Chapter 6: Sonar Mode Operation
Fish Alarm – If this alarm is ON the unit sounds a buzzer when-
•
ever it finds a fish. Different buzzer tones are used to indicate fish
detected by the 50 kHz and 200 kHz frequencies.
• Shallow water – You set depth at which the shallow water alarm
triggers. When the depth is less than that set, the buzzer sounds
and a pop-up window describing the alarm is displayed. You can-
not set the shallow alarm to be deeper than the deep alarm.
• Deep water – You set depth at which the deep water alarm trig-
gers.When the depth is more than that set, the buzzer sounds and a
pop-up window describing the alarm is displayed. You cannot set
the deep alarm to be shallower than the shallow alarm.
Note: The Deep Alarm must be set at a depth that is greater than the
depth at which the Shallow Alarm is set. Conversely, the Shallow
Alarm must be set at a depth that is less than the depth at which the
Deep Alarm is set.
After you have acknowledged the sounding of a shallow or deep
water alarm, a minimum of 30 seconds must elapse before a
another shallow/deep alarm can sound again.
The top line status bar shows the condition of the alarms:
• indicates an alarm is enabled. The speaker symbol is unfilled
until an alarm is triggered and silenced, then the symbol is shown
solid.
S indicates the shallow alarm is enabled; a pop-up window indi-
•
cates when the alarm is triggered.
D indicates the deep alarm is enabled; a pop-up window indicates
•
when the alarm is triggered.
• indicates the fish alarm is enabled.
