System Status
Use System Status to view system connections and to conduct a unit self-test. Exit System Status
by powering your FishFinder off.
The following screens are displayed in turn when you press the VIEW button when using
System Status:

operation and the input voltage.
Accessory Test lists the accessories connected to the
system.
NOTE: The speed accessory will be detected only if the
paddlewheel has moved since your FishFinder was
powered up.

Start-Up Options Menu
Press the MENU key when the Title screen is displayed to
access the Start-Up Options menu.
Use the UP or DOWN 4-WAY Cursor keys to position the
cursor, then the RIGHT Cursor key to select one of the
following choices. If you wait too long, the system will
default to whichever menu mode happens to be highlighted:
• Normal
• Simulator
• System Status
• PC Connect (use with PC Connect Cable).
See the following paragraphs for more information about
each of these choices.
Normal Operation
Use Normal operation for on the water operation with a transducer connected. In addition, your
FishFinder uses advanced transducer detection methods to determine if a transducer is
connected. If a functioning transducer is connected, Normal operation will be selected
automatically at power up and your FishFinder can be used on the water.
Exit Normal operation by powering your FishFinder off.
Simulator
Use the Simulator to learn how to use your FishFinder before
taking your boat on the water. The Simulator is a very
powerful tool that simulates on the water operation,
providing a randomly-updated display. We recommend going
through this manual while using the Simulator, since all of the
menus function and affect the display the way they actually
do when in Normal operation.
NOTE: To get the full benefit of the Simulator, it is important to select
Simulator manually from the Start-Up Options menu as opposed to
letting the FishFinder enter Simulator automatically (as it will if a
transducer is not connected and you do nothing during power up).
Manually selecting Simulator from the Start-Up Options menu
allows you to pre-configure your Matrix™ for on the water operation.
Any menu changes you make will be saved for later use.
A message will appear on the display periodically to remind you that you are using the Simulator.
Exit the Simulator by powering your FishFinder off.
