Once the Simulator mode is selected, the next screen will allow you to select either "down" simulator or
"side" simulator. The "down" selection simulates normal operation of the unit with the Tri-beam transducer
connected. "Down" simulator is the default setting, so if no adjustment is made, the down simulator will be
selected. The "side" simulator simulates operation with a Wide Side transducer connected. This is an
excellent way to see if you like the way the unit works using the optional Wide Side transducer.
When in Simulator operation, the Wide Paramount responds to control inputs as if it is in actual operation,
so feel free to experiment with the many features and functions to customize the Wide Paramount for
your particular operation. The unit will also simulate the Temp/Speed accessory by showing water
temperature and boat speed readings. To exit Simulator mode, power the unit off.
FEATURE MEMORY
If your Wide Paramount is installed with a transducer connected, any changes you make to the user
settings (see Control Functions) while in Simulator are retained in the unit's memory. This allows you to
use simulator to experiment with the various set-up options, and retain your selected settings for normal
operation.
If you are using the Wide Paramount in Simulator when no transducer is connected, any selected options
are lost when the unit is powered off. The Wide Paramount will return to Factory Settings, or options
selected when last used with a transducer, if no transducer is connected.
IMPORTANT. A transducer must be connected to the Wide Paramount in order to retain user settings
selected when in simulator mode. If no transducer is detected, the unit defaults to pre-selected options
when powered off.
WHAT YOU SEE ON-SCREEN
Your Wide Paramount uses a 240 x 320 matrix film Super-Twist LCD display. This type of display
provides outstanding viewability in all light conditions over a wide range of temperatures.
The presentation of information on-screen may take one of several forms depending on the type of
transducer being used, whether or not the Temp/Speed sensor is connected, and the current setting of
various user options. See Advanced Operation for information on custom screen options.
NOTE: When in simulator mode, the word "simulator" occasionally appears on the display indicating that
the information onscreen is not real sonar data.
The initial screen layout takes one of two basic forms depending on whether the Temp/Speed accessory
is installed. Figure A shows the default view when the Temp/Speed accessory is not installed. The digital
depth number shows the depth of water directly beneath the transducer location.
The range of the graphic display is shown to the right of the graphic information. The upper number is "0"
indicating the surface of the water, the lower number is one of the 10 ranges available which best
matches the depth of the water. As the depth of the water changes, the range changes as necessary in
order to retain a bottom representation on-screen.
When in Auto mode, the horizontal line at the top of the graphics area is the 0 line which represents the
surface of the water. Occasionally there will be a gap in this line. This gap is intentional and indicates that
the unit is updating the display even if the bottom is not visible on-screen, or if the bottom information is
not changing.
