3 Deleting a depth layer

You can create as many depth layers as you want on the EK80. The active layer is shown with red border lines. A single layer can be deleted if you do not need it any longer.

Context

When a layer is established, it is drawn with two horizontal lines in the echograms. The lines identify the upper and lower depth settings. If you have only one layer, it will always be "active", and shown with red lines. If you have more than two layers, the "active" layer is shown with red lines, while the others are shown with black lines.

Tip

The Numerical information pane is the best tool for controlling your depth layers. All layers are listed, even those that may be located outside your current echogram presentation. The different layers can easily be activated by clicking the list of numerical data.

Procedure

Select an "active" layer.

This is not relevant if you have only one layer, because it will always be "active". If you have two or more layers, there are two ways to do this:

Click between the two layer indicator lines in the echogram.

The line colours change to red.

Select the relevant layer information in the Numerical information pane.

The colour of the layer data changes to red.

Open the Active menu.

Select Delete Layer.
