[. . . ] The 6-Beam Sonar View also provides information on sonar targets relative to the boat. The far right window displays sonar targets which are to the far right of the boat and the far left window displays sonar targets which are to the far left of the boat. The remaining windows display sonar targets which are successively closer to the boat. The width of coverage is approximately equal to the current depth. 6-Beam Sonar View 1 2 3 BIRD'S EYE VIEW Bird's Eye View shows a 3D perspective view of the track and the chart land contour from a point above and behind the boat (the eye point). Big Digits on this view provide digital data in a large, easy-to-see format. When you press the 4-WAY Cursor key in the Bird's Eye View, the position of the eye point will shift. This allows you to move and turn the eye point so that you can look off to the sides, or even behind the boat. Pressing the RIGHT or LEFT arrow keys on the 4-WAY Cursor key turns the eye point right or left, while pressing the UP arrow key moves the eye point forward, and pressing the DOWN arrow key moves the eye point backward. Pressing the EXIT key moves the eye point back to its original position behind and above the boat.

You can perform any of the functions for either of these views, but only when the view you want to control is selected as the active side (see Sonar X-PressTM Menu: Active Side or Navigation X-PressTM Menu: Active Side for more information). You can also adjust the size of the left side of a split screen (see Sonar X-PressTM Menu: Split Position or Navigation X-PressTM Menu: Split Position for more information). NOTE: See Bird's Eye View and Chart View for more information about each side of this view. CHART VIEW Chart View shows cartography from the built-in UniMapTM or an optional MMC map for the area surrounding your current position. The current track (also known as the position history or breadcrumb trail) showing where the boat has been, along with saved tracks, waypoints, and the current route (when navigating), are overlaid on the chart. You can use the 4-WAY Cursor Control key to shift/pan the chart to another area. You can use the INFO key to get information on the chart objects near the cursor.

When North-Up orientation is selected, True North is shown at the top of the display. In other words, objects located to the north of the boat are drawn above the boat. When Course-Up orientation is selected, the direction of motion of the boat is shown at the top of the display. In both orientations, the view pans automatically, so that the boat is always centered on the display. [. . . ] This applies only to Humminbird® products returned to our factory in Eufaula, Alabama.
