Powering the Display ON and OFF
To turn on the display, press and hold the POWER-MENU button until you hear the beep,
then release. To power off the display, press and hold the POWER-MENU button until the
display shuts down, then release.
CAUTION! The Rod Mounted Display DOES NOT have an automatic shut off function. It will continue to
draw current unless you shut it down manually by pressing and holding the POWER-MENU button.
Start-Up in Fishing Mode
After pressing the POWER-MENU button to turn on the Rod Mounted Display, you will see the
Start-Up screen. The Start-Up screen will disappear automatically after two seconds have
passed, without further action from you. In Fishing mode, the screen will either display sonar
information or the RF20 SmartCast screen will appear, indicating that no sonar information is
currently available.
When you have powered on the Rod Mounted Display and have cast the RSS into the water,
returned sonar data will start to be displayed. A vertical line will appear first, followed by a bot-
tom depiction and possible fish locations if fish are sensed.
Startup in Simulator Mode
To enter Simulator mode, press the POWER-MENU button to turn on the RF20, wait until you
see the Start-up screen, then quickly press the RIGHT Cursor Button. Once you are in
Simulator mode, the display will show the word Simulate, and then, after two seconds, will
show simulated data. To exit Simulator mode, you must power down the RF20.
