To minimize these types of problems, the
SE-200
includes an
STC Adjustment. STC stands for Surface
Time Constant and you can use it to force the
SE-200 to
ignore surface clutter. By default, the
STC is set to 5
feet - meaning that the digital depth and alarms will
ignore anything closer than 5’ to the transducer. The
clutter will still be displayed, just not used to calculate the
digital depth or sound an alarm.
If you are having problems with the digital depth or
alarms because of excessive surface clutter, you can
increase or decrease the exclusion range as shown at
right.
From the S
ET-UP menu, choose MORE and from that
menu choose
MORE again. Then press the button below
the
STC Symbol as shown at right. That will bring up a
display showing the
STC adjustment line as shown. Use
the
NAV key to adjust up or down to ignore the clutter
area and then press the
EXIT symbol to save and return
to a normal display.
After making this adjustment, the surface clutter will still
remain on the display but will be ignored by the alarm
and digital depth functions.
Software Setup
The software in the
SE-200 can be configured to act as an
SE-200A, SE-200B or SE-200C, depending on the trans-
ducer(s) installed.
To change the software setup, choose
MORE from the
SET-UP menu, then choose MORE again to reach the
S
oftware Setup Page. Push the softkey below the the
Software Setup selections until the desired software is
selected and then press the
Exit Softkey. The unit will
then turn off. After 5 seconds turn the unit back on and
go to the SE
T-UP menu to make sure the SE-200 soft-
ware is correct.
