OPERATION
Auto Zoom Modes
Selecting AZ Mode splits the display in half and dedicates the right
side to the entire water column and the left side to just the bottom
six feet of the water column. If you are a perch angler shing in 40
feet of water, you can zoom in on the bottom six feet of the water
column to greatly increase your visibility in this zone. Similarly, the
AZ x2 Mode zooms in on the bottom 12 feet of the water column.
IMPORTANT: Both AZ and AZ x2 should never be used in an open
water scenario. Also note that if you are in the Auto Range setting,
you will need to manually reset the AZ view by shifting to normal
and back to AZ when changing depths. Furthermore, if the bottom is
very soft, you may need to switch to Normal Mode, increase the gain
setting, then switch to back to AZ in order to lock on the top of the
soft bottom. You can then lower the gain and sh as usual.
Battery Voltage Display
Each time you turn the FLX-28 unit on, it will ash the voltage of
your battery on the digital display for three seconds. The FLX-28 can
work on any 12 volt power supply. If the unit displays “LOW-BATT,”
then the battery is down to only 10.6 volts. At 8.0 volts, the
“LOW-BATT” warnings will start to blink on and o which
indicates the unit is about
to shutdown. At 6.5 volts
the entire display will blink
on and o and then shut
down completely. Be sure
to charge your battery to
full capacity to avoid down
time shing without your
Vexilar unit.
Lithium battery voltage drops faster than an SLA battery at the end of the
discharge cycle. Therefore, expect a lithium battery to die very soon after the rst
low battery indications appear.
Night Mode
Night shing in the winter months is very popular. Many nd that the
display of the FLX-28 is uncomfortably bright at night. Simply press
in and hold the Gain Control for three seconds. The brightness of the
unit will be reduced by 50%.
