DIGITAL SONAR FREQUENCY SELECT
The Z-9500's digital has the
capability of using
the 192 kHz or 50 kHz
frequency. Please note that the
frequcency used
by the
digital
can be
different than that used
by the chart. Changing the
digital's frequency
doesn't affect the chart's
frequency
at all. When the unit is turned on
for the first time or
preset, the 192 kHz
frequency
is used for the
digital.
The 50 kHz frequency's biggest
advantage is irs superior depth pene-
tration. With a good
transducer
installation and favorable water condi-
tions, the 50 kHz digital can reach depths greater
than 2000 feet in
fresh or salt water. Of course, to use
the 50 kHz
digital, you must have
a 50 kHz transducer
installed and connected to the Z-9500.
To
change
the
digital sonar
frequency, press
the menu key, then press
the key adjacent to the "More" label two times. The menu below
appears. Now
press
the key adjacent to the "Digital Sonar' label. The
menu shown below appears. Finally, press the key adjacent to the
desired frequency.

When the 50 kHz digital is in use,
the words "50 kHz"
appear
immedi-
ately
beneath the
digital bottom
depth. To turn the
digital sonar
off,
or
back on again, simply press
the
key adjacent to the "Turn Sonar On" or
"Turn Sonar Off" labels. Note: This
only
turns the
digital sonar
off,
not
the chart.

NMEA INTERFACE
The Z-9500 can send data out
according to NMEA
0180, 0182, or 0183
formats. The NMEA
output
is 0180 when the
Z-9500 is turned on for the
very
first time.
To select the
NMEA
output, press the MENU key
while a loran screen is
displayed. Now
press
the
key adjacent to the "CHANGE SETUP" label.
Next, press the key next to the "More" label. Finally, press the key
adjacent to the "NMEA Data
Output" label. The screen shown below
appears. Press the key next to the "More" label to see more NMEA
selections.
Simply press a key adjacent to the desired output. The Z-9500
will
return to the
last loran screen and output
data on the white serial data
wire. (See
the Power Connections section
for
wiring instructions.)
