Other Showdown 5.6 Features
Backlight
— Your Showdown 5.6 offers a warm “nightglow” backlight that
actually accentuates the pixels in the display. Can be turned on or off by
briefly pressing the
POWER
button after unit is
ON
.
Neoprene Carry Bag
— Protects your Showdown 5.6 during storage, use and
transport. Exterior hook and loop flap seals out dust and moisture.
Interior Transducer Pocket
— Small mesh pocket inside neoprene carrying
case. Always place your transducer in this pocket when not in use.
Adjustable Transducer Arm
— Your Showdown 5.6 is equipped with an
extendable and adjustable transducer arm which directs the transducer over
your ice fishing hole. Coupled with the round rubber transducer cable
stopper which fits over the top of the arm clip, this handy item keeps your
transducer level in the water at all times for optimal signal return. When not
in use, the arm folds up, and fits snugly inside the neoprene carrying bag.
Digital Depth
— The digital depth display on the Showdown 5.6 sonar
provides a quick and easy way to determine depth. Digital Depth is always
displayed in the bottom-right of the view screen (unless
NOISE
or
SENS
are
being adjusted). In addition, digital depth scale indices show to the left of
the display area for quickly determining the depth of fish or your lure.
Simulator
— To trigger the Showdown 5.6 Simulator mode, start with unit
turned
OFF
. Press and hold the
POWER
button for approximately 5-
seconds. You should see the “
SIMU
” indicator bar appear at the top right of
the display.
Simulator mode shows how bottom, a lure and fish might appear
on the unit if you were fishing in 32’ of water. It also allows you to adjust and
learn
various sonar settings before you get out fishing. To turn Simulator
mode off, it is necessary to turn your Showdown 5.6 power
OFF
by holding
down the
POWER
button again.
Low Battery Warning
— When battery power reaches very low levels, a low
battery indicator will appear and flash at the top right of the display. An
audible beep will also sound every 30 seconds. This signifies that it is time to
recharge the battery, or replace it with a fully charged spare.
WARNING
:
When you see and hear this warning, the Showdown 5.6 may shut down
within minutes.
“Last Settings” Memory
— Your Showdown 5.6 automatically remembers the
settings you used last. So when it is turned
OFF
and then
ON
again, your
previous settings will be preserved and active.
