Calibrate
:
The fuel options can
be calibrated only
when the optional
single or twin engine
kit is installed on
petrol/gasoline
engines.
Speed
Calibration may
be required because different hull shapes have
different flow characteristics.
Obtain an accurate measurement of the boat's
speed from a GPS receiver; or by following
3-9 Setup > Calibrate
another boat travelling at a known speed; or by
making a timed run over a known distance.
Note: for accurate calibration:
•
The speed from a GPS receiver should be
greater than 5 knots.
•
The speed from another paddlewheel
transducer should be between 5 and 20
knots.
•
Best results are achieved in calm conditions
where there is minimal current (best at high
or low tide).
Use the cursor keys to display the speed readout box,
then increase or decrease the readout to match the
independent speed value.
Speed
Select from:
•
kn (knots)
•
mph (miles per hour)
•
kph (kilometres per hour)
