[. . . ] An alarm will sound when the PiranhaMax detects fish that correspond to the alarm setting. Fish Alarm will only sound if Fish ID+ is also set to On. (Off, Large, Large/Medium, All, Default = Off) Large fish only Large/Medium fish only. All fish. Filter (Setting Saved in Memory) Press the POWER-MENU key until FILTER appears.

(On, Off, Default = Off) User Mode Press the POWER-MENU key until USER MODE appears. (SMARTCAST, TRANSDUCER) NOTE: If a transducer is not connected to the PMax30 the unit will automatically default to SmartCastTM user mode. This has the benefit of providing a high contrast between the bottom and other sonar returns on the display. WhiteLine® highlights the strongest sonar returns in white resulting in a distinctive outline. This has the benefit of clearly defining the bottom on the display. Inverse is a method where weak returns are shown with dark pixels and strong returns with lighter pixels. This has the benefit of ensuring that weak signals will be clearly visible on the display.

Channel Select (SetUp Menu) (Setting Saved in Memory) Make sure that the SetUp menu is selected, then press the POWER-MENU key until CHANNEL SELECT appears (SmartCastTM user mode only). CHANNEL SELECT selects the type of RSS you are using. (A, B, Default = A) Scroll through all SetUp menu choices to exit the SetUp menu. NOTE: The Channel Select setting must match the actual hardware configuration of your RSS in order for the RSS to function. See Using the Advanced RSS for information about changing the channel of your Advanced RSS manually using the wet switch on the Advanced RSS. Channel A and B RSS Units Your PiranhaMax unit comes with an Advanced RSS. This Advanced RSS may be programmed to either Channel A or Channel B. This A/B Channel option gives you the flexibility to switch to a different channel if another angler is using a PiranhaMax30 or SmartCastTM unit within 150 feet of your RSS to reduce possible interference. See Changing the Channel on the Advanced RSS for details on selecting either Channel A or Channel B. NOTE: RSS units, regardless of channel, may generate erratic depth readings as a result of sonar interference when used in close proximity (closer than 40 feet) to each other or to other sonar devices. Understanding the Advanced RSS The Advanced RSS provides the following functionality: · Water Surface Temperature · Grayscale Sonar Data · Blinking Light for nighttime use · A/B Channel Select. When you are using the PiranhaMax in SmartCastTM mode, grayscale sonar data and water temperature will be displayed automatically on the screen. You must manually program the Advanced RSS in order to turn the light on or off or to change the RSS channel setting to A or B. [. . . ] Erratic readings may occur in water that is shallower than 2 feet. In addition, because of the nature of sonar, this product is not intended for use in swimming pools or small enclosed bodies of water. · Reeling the RSS too fast can cause loss of signal and the screen will freeze · Check the buoyant balance between the RSS and your tackle; over 0. 2 ounce will submerge the RSS, causing signal loss. · The RSS may not obtain its maximum RF distance of 100 feet unless the water is smooth.
