7.10 How to Balance Echo Strength
A school of fish at a depth deeper than a school of equal strength in shallow water ap-
pears in weaker colors. This condition is caused by the attenuation of the ultrasonic
wave. To display the schools of fish in the same colors, use the TVG. The TVG auto-
matically increases the gain with depth so that echoes of the same strength and dif-
ferent depths are shown in the same colors. In the illustration shown below, for
example, the TVG is set for 300 ft and the TVG level is adjusted. Unnecessary echoes
at a distance less than 300 ft are deleted and echoes at depths greater than 300 ft are
not adjusted.
Note: This function is not available in the auto mode.
1. Open the home screen, then tap [Settings] - [Sounder].
2. Drag the slider in [TVG HF] (high frequency) or [TVG LF] (low frequency) to set
the level. The TVG setting method changes with the fish finder connected.
3. Tap the close button to finish.
