FISH l.D.
TheFish l.D.feature identifiestargets thatmeetcertain conditions asfish. The micro-computer analyses all echoes and eliminates surface clutter, thermoclines, and othersignals thatare undesirable. In mostinstances,
remaining targetsare fish. TheFish l.D. feature displays symbols screen inplaceoftheactual fish echoes.There are fourfishsymbolsizes:
tiny, small, medium, and large. These areused to designate the relative sizebetween targets. Inotherwords, itdisplays asmall fishsymbolwhen itthinksatargetisasmallfish, amediumfish symbol onalargertarget,etc.
Themicro-computer is sophisticated, but it can befooled. It can'tdistin- guishbetween fishandothersuspendedobjects suchastrotlines, turtles,
submerged floats, airbubbles, etc. Individual tree limbs extending outwardsfromagroupoflimbs is thehardest objectfortheFish 1.0.feature

ASP(Advanced Signal Processing)
The ASP feature is a noiserejection system built into the Ultra Ill that constantlyevaluates the effects of boat speed, water conditions, and
interference. This automatic feature givesyou the best display possible undermostconditions.
The ASPfeature is an effective tool incombating noise. In sonarterms, noiseis any undesired signal. It is causedby electrical and mechanical
sources such as bilge pumps, engine ignition systems and wiring, air bubblespassing overtheface ofthetransducer, evenvibration fromthe
engine. In all cases, noisecan produce unwanted marks on thedisplay.
TheASPfeaturehastwo levels - Normal and High. Ifyou have high noise levels,tryusingthe"High"ASPsetting. However, ifyouare havingtrouble
with noise, wesuggest thatyoutake steps tofindtheinterference source
andfix it, ratherthan continually usingthe unitwiththehigh ASPsetting.
However,therearetimeswhenyoumaywanttoturntheASPfeature off.
