NOTE:

For some great practice, try running the Sonar Simulator and the GPS Simulator at the same time. This will really give you a feel for how the unit will work in the field.

NOTE:

If you turn on your unit before attaching a transducer, it may enter a demo mode. The words demo mode flash on the bottom of the screen and a sonar chart plays much like the simulator. Unlike the simula- tor, the demo mode is for demonstration only, and will automatically stop as soon as you turn on the unit with a transducer attached. The simulator will continue to function normally.

Stop Chart

If you are running multiple units on a boat or using this unit in a car, there are times when you may want to turn off the sonar. This com- mand turns off the sonar and stops the chart from scrolling. Sonar re- starts automatically each time you turn on your unit.

From the Sonar Page press MENU↓ to STOP CHARTENTEXIT.
