Pausing the Sonar Page

You may pause the Sonar Page to stop it from scrolling. The paused screen allows you to take a better look at sonar returns. When in this mode, the word “Paused” is displayed at the bottom of the screen and a Pointer cursor is activated. You may move the Pointer around on the paused sonar graph in order to reference sonar items and mark waypoints for that location (if attached to a Garmin GPS or compatible NMEA navigation device. See pg. 5.) A data field is displayed at the top of the graph with the Pointer’s depth, surface temperature for that position, and GPS coordinates (if available). This makes it easier to find and use objects such as stumps, rocks, or brush piles for future fishing locations. The depth continues to update while the display is paused, but the unit will not show any new sonar data until the Sonar display is unpaused (resumed). You may see a discontinuity from where the sonar information stops to where it starts again.

To pause and unpause the Sonar display:

1.From the Sonar Page, press ADJ/MENU.

2.Using the ARROW keys, highlight the ‘Pause’ option and press ENTER. The Sonar display is paused. The Pointer cursor is activated, and data fields for the Pointer are displayed at the top of the screen.

3.To unpause the Sonar display, press ADJ/MENU, highlight the ‘Resume’ option and press ENTER.

To mark an underwater waypoint:

1.With the Sonar display paused, use the ARROW keys to move the cursor onto the target (underwater drop off, stump, etc.) you want to mark. A data field is displayed with the cursor’s depth, surface tem- perature for that position and GPS coordinates.

3.Press ENTER. The New Waypoint window is displayed with a default three-digit name and pointer’s coordinates automatically filled in.

4.To change the name, highlight the name field and press ENTER. Make your changes using the ARROW keys and press ENTER when done.

5.When finished, move the field highlight back to the ‘OK’ prompt and press ENTER. The unit sends a NMEA WPL sentence to an attached GPS unit or NMEA navigational device (see pgs. 5-6).

Unit Operation

Pausing the Sonar Page

As you move the Pointer, the Depth, Temp and Position (if available) is displayed at the top of the screen.

You may send an underwater

waypoint to a GPS unit.
