Note: The Setting the transducer orientation procedure is
required to ensure that your display plots port and starboard
sonar returns on the correct side of the sonar image.
Settingthetransducerorientation
Ifyouhavemountedthetransducerwiththecableexiting

2.EnabletheReversePort/Starboardcontrol.
Note: Do NOT enable Reverse Port/Starboard if you have
mounted the transducer with the cable exiting towards the bow
of your vessel.
