About the Tide Graph Mode
The Tide Graph Mode shows the changing of the tides in graphic form. The graph
uses time (advancing from left to right) as the horizontal axis, and tide change as the
vertical axis.
You can enter the Tide Graph Mode by pressing A while in the Moon Data Mode.
Though you can change the time setting while in the Tide Graph Mode, you cannot
change the month or day setting. To display the tide graph for another date, return to
the Moon Data Mode, change the date setting, and then enter the Tide Graph Mode
again. Also note that you cannot directly change the month setting in the Moon Data
Mode. The month setting changes automatically as you increase or decrease the
day setting.
The Tidal Graph is also on the display in the Timekeeping Mode, where it indicates
the tide for the current time.
