SELECT READOUTS
(Advanced)
Select Readouts allows you to customize the information
displayed in individual digital readouts on the left side of
many views, including suppressing a particular readout so
that nothing is displayed; the ability to customize readouts
depends on the view and whether you are navigating. This
Advanced feature allows you to select what data will be
displayed in each of 5 fixed-position data windows
arranged at the left edge of the Sonar View screen, or
whether a particular data window will be turned off,
displaying nothing in that area; you can access this menu
choice only when in Advanced User Mode (see Setup Menu
Tab: User Mode.)
Data windows can display readouts from supported accessories such as a Speed
accessory. Each data window can either be empty (Off) or contain one of the following:
• Heading
• Temperature
• Depth
• Time + Date
• Position
• Triplog
• Voltage
• Water Speed (only with a Speed accessory)
• Speed
(if there is a GPS Receiver, then this refers to the speed detected by the GPS
Receiver; if no GPS Receiver, then this refers to the speed of the paddlewheel)
Sonar-only Views, Not Navigating: On Sonar-only views, as long as you are not
navigating, all 5 readouts are customizable.
NOTE: All 5 readouts on the Side Imaging and Side/Sonar Combo views are also
customizable.
Other Views, Not Navigating: On any view with a chart, as long as you are not
navigating, two of the readouts are not customizable: the 2nd box always displays
Heading, while the 5th box always displays Speed. On the Bird’s Eye View, when you
are not navigating, there are four fixed info boxes that show Depth, Heading, Position
(Lat/Lon) and Speed. When you are navigating in the Bird's Eye View, there are two
columns of four boxes. The first column shows Depth, Time To Go (TTG), Position
(Lat/Lon), and Speed. The second column shows Cross Track Error (XTE), Heading,
Bearing, and Distance To Go (DTG).
All Views, Navigating: When you are navigating, all readouts in all views (even split
screen views with a Sonar display) cannot be customized, with the exception of the top
readout info box, which is still customizable. In any view, while you are navigating, the
second readout box shows Heading, the third box shows Bearing, the fourth box is
divided to show Cross Track Error (XTE) and Distance To Go (DTG), and the fifth box is
divided to show Time To Go (TTG) and Speed.
