4.4.2 Depth and slope models
Depths and slopes are stored on the control box in depth and slope memories
respectively. These memories are only accessible when a vertical guidance method
has been selected that requires the use of a model from the memory. For example,
you can only access slope memory when the Depth Slope vertical guidance method
has been selected.
Selecting a depth or slope model from memory
Depth and slope models are selected from any guidance screen by pressing the
Depth or Slope softkeys respectively. The softkey labels identify the model number
that is selected, and that model’s depth or slope.
There is always at least one depth and one slope model stored in each memory. If
there is more than one model of a particular type in memory, then pressing the
softkey will select the next model.
