Simulator Mode

The Fishfinder 240 comes with a built-in simulator mode that will allow

the user to practice and learn the operation of the unit at home rather
than on the water.

To start the simulator mode, turn the unit on without a transducer

installed. As the unit powers on, the unit will indicate that it is running
the simulator mode by displaying a message across the bottom of the chart.
The message will be replaced by the simulator mode icon in the lower left
corner of the chart. While in the simulator mode, the unit will display a
random bottom scene and the Fishfinder 240 can be controlled just as if
it were on the water.

The unit can be configured to act as if a variety of transducers are

installed while in the simulator mode.

To Select a Specifi c Transducer:

1. Press the Setup button on the face of the unit.

2. Using the arrow keys, highlight the ‘Tools’ tab then the ‘Simulator’

selection fi eld.

3. Press ENTER. Choose the desired transducer from the list.

4. Press ENTER to accept the transducer selection.

To exit the Simulator, turn the unit off.
