Just some of the Vexilar firsts include: the first liquid crystal display, the first fish alarm, the first three color display, and the first CRT and straight line paper graphs, for the sport fisherman. 1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The Boundary Waters model LC-10 is a compact and light-weight liquid crystal depth sounder. It indicates depth, shows changes in bottom content, and conditions. [. . . ] The top selection, four arrows, is the fastest setting. The bottom selection, one arrow, is the slowest. The sweep speed should roughly match the boat speed to get the most accurate reading. Press the MENU button to resume to the normal view. A-MODE Press the MENU button and then the FISH ID button to enter the A-MODE settings. A-MODE is a vertical representation of the depth that is near "real time" speed, unlike the scrolling display which has more delay. It will be displayed to the right of the normal display on the screen. To turn the feature on press the FISH ID button while you are in the A-MODE setting page of the menu. Pressing the ALARM button turns off the A-MODE and replaces it with a depth scale that can help when trying to judge the depth of a target. Press the MENU button to resume to the normal view. 13 TEMP ADJ Press the MENU button and then the ALARM button to enter the TEMP ADJ settings. This page allows you to adjust or calibrate the temperature reading if you have the optional temperature probe installed on your LC-10. Pressing the LIGHT button will decrease the read temperature by one tenth of a degree each time you press it. Pressing the FISH ID button will increase the reading. RESET Press the MENU button and then the EXP. button to enter the system reset setting. RESET returns all setting back to the factory original settings. Press the FISH ID button to reset the system. Use the A-MODE feature to help you with high speed readings. Here, high speed is defined as any speed at or above the speed at which the boat planes out. Once the boat starts to plane, turbulence will develop 16 behind the transom. If your transducer is poorly mounted, the unit will lose the bottom at a certain boat speed. This is due to all of the air bubbles in the turbulent water. Readjustment of the transducer mounting should solve this problem. SHALLOW WATER OPERATION When the LC-10 is in the AUTO mode, it automatically senses the bottoms depth and tries to keep the best view at all times. Although the display may not show it, the LC10 is monitoring basic sonar signals such as the bottoms second echo and various target's signal strengths.
