[. . . ] When in simulator operation, the 100SX responds to control inputs as if it is in actual operation, so feel free to experiment with the many features and functions to customize the 100SX for your particular operation. To exit Simulator mode, power the unit off. WHAT YOU SEE ON-SCREEN Your 100SX uses a 128 x 64 matrix FSTN LCD display. This type of display provides outstanding viewability in all light conditions over a wide range of temperatures. NOTE: When in simulator mode, the word "simulator" occasionally scrolls across the display indicating that the information on-screen is not real sonar data. At power-up, the depth range , sensitivity, and other user adjustments are set at their default settings. There are several elements on-screen which are common to all modes of operation. The large digital number at the lower left of the display is the depth of the water directly beneath the transducer location. The range of the graphic display is shown to the right of the graphic information. The upper number is 0 indicating the surface of the water, the lower number is one of the 9 ranges available which best matches the depth of the water. As the depth of the water changes, the range changes as necessary in order to retain a bottom representation onscreen. When in Auto mode, the horizontal line at the top of the graphics area is the 0 line which represents the surface of the water. Occasionally there will be a gap in this line. This gap indicates that the unit is updating the display even if the bottom is not visible on-screen, or if the bottom information is not changing. The graphic representation of the bottom may vary considerably depending on the composition and regularity of the bottom surface (see Interpreting the Onscreen Information). Any sonar return which is determined to be not a part of the bottom is shown between the surface and the bottom. If this return is determined to be a fish, one of several fish shapes is drawn which indicate size, depth, and location of the fish (see Interpreting the Onscreen Information). INTERPRETING THE ON-SCREEN INFORMATION Figure B shows a typical view you can expect to see on-water. New sonar information appears on the right side of the graphic area of the display and moves to the left as new information is displayed. The 100SX automatically selects the appropriate depth range to show the depth of water beneath the transducer. This range is selected so that the bottom representation is typically shown about 2/3 down the display. The graphic depiction of the bottom provides the user with an effective tool for understanding the composition of the bottom. If the bottom is hard and smooth, the bottom depiction is narrow and dense. [. . . ] To disable the Fish Alarm, press MENU until the Fish Alarm menu appears on-screen. Use the UP ARROW to highlight "Off", and let the menu time out. Fish ID The Fish ID menu controls the method used to portray fish. There are three selections available: ID Off, ID On, ID+. With ID Off, sonar returns are displayed as "raw" information. [. . . ]
