    Solix questions

    New to bird, a couple of basic questions:
    1) is there a operators manual loaded on the unit? if so, how do you access it? I cannot find it so far.
    2) Is there any way to get rid of or tone down the depth gridlines on 2d and ds screens?

    I had the Onix but have recently upgraded to the Solix. As previously stated the Onix did have the operators manual loaded but it never got updated with follow-on firmware updates so it became outdated. I much prefer downloading the pdf of the operators manual to my phone and iPad so I can access it with them anyway.
