Matrix 67 Title Screen 28 The Menu System The menu system is divided into easy-to-use menu modules. The main components of the menu system are: Start-Up Options Menu - Press the MENU key during the power up sequence to view the Start-Up Options menu. X-PressTM Menu - The X-PressTM menu allows you to access the settings that are changed frequently without having to navigate through the whole menu system. When you select a menu item from the X-PressTM menu, the menu will collapse, leaving only the menu choice on the screen. Use the UP or DOWN Cursor keys to reactivate the X-PressTM menu. X-PressTM Menu NOTE: The X-PressTM Menu choices will vary depending on which view is active when you press the MENU key, as well as whether you are in Normal or Advanced User Mode. Either the Sonar or Navigation X-PressTM Menu will appear, depending on the view you are in. Main Menu Tabs - Less frequently-adjusted menus are grouped into the Main Menu System. The Main Menu system is organized under the following tab headings to help you find a specific menu item quickly: Alarms, Sonar, Navigation (if the GPS Receiver is attached), Setup, and Accessories. Press the MENU key twice for the Main Menu, then use the 4-WAY Cursor LEFT or RIGHT key to select a tab, and use the DOWN or UP key to select a specific menu item under that tab, then use the LEFT or RIGHT keys again to change a menu setting. A down arrow at the bottom of a menu means that you can scroll to additional menu choices using the DOWN Cursor key. A right or left arrow on a menu choice means that you can use the RIGHT or LEFT Cursor keys to make changes or to see more information. NOTE: The Main Menu choices will vary depending on whether you are in Normal or Advanced User Mode. Main Menu System Normal User Mode 29 User Mode (Normal or Advanced) - An Advanced Mode is provided for users who desire the highest level of control over the Matrix Fishing System and Normal Mode for users who desire greater simplicity and fewer menu choices. Additional Advanced menu choices will be displayed throughout the menu system when you navigate to specific menus while in Advanced Mode. Any changes made while in Advanced Mode will remain in effect after you switch back to Normal Mode. For example, if you set specific views to be visible while in Advanced User Mode, and then return to Normal User Mode, those views will still be visible. See Setup Menu Tab: User Mode for specific instructions on changing to Advanced User Mode. Sonar Tab, Normal Mode Sonar Tab, Advanced Mode Total Screen Update - when you change any menu settings that affect the Sonar View, the view will update immediately (i. e. you don't have to exit the menu to apply the change to the screen). For instance, by switching between "Inverse" and "Structure ID®" from the X-PressTM menu it is possible to alternate quickly between the two viewing methods. 30 Start-Up Options Menu Press the MENU key when the Title screen is displayed to access the Start-Up Options menu. Use the UP or DOWN 4-WAY Cursor keys to position the cursor, then the RIGHT Cursor key to select one of the following choices.

[. . . ] Electrical noise from the boat's engine may be interfering with sonar reception. See Finding the Cause of Noise for more information. 77 Finding the Cause of Noise Electrical noise usually affects the display with many black dots at high speeds, and high sensitivity readings. One or more of the following sources can cause noise or interference: Possible Source of Noise Isolation Other electronic devices Turn off any nearby electronic devices to see if the problem goes away, then turn them on one at a time to see if the noise re-appears. To determine whether the boat's engine is the source of the noise, increase the RPMs while the boat is in neutral and stationary to see if the noise increases proportionately; if noise appears when you rev the engine, the problem could be the spark plugs, alternator, or tachometer wiring.
