cable
directly
to the
battery
perature display
on. The screen will clear and begin scrolling echoes
across the
display. The
digital temperature can be seen in the upper
left corner of the screen. It will display the temperature in degrees
Fahrenheit. If you wish to change to degrees Celsius, go back to the
Temperature
menu and press
the key next to the "Temp in Deg. C"
label.
The
digital temperature will display
in degrees
C.
DISTANCE
LOG
Using the information from the optional speed sensor, the Z-9500
automatically keeps
track of the distance traveled.
When the Z-9500 is first turned
on,
the Distance Log display is off. To
turn it on, first press the MENU key. Next, press
the
key adjacent to
the "More" label. This brings up the second menu page. Now press
the key adjacent to the "Digital Display" label. Next, press the key
adjacent to the "More" label. Finally, press the
key next to the "Dis-
tance Log" label.

LORAN MODULE EXTERNAL GROUND INSTRUCTIONS
A ground lug is attached to the side of the loran module. To use the
external grounding system, the following grounding techniques are
listed in order of their
preference.
1. The best
technique is to use a grounding plate with the external
ground
attached to this plate placed in the water.
2. The next preferred is to externally ground
to the lower unit of the
motor or inboard/outboard.
3. The ground on the boat battery may also be used for external
grounding.
4. Any part of the hull of the boat that is metallic and in contact with
water is also
acceptable for attaching the external
ground.
We do not recommend that
you ground under the console
of the boat.
To
test the
degree
of
improved function of the
Loran, the
following test
should be conducted:
1. Start
your unit with the external ground of the
coupler
disconnected.
At a known latitude and longitude, allow the unit to lock onto the known
stations
(check
to make sure that the TO's are correct for this known
location) and acquire and convert to the known latitude and longitude of
your location.
2. Allow the unit to run for several minutes and make note of the
strengths (SNR's) of the stations you are using.
Press the key adjacent to the "Dist Log Disp On" label to turn the
distance
log display
on. The screen will clear and retum to the sonar
display. The distance
log can be seen in the
upper left corner of the
screen. It will display
the distance travelled in statute miles. If you
wish
to
change
to kilometers or nautical
miles, go
back to the Distance
Log menu and press the key next to the "More" label. The screen
shown at the
top
of
the next
page appears.
3. Connect the external
ground according to a technique listed above
and power up your unit. Allow the unit to again run for 3 to 5 minutes
and make note of the strengths of the stations
you are using. If the
signal strengths increase, the external ground
is preferred. If
you notice
no change in signal strengths or the signals decrease, you should
recheck where
you have the external ground
connected. If you see no
difference with or without the external grounding, you really
do not need
this added
ground.
