NOTE:

The Channel Select setting must match the actual hardware configuration of your RSS in order for the RSS to function. See Using the Advanced RSS for information about

changing the channel of your Advanced RSS manually using the wet switch on the Advanced RSS.

Channel A and B RSS Units

Your PiranhaMax unit comes with an Advanced RSS. This Advanced RSS may be programmed to either Channel A or Channel B. This A/B Channel option
gives you the flexibility to switch to a different channel if another angler is using a PiranhaMax30 or SmartCast™ unit within 150 feet of your RSS to reduce
possible interference. See 

Changing the Channel on the Advanced RSS

for details on selecting either Channel A or Channel B. 

NOTE:

RSS units, regardless of channel, may generate erratic depth readings as a result of sonar interference when used in close proximity (closer than 40 feet) to each other or to other sonar

devices.

Understanding the Advanced RSS

The Advanced RSS provides the following functionality:

• Water Surface Temperature

•  Blinking Light for nighttime use

• Grayscale Sonar Data

• A/B Channel Select.

When you are using the PiranhaMax in SmartCast™ mode, grayscale sonar data and water temperature will be displayed automatically on the screen.

You must manually program the Advanced RSS in order to turn the light on or off or to change the RSS channel setting to A or B. 

Default settings on new products are Light = OFF and Channel = A.
