Keel Offset. By pressing the “ON/OFF MODE” key-
pad again displays the “KL” keel offset setting. It can be
set so the depth sounder shows the depth below the trans-
ducer or the depth under the keel. Press the “UP” or
“DOWN” arrow keypads to adjust the reading to the de-
sired depth no further than 19.9 feet.
An example would be if the keel bottom is 3 feet below
the transducer and you desire the depth sounder to read
the depth below the keel, the display should be adjusted
to read 3.0 FT.
Note: Once the keel offset is programmed, the shallow
and deep alarms will be energized by the depth under the
keel.
Units. Pressing the “ON/OFF MODE” keypad again dis-
plays “UN” on the LCD indicating the units mode.
Press either the up or down arrow keypads to set the units
desired to (FT) feet, (M) meters, or (F) fathoms. Once
these units are set, they will remain the same for all modes.
By pressing the “ON/OFF MODE” keypad again returns
the depth sounder to normal operation.
