a
Select the
Update Rate
for the catch monitoring sensor.
This parameter is used to select how often the FM90 can expect to receive
information from the sensor. A faster update rate gives you information more
often, but will decrease the battery life.
Note
The
Update Rate
parameter is very important. The value you choose
here must comply to the value programmed into the sensor. If these do not match,
the communication between the FM90 and the sensor will not work.
If you use the Simrad PX MultiSensor, the
Update Rate
is fixed. You must always
choose Normal update rate.
