights

Only frequencies supported by your transducer will appear on the Frequency menu. 50 kHz Sonar Frequencies Best depth penetration with lower resolution 83 kHz Wider cone angle provides more bottom coverage 200 kHz Highest sensitivity and best target separation in shallow water Low CHIRP Provides the best depth penetration with lower resolution images Better depth penetration Medium CHIRP than High CHIRP with minimal loss of target separation High CHIRP Better resolution in shallow water than Medium CHIRP Ping Speed Controls the rate the transducer uses to send sonar waves into the water. Ping speed adjustments can help reduce interference from other transducers. When using fishing modes, ping speed settings are optimized for the selected fishing conditions, so in most cases, adjustments are not necessary. Sonar Operation | Elite-5 & Elite-7 20

Sonar Operation |
Elite-5 & Elite-7
Only frequencies supported by your transducer
will appear on the Frequency menu.
Sonar Frequencies
50 kHz
Best depth penetration with
lower resolution
83 kHz
Wider cone angle provides
more bottom coverage
200 kHz
Highest sensitivity and best
target separation in shallow
water
Low CHIRP
Provides the best depth pen-
etration with lower resolu-
tion images
Medium CHIRP
Better
depth
penetration
than High CHIRP with minimal
loss of target separation
High CHIRP
Better resolution in shallow
water than Medium CHIRP
Ping Speed
Controls the rate the transducer uses to send sonar
waves into the water.
Ping
speed
adjustments
can
help
reduce
interference from other transducers. When using
fishing modes, ping speed settings are optimized
for the selected fishing conditions, so
in most
cases, adjustments are not necessary.
