Simulator

This unit has a built-in simulator that shows a simulated bottom signal with fish signals. This lets you practice with the unit as if you were on the water; all features and functions of the unit are usable. A message ap- pears occasionally to remind you that the simulator is on.

To use the simulator, repeatedly press MENU until the SIMULATOR menu appears. Press ↑ to turn it on and press PWR to clear the menu. Repeat the steps above to turn it off. The simulator automatically will be turned off when you power off the unit.
