USING THE PLATINUM ID 120
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING THE PLATINUM ID
This section provides complete information on operating the Platinum ID through its
front panel controls. You are encouraged to read this information completely as you first
learn to use the Platinum ID; doing so will ensure you make the most of its many
features and functions.
The first part of this section explains the use of the built-in simulator, which you can use
to practice selecting instructions through the front panel. The remaining instructions,
which can be followed while using the simulator or in actual operation, explain each
function and are organized according to the front panel layout.
The Platinum ID includes a built-in simulator that helps you learn to use your new
equipment. The simulator displays a typical underwater scene, and lets you practice
with the controls.
USING THE BUILT-IN SIMULATOR
The unit must be powered off before you start the simulator. To activate it, press down
and hold the POWER button until a chirping sound begins. Release the button, and the
built-in simulator begins displaying a typical Platinum ID reading.
You can use the simulator to learn the functions explained in the following pages, just
as if you were getting actual on-the-water readings (but note that “Sensitivity” is
disabled). To turn off the simulator, turn off the unit by pressing the POWER button
again.
Of course, the best way to learn to use the platinum ID is with actual use, especially in
familiar waters. If you know what’s below and see it on-screen, you’ll quickly become a
Platinum ID expert.
