Normal

Use Normal for on- the-water oper ation with a t ransducer c onnected. In addition, y our Fishfinder uses advanc ed tra nsducer d etection methods to determine if a transducer is connected.

If a fu nctioning t ransducer is connected, Normal o peration will be selected automatically at power up, and your Fishfinder can be used on the water.

Exit Normal operation by powering your Fishfinder off.

Simulator

Use Simulator to learn how to use your Fishfinder before taking your boat on the water. The Simulator is a v ery powerful tool that provides a randomly-updated display which simulates on the water operation.

Selecting Simulator from the Start-Up Options Menu allows you to pre-configure your Fishfinder for on the water operation. Any menu changes you make will be saved for later use. We recommend going through this manual while using the Simulator, since all of the menus function and affect thedisplay in the same way as they would in Normal operation.

NOTE: To get the full benefit of th e S imulator, it is import ant to select Si mulator manually from the Start-Up Options Menu as opposed to letting the Fishfinder enter Simulator automatically (as it will if a transducer is not connected and you do nothing during power up).

A message will appear on the display periodically to remind yo u that you ar e using the Simulator.

Exit the Simulator by powering your Fishfinder off.
