3. Using the Simulator

Simulator Mode

The simulation mode simulates main data sources, so you can see how the unit works

without being connected to echosounder, radar, GPS etc.

You can use the simulator to help you become familiar with your unit before using it out

on the water.

When the simulator is toggled on, this is indicated in the lower part of

the display.

Demonstration Mode

In this mode the unit automatically runs through the main features of

the product; it changes pages automatically, adjusts settings, opens

menus etc.

If you press a key when demo mode is running, the demonstration will

pause. After a time-out period, demo mode will resume again.

Selecting simulator source fi les

You can select which data files that should be used by the

simulator.

A set of source files is included in your system, and you can

recorded echosounder files in the simulator. For how to record

echosounder files, refer to the Using the echosounder section.
