MODE and SET are debounced for 3/8 of a second. If
the SET button is held for 2 seconds while setting the
numeric value the key auto repeats at a rate of 6 per
second (i.e. to scroll through all 60 minutes requires 12
seconds). When the ignition is turned off the present
mode is saved and the LCD displays the time of day.
The time setting functions are not available with the
ignition off. When the ignition is turned on the LCD
returns to its prior display mode.
The clock keeps time up to 21 days after the ignition is
turned off. During this time the system is in its power
saving state. After 21 days the module shuts down to
conserve battery power. When the ignition is turned on
after 21 days, the clock restarts at midnight in the mode
active at ignition off. The time of day must be set again.
NOTICE
The clock has a three week auto shut-off capa-
bility. This will reduce the drain of your battery.
2. Depthsounder & Alarm
The depthsounder is standard equipment on 180, 190
and 200 Horizon® models. Readings can be displayed
in feet or meters. The depthsounder has both an au-
dible and visual alarm. The transducer is factory installed
and is water tested. It will be located in the bilge com-
partment to limit the effect of water turbulence while under-
way.
NOTICE
DO NOT depend solely upon the depthsounder
for water depth. It is important to have navigation-
al charts of the waters in which you are operat-
ing.
Do not rely on depthsounder to avoid sub-
merged objects. Depthsounders provide a rela-
tive indication of water depth only.
A shallow water depth alarm feature can be set in incre-
ments of 1' (0.3m). The operator sets the value by press-
ing and holding dashboard mounted MODE and SET
buttons for 2 seconds. Entering shallow water causes
a continuous chirping sound and blinking up/down ar-
row segments.
The shallow water alarm setting is displayed as blinking
digits. Current depth is displayed as steady (not blink-
ing) digits. If the alarm screen is blank no shallow
water alarm is set. If the depth screen shows dashes

the depth is zero or indicates a bad sensor reading.
Press the MODE button initiates "Set Mode". The shal-
low water setting blinks along with the down arrows on
the display. Pressing the SET button sets the alarm
towards deeper water. Pressing the MODE button
again indicates the up arrows. With the up arrows on,
pressing the SET button sets the alarms towards shal-
lower water. Holding the SET button longer than 1
second speeds up the process of making the alarm
setting deeper or shallower.
Pressing the MODE button again allows the depth mea-
surement units to be changed. While in "Units Mode",
the shallow alarm setting blinks and the "FEET" or
"METERS" telltale flashes. Pressing the SET button
changes between feet and meters. Pressing the MODE
button again allows the depth sounder system to be
enabled or disabled. In this mode, a blinking message
"ON" or "OFF" appears. Pressing the SET button
changes between Sounder ON and Sounder Off. In
the "OFF" mode the sounder no longer sends out its
periodic sonar ping. The "OFF' mode should be en-
abled when using Fish Finders or other equipment
that has the same 200kHz frequency to avoid
"Cross Talk".
Pressing the MODE button again causes a return to
normal "Depth Mode". In any case, thirty seconds af-
ter the last button press, the display automatically re-
turns to depth mode. In Depth Display mode, pressing
the SET button displays the shallow water alarm set-
ting. The alarm setting blinks for ten seconds. When
shallow water is encountered the up/down arrows blink
and the audible alarm beeps.
Pressing the SET button turns the beeper off, but only
for the present low water event. Entering deeper wa-
ter re-enables the beeper for the next encounter with
shallow water. See the VDO "Quick Start" card at
the end of this section for additional directions.
3. Odometer (Log) and Trip Odometer (Trip Log)
The Log calculates total mileage based on input from
the paddle wheel. This value is unable to be reset
except at the factory and is stored in nonvolatile
memory.
The Trip Log is a resetable distance that will display
distance accumulated since the last reset. The opera-
tor presses both MODE and SET while in the Trip Log
mode to reset to "Zero".
