Normal Operation

Use Normal operation for on-the-water operation with a transducer connected. In addition, your 900 Series™ 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 900 Series™ can be used on the water.

Exit Normal operation by powering your 900 Series™ off.

Simulator

Use the Simulator to learn how to use your 900 Series™ 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.

Simulator

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 900 Series™ enter Simulator automatically (as it will if a transducer is not connected and you do nothing during power up). Manually selecting Simulator from the Start-Up Options menu allows you to pre-configure your 900 Series™ for on-the-water operation. Any menu changes you make will be saved for later use.

A Simulation message will appear on the display periodically to remind you that you are using the Simulator.

Exit the Simulator by powering your 900 Series™ off.

System Status

Use System Status to view system connections and to conduct a unit self- test. Exit System Status by powering your 900 Series™ 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
