Sonar Tab Options
To calibrate the water speed:
1. On the Sonar tab, use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight ‘Calibrate Water Speed’ and press ENTER.
2. Bring the boat to a cruising speed. The top ground and uncalibrated water speeds are shown at the
bottom of the calibration window. Note your top water speed, then stop the boat and press ENTER.
3. By default, the top ground speed is automatically shown in the ‘What was your top water speed?’
field. If a ground speed is not available, the top uncalibrated water speed is used instead. If the new
speed is correct, highlight ‘OK’ and press
ENTER. If you wish to manually enter a calibration, press
ENTER on the speed field, enter a new speed and press ENTER.
4. You may also press MENU from the calibration screen and choose ‘Use Top Ground Speed’ to default
back to ground speed or ‘Use No Calibration’ to use the speed sensor’s uncalibrated speed.
NOTE: If the boat is not moving fast enough or the speed sensor is not outputting a
speed, you see a “Boat Is Not Moving Fast Enough To Calibrate” message at the bottom
of the display. Check that the speed sensor wheel is moving or safely increase boat
speed. If there is a problem with the speed sensor/unit or if a speed senor is not installed,
a “Water Speed Sensor Is Not Working” message appears at the bottom of the display.
Check connections of speed sensor cables.
• Set Up Page Layout — layout of the data fields may also be changed to show more fields (with a

instructions on changing the data fields on the Sonar Page, see pages 30-31 .

To restore default settings to the Sonar Tab:
1. Press MENU. With ‘Page Defaults’ highlighted, press ENTER.
