USING THE 350TX
SIMULATOR OPERATION
Actual depth capability depends on factors such as bottom hardness, water
conditions, and transducer installation. Units will typically read to deeper
depths in fresh water than in salt water.
SIMULATOR OPERATION
The 350TX contains a simulator that allows
you to use the unit as if you are on the water.
The simulator is invaluable for learning how
to operate the 350TX.
There are two ways to start the simulator. If
the unit is powered off, press and hold the
POWER button for approximately three
seconds until you hear a continuous chirp.
The simulator can also be started by selecting the Simulator option on the
start-up screen after you power-up the unit. When this screen is shown,
simply press the DOWN ARROW until Simulator is highlighted. When the
screen times out, the unit will be in simulator mode.
When in simulator operation, the 350TX responds to control inputs as if it
is in actual operation, so feel free to experiment, or to customize the unit
for your particular operation.
To exit Simulator mode, power the unit off.
When in simulator mode, the word “simulator” occasionally
scrolls across the display indicating the information on-screen is
not real sonar data.
FEATURE MEMORY
If your 350TX is installed with a transducer connected, any changes you
make to the set-up or User Options (see Control Functions) while in
Simulator are retained in the units memory. This allows you to use
simulator to experiment with the various set-up options, and retain your
selected settings for normal operation.
