Normal Operation

Use Normal operation for on the water operation with a transducer connected. In addition, your FishFinder uses advanced transducer detection methods to determine if a transducer is connected. If a functioning transducer is connected, Normal operation will be selected automatically at power up and your FishFinder can be used on the water.

Exit Normal operation by powering your FishFinder off.

Simulator

Use the Simulator to learn how to use your FishFinder before taking your boat on the water. The Simulator is a very powerful tool that simulates on the water operation, providing a randomly-updated display. We recommend going through this manual while using the Simulator, since all of the menus function and affect the display the way they actually do when in Normal operation.

NOTE: To get the full benefit of the Simulator, it is important to select Simulator manually from the Start-Up Options menu as opposed to letting the FishFinder enter Simulator automatically (as it will if a transducer is not connected and you do nothing during power up).

SimulatorManually selecting Simulator from the Start-Up Options menu allows you to pre-configure your Matrix™ for on the water operation.

Any menu changes you make will be saved for later use.

A message will appear on the display periodically to remind you that you are using the Simulator. Exit the Simulator by powering your FishFinder off.

System Status

Use System Status to view system connections and to conduct a unit self-test. Exit System Status by powering your FishFinder off.

The following screens are displayed in turn when you press the VIEW button when using System Status:

•Self Test

•Accessory Test

•GPS Diagnostic View.

Self Test displays results from the internal diagnostic self test, including unit serial number, Printed Circuit Board (PCB) serial number, software revision, total hours of operation and the input voltage.
