USING THE TCR ID-1

OPERATING THE TCR ID-1

OPERATING THE TCR ID-1

Your new TCR ID-1 offers unique automatic features, as well as many adjustable ones.
If you're learning to operate the TCR ID -1 with its simulator, follow the directions listed
at “Built-In Simulator” on page 16, and then come back to this page. If you’re learning to
use your TCR ID-1 using actual on-the-water readings, proceed with the following
instructions.


Power:


Pressing this button once turns the TCR ID -1 on. Pressing it once again
turns it off. When the unit is turned off, holding this button down for about 2
seconds activates the built-in simulator.

Stop:


By pressing this button once, you can stop or “freeze” the display. Pressing
the button once again re-starts the display at its previous speed setting.

Light:


The TCR ID-1 features a 2-level backlight that evenly lights up the display
from behind the screen. Pressing the “light” button once gives you a soft
glow that is ideal for night fishing because it won’t interfere with your night
vision. Press the button again for a brighter light, making the display easy to
read at dusk when it can be harder to see. Pressing the button a third time
turns off the backIight.


Select System:


The TCR ID-1 Select System commands an amazing number of functions with only four
buttons: Select, Up and Down arrows, and On/Off.

When you press the Select button, each function appears in a block on the screen with
easy-to-understand instructions for using the function. You use the Up and Down
arrows and the On/Off button to adjust the functions. Then, the Instructions disappear,
returning the display to its full screen reading.

Select System functions are “active”; that is, the last function displayed on the screen
can be adjusted without pressing the select button again. This is valuable in 2 ways.

Example 1: Readjusting a function.

If bottom alarm was the last function used, you can adjust it again by pressing one of
the arrow buttons or the On/Off button.
