Fish Alarm. The Fish Alarm alerts you to the presence of fish, or other targets not connected to the bottom. The Fish Alarm has three different settings that correspond to the three different size fish symbols shown
The default setting is “OFF.” With the “Large Fish Only” setting, the 300TX alarms on only those targets that are represented by the large fish symbols. The 300TX can be set to alarm on only large and medium fish, or set to alarm on all fish.
Once the Fish Alarm is enabled, the 300TX emits an audible beep when the selected size fish symbol appears
Triplog. Triplog provides a running log of information based on input from the Temp/Speed sensor.
Since Triplog requires information from the Temp/Speed sensor to operate, if this sensor is not detected by the 300TX, the Triplog menu will not appear as an option.
Triplog provides seven pieces of information: The current digital depth, water surface temperature, current boat speed, the distance traveled since the 300TX was powered up or reset, the average speed, the total time elapsed since power- up or reset, and the input voltage from your boat’s electrical system.
The time, speed and distance calculations are useful for tracking your progress on a trip. The input voltage is useful for determining the condition of the charging system of the boat. When used in a portable application or whenever the 300TX is
operated from a battery source, the voltage number can be used to determine battery life. The 300TX will operate at voltages from 10 to 20 VDC. Voltages in excess of 20 or less than 10 VDC cause the unit to power off.
Options. The Options Menu is a series of linked menu functions used initially to set your preferences. Once you preferences are selected, it is unlikely these functions need to be accessed during the normal operation of the product.
The Options menu works differently than other menu functions in that all the options must be cycled through in order to return to normal operation. There are seven Option menus: Units, Fish ID, Numeral size, Bottom Black, Diagnostic and Reset.
Units Speed. The Units Speed function allows the user to select the units of measurement for the speed readout. Both MPH or statute mils per hour are available. The 300TX remembers this selection even when the unit is powered off.
