Sonar Operation
This unit supports two types of sonar: Conventional and DownScan.
CHIRP
A CHIRP (Compressed High Intensity Radar Pulse) transducer transmits a modulated pulse of all frequencies within the bandwidth of the selected transducer type.
This results in better image quality, better target separation and greater depth penetration.
This unit supports High CHIRP, Medium CHIRP and
Low CHIRP, depending on the transducer.
CHIRP can be used with Lowrance conventional sonar transducers.
• 50/200 kHz (Low/High CHIRP)
• 83/200 kHz (Medium/High CHIRP)
The features described in this section are for conventional sonar. Refer to the DownScan operation section for information on DownScan features.
To use CHIRP, select the desired CHIRP frequency from the Frequency menu.

Adjust
Used to make adjustments to Sensitivity and Colorline/Grayscale.
15 Sonar Operation | Elite X series
Sensitivity
Controls the level of detail shown on the display.
Too much detail will clutter the screen. If Sensitivity is set too low, desired echoes may not be displayed.
NOTE: You can make minor (+/-40%) changes to sensitivity with Auto Sensitivity turned on. You will have to turn it off to make significant adjustments.
Colorline
Helps distinguish fish or structure from the bottom by showing hard returns as light colors and soft returns as darker colors. A lower colorline setting will display only the hardest returns, shown in light colors.
Range
Selects the deepest range shown on the display. Range settings display the section of the water column from the water surface to the selected depth range.
If you select too shallow a depth range, the unit will not be able to lock onto the bottom.
Auto Sensitivity
Keeps sensitivity at a level that works well under most conditions, reducing the needs for adjustments. Auto Sensitivity is turned on by default.
Custom Range — Upper and Lower Limits
Used to select the upper limit and lower limit of a section of the water column. That allows you to view a section of the water column that does not include the water surface or the bottom. Upper and lower limits must be at least 6.5 ft (2m) apart.

Frequently asked questions
CHIRP (Compressed High Intensity Radar Pulse) sonar technology uses a wider range of frequencies to provide better target separation, greater depth penetration, and a clearer image of fish and underwater structure.
DownScan Imaging creates a high-resolution, picture-like view of the bottom and structure beneath your boat, allowing you to identify underwater features in detail.
You can adjust the sensitivity from the ‘Sonar’ menu, which controls the level of detail shown on the display. Higher sensitivity reveals more detail, while lower sensitivity reduces clutter.
Trackback allows you to review your recent sonar history by moving the cursor to the left. This lets you analyze the sonar data and identify potential fishing spots you may have passed.
The Elite-7x/9x models offer a larger display size, NMEA 2000 compatibility, and a higher transmit power for improved sonar performance in deeper water.
