Low Battery Alarm
Settings: Off, 8.5V - 13.5V; Default = Off
Low Battery Alarm sounds when the input battery voltage is equal to or less
than the menu setting. The battery alarm will only sound for the battery that is
connected to the Fishfinder. The Low Battery Alarm should be set to warn you
when the battery voltage drops below the safety margin that you have
determined.
Temp. Alarm
Settings: Off, 33-120 Fahrenheit, 0-50 Celsius
[International Models only]; Default = Off
Temp. Alarm sounds when the water temperature detected by the Fishfinder
reaches the Temp. Alarm setting, which is either set in degrees Fahrenheit or
Celsius [International Models only].
Alarm Tone
Settings: High, Medium, Low; Default = Medium
Alarm Tone selects the pitch of the alarm sound. A brief tone will be produced
as you adjust the Alarm Tone so that you can select the tone that you can hear
best.
For instance, if you are running a trolling motor (battery operated), you would
want to set the Low Battery Alarm to sound before the battery voltage drops
too low for it to be used to start your main, gasoline-powered engine.
For example, if the Temp. Alarm is set to 58 degrees Fahrenheit, and the water
temperature falls from 60 degrees to 58 degrees, the Temp. Alarm will sound.
Similarly, if the water temperature rises from 56 degrees to 58 degrees, the
Temp. Alarm will also sound.
