When the Ultra Classic is turned on, FishTrack is enabled. To turn the
FishTrack feature off, press the menu key, then press the up or down
arrow keys until the FISH ID menu appears. Now press the left arrow key.
Pressing it once switches the FishTrack  feature off, but leaves Fish ID on.
To turn FishTrack on, press the right arrow key, which highlights the
"TRACK" label on the Fish ID menu.

CHART SETUP
The Ultra Classic lets you customize
the chart screen. To do this, press the
MENU key, then press the up or down
arrow keys until the "CHART SETUP"
menu appears. Now press the right
arrow key. The screen shown at right
appears.

The digital depth display at the top left
corner of the screen normally shows
in large numbers. You can change this
to smaller numbers or turn it off com-
pletely using the "Show Digital" menu
at the top of this screen.

You can also turn the temperature, speedometer, distance log, zoom bar,
zone alarm bar, fastrak, and cursor on or off using this menu. See below
for more information on these items.

FASTRAK
This feature converts all echoes to
short horizontal lines on the display’s
far right side. The graph continues to
operate normally. FASTRAK gives you
a rapid update of conditions directly
under the boat. This makes it useful
for ice fishing, or when you’re fishing
at anchor. Since the unit is not mov-
ing, fish signals are long, drawn out
lines on a normal chart display.
FASTRAK converts the graph to a
vertical bar graph that, with practice,
makes a useful addition to fishing at a
stationary location.

To turn FASTRAK on, highlight the "Show Fastrak" label on the "Chart
