NMEA COMMUNICATION The UItraNavGPS sends data out the white wire on the power cable according to standanis set by the NMEA Association). This allows the UltraNavGPS _____________________ to send position, depth, and navigation infor- mation to "listener' units, such as charting instruments, autopilots, and other marine instruments.
___________ For example, suppose you are anchored at a location that is accurately However, situations occur where it becomes necessary to increase or decrease the sensitivity. This typically happens when you wish to see more detail, so an increase in sensitivity is indicated.
CHANGING STARTUP SETFINGS The UItraNavGPS must be initialized when it's turned on for the first time. This is described at the beginning of the GPS section in this manual. However, if you wish to change only one of the parameters (such as time), use the menu features in the "CHANGE SETUP" menu.

Saving Present Position - View and Save Method The "Quick Save" feature doesn't let you select the waypoint number. You have to use the next available number when using that method. The View and Save method lets you pick the waypoint number that your present position is stored in.
SONAR MENU - PAGE 2 FASTRAK This feature converts all echoes to short horizontal lines on the display's far right side. The graph continues to operate normally. FASTRAK gives you a rapid update of conditions di- rectly under the boat. This makes it useful for ice fishing, or when you're fishing at anchor.
The destination waypoint number displays in the lower left corner of the screen. In this example, waypoint number 10 is the destination. Your present position shows at the bottom of the screen.

ACCURACY You may have heard tales of extraordinary accuracy from GPS receivers. The DOD requires accuracy of 10 to 15 meters from the satellite system. However, only the military gets this precision. The way the military keeps us and other unauthorized people from using the more precise system is coding.
Both 8 degree and 20 degree transducers give accurate bottom read- ings, even though the bottom signal is much wider on the 20 degree model. This is because you are seeing more of the bottom. Remem- ber, the shallow edge of the signal shows you the true depth.

Very small fish probably will not arch at all. Medium sized fish will show a partial arch, or a shape similar to an arch if they're in deep water. Large fish will arch, but turn the sensitivity up in deeper water to see the arch. Because of water conditions, such as heavy surface clutter, thermoclines, etc.
IMPORTANT SERVICE INFORMATION! If your unit is not working, or if you need technical help, please usethe following troubleshooting section before contacting a service center or the factory cus- tomer service department. It may save you the trouble of returning your unit.
Weak bottom echo, digital readings erratic, or no fish signals (cont.): 2. Electrical noisefromthe boat's motorcan interfere with the sonar. This causes the sonar to automatically increase its Discrimination or noise rejection feature. This can cause the unit to eliminate weakersignals such as fish oreven structure from the display.
