Setup Procedures; Latitude, Longitude, Altitude - Speedtech Instruments AE-2 User Manual

— 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),
select DST ON during setup. Your AE-2 will
make the adjustment automatically. Select DST
OFF to set manually.
North American Time Zones:
Atlantic Time – 4 (– 3 during DST)
Eastern Time – 5 (– 4 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 for north America is
www.wunderground.com. Enter your zip code
or your town and state. Scroll below town name
for elevation. For LAT/LON in degrees and
minutes, click on Google Maps at far right.
