-- SETUP PROCEDURES --

INFO NECESSARY FOR SETUP
Proper set-up requires the local time and date,
time zone (hours from GMT), latitude and
longitude (in degrees and minutes), and
altitude. The fish feeding algorithm is directly
related to sun and moon positions, which are
set from latitude, longitude and time zone.
Barometric air pressure also affects fish
behavior, and the correct altitude must be
entered to establish the correct relative air
pressure.
TIME ZONE
The time zone setting is based on the deviation
from GMT (Greenwich Mean Time). If your
location follows Daylight Saving Time (DST),
the resulting time zone must be increased by
one during this time (summer time).
North American Time Zones:
Atlantic Time -4 (-3 during DST)
Eastern Time -5 (-4 during DST)
Central Time -6 (-5 during DST)
Mountain Time -7 (-6 during DST)
Pacific Time -8 (-7 during DST)
Alaska Time -9 (-8 during DST)
Hawaii Time -10 (-9 during DST)

LATITUDE, LONGITUDE, ALTITUDE

The correct latitude and longitude is necessary
for proper sun and moon information. The
correct altitude is required for proper
adjustment of air pressure. To locate your
latitude, longitude and altitude, refer to a GPS
unit, local airport, or the internet. The easiest
online source is www.topozone.com. Choose
"Get a Map" and enter in your town and state.
In the "Place Name Search", it will show
elevation in feet and latitude/longitude as a
decimal. Double click on the town name and a
map will appear. At the bottom of the map,
