Settings Water Speed Averaging Averages water speed by measuring your speed at a selected interval. Water speed intervals range from one to 30 seconds. If you select five seconds, your water speed will be recorded every five seconds, then averaged. To select a Water Averaging interval : 1. Highlight the Water Speed Averaging box on the Installation menu. 2. Press the keypad left/right to select the desired interval. 3. Highlight OK and press enter. Temperature Calibration When there are differences in temperature data, Temperature Calibration calibrates data from one temperature sensor with date from another temperature source. That ensures the accuracy of temperature data from the selected temperature sensor. To calibrate Temperature: Water Temp calibration dialog box 1. Select the Temperature Calibration text box from the Installation menu and press enter. The Water Temperature Calibration dialog box will appear. 2. Use the arrow keys to enter the percentage difference between temperature sources. Select OK and press enter. NOTE: If the temperature sensor is reading a lower temperature than the other temperature source, you will input a positive (+) percentage. Conversely, a negative (-) percentage will be entered if the temperature sensor is reading a higher temperature than the other temperature source. Temperature Averaging Averages temperature by measuring temperature data at a selected interval. Temperature intervals range from one to 30 seconds. If you select five seconds, your temperature will be averaged using measurements taken every five seconds. 83
