Use the UP or DOWN 4-WAY Cursor keys to position the cursor, then the RIGHT Cursor key to select one of the following choices. If you wait too long, the system will default to whichever menu mode happens to be highlighted:

•Normal

•Simulator

•System Status.

See the following paragraphs for more information about each of these choices.

Normal Operation

Use Normal Operation for on the water operation. Turn on your Chartplotter by pressing the POWER/LIGHT key. The Title screen is displayed until the Chartplotter begins operation. After the Title screen is displayed, a 30 second Navigation Warning screen is shown. Press the MENU key during the time that the Title screen is displayed to view the Start-Up Menu in order to choose Simulator mode.

Press the EXIT key during the Navigation Warning to enter into Normal mode.

Simulator

Use the Simulator to learn how to use your 900 Series™ before taking your boat on the water. The Simulator is a very powerful tool that simulates on-the- water operation, providing a randomly-updated display. We recommend going through this manual while using the Simulator, since all of the menus function and affect the display the way they actually do when in Normal operation.

Simulator

NOTE: At startup, while still on the splash screen (while the name of your Humminbird® model is still on the screen) you must press the MENU key and then select Simulator manually to enter Simulator mode. Manually selecting Simulator from the Start-Up Options menu allows you to pre-configure your Chartplotter for on the water operation. Any menu changes you make will be saved for later use.

A Simulation message will appear on the display periodically to remind you that you are using the Simulator.

Exit the Simulator by powering your 900 Series™ off.
