Printing data from the memory
In order to make a print-out of all or part of the data stored in the memory, so called "limit markers"
must be set. Only data within these limit markers will be printed out. To set these limit markers and
print the data within them, proceed as follows:
• Scroll the display area until one limit is reached (the time can be seen in the "time
window").
• Press the MARKER key (the time of the right hand side of the display appears in a
window below the depth alarm window)
• Scroll the display area until the other limit is reached (the time can be seen in the
"time window").
• Press the PRINT key, the time in the window below the depth alarm window will be
replaced by the word "Wait", followed after a short time by the word "Printing".
During printing, the user may scroll further within the memory. The print-out can be stopped at any
point by pressing the PRINT key for a second time.
Fault conditions
When the PRINT key is pressed, a fault condition may exist. If so, one of the 3 fault conditions
shown below will be indicated in the window beneath the depth alarm window:
• PERIOD?
: This indicates that the user has set the both limit markers to the
same time. The limit markers must be set to different times.
• PAPER OUT : The printer has run out of paper
• ERROR
: The printer is not connected, not switched ON, or otherwise
defective
Making a hard copy of the screen
In order to make a hard copy of data displayed on the screen, scroll to the desired position and
press the PRINT key. A window will appear containing the word "Hardcopy". The print-out will be
an exact reproduction of the screen at the time the PRINT key was pressed.
NOTE:
With the exception of the PRINT and ESCAPE push-buttons, all other controls
are "dead" during the time it takes to print out a hard copy of the screen. The
PRINT push-button will stop the printing process and the ESCAPE push-
button will exit the LOG-DATA feature and return the system to Echo-
sounding operation.
