Showing Overlay Numbers

You must have a water-speed sensor or a speed-capable transducer to show water speed information, and you must have a water-temperature sensor or a temperature-capable transducer to show water temperature information.

You can set water temperature, unit voltage, water speed (if your transducer is capable), and navigation information to appear automatically on the Sonar screens. The navigation information always includes GPS speed and GPS heading, and includes bearing and off-course information while navigating.
