Select `On' or `Off' and press ENTER to accept the selection. Simulator The `Simulator' tool allows the unit to simulate the use of four different transducer configurations: `Depth Only', `Temp', `Speed', or `Temp and Speed'. These choices allow the user to view more accurate depictions of actual unit operation. For details on using the simulator, see page 35. Noise Reject Depth Line Activated The `Noise Reject' tool helps filter unwanted noise from the chart. The `Noise Reject' tool can be turned `Off, ' set for `Auto' (automatic) adjustment or set for `Manual' adjustment. Remember when setting the Noise Reject tool, the higher the noise rejection setting, the more likely the unit is to not show fish or structure.
