Simulator
The X-65 has a simulator built in that lets you use it as if you are on the
water. All features and functions of the unit are usable. A message
appears occasionally to remind you that the simulator is on.
To use the simulator, press the MENU key, then press the up or down
arrow keys until the "System Setup" menu appears. When it does, press
the right arrow key. Now press the up or down arrow keys until the
"Simulator" label is highlighted. Finally, press the right arrow key. The X-
65 returns to a sonar screen with simulated echoes scrolling across the
screen.
Preset Options
The X-65 "remembers" all settings
such as units of measure, auto/
manual, sensitivity, even when power
is removed from the unit. To return the
X-65 to the factory settings, highlight
the "Preset Options" label on the "Sys-
tem Setup" menu, then press the right
arrow key. The X-65 returns to the full
chart screen with all settings returned
to their factory values.
Keel Offset
The X-65 measures water depth from
the face of the transducer. Since the
transducer is below the surface of the
water, this distance is not the exact
water depth. If the transducer is one
foot below the surface, and the X-65
reports the water depth as 30 feet,
then the depth is actually 31 feet.
You can calibrate the depth reading
using the keel offset feature. First,
highlight the "Keel Offset" label on the
"System Setup" menu, then press the
right arrow key. The screen shown at
right appears. The current bottom depth shows in the upper left corner of
the screen. The keel offset shows in the upper right corner. In this
example, we need to change the keel offset so that the X-65 will add one
