age The default setting is acceptable for most conditions. If the
current data changes randomly, select the setting that
gives stable current data, but does not slow response to
changes in current data.
Track Depth Set the water tracking depth for measurement of through-
the-water-speed. If the through-the-water speed readout is
unstable, raise the setting.
Current Mea- Set the depth at which to measure current (tide) speed and
surement direction.
CALC Average Smooth the heading data, which is received every second. No Averaging, 10s,
