Mounting Your CoxOrb
CoxOrbs can be supplied with a mounting cup and will also fit existing mounting cups and
moulded-in holders. The spherical back allows the unit to be angled to suit the user.
Setting the Clock
To set the Time and Date start with the CoxOrb turned on in ‘STOP’ mode and hold the
‘CLOCK’ button for 8 seconds. ‘12hr’ will flash and you can press the Volume control buttons
to switch between 12 and 24-hour mode. After 3 seconds of inactivity the unit will select
your chosen format and switch to flashing the next data set. Hours, minutes and the date
can be set in the same way. Note that in 12 hour mode A & P are displayed to distinguish
between AM and PM.
Adjusting the Microphone
The microphone arm can be bent to bring the microphone closer to your mouth. However
this must be done gently and you must be careful not to make a sharp bend in the tube.
Please note that the warranty on the microphone only covers manufacturing faults. The
CoxOrb must never be picked up and carried using the microphone cable. Also the microphone
arm must only be gently reset to suit the user, bending it repeatedly will break it!
Why does my unit sometimes take a few seconds to display rate?
The CoxOrb accelerometer can take up to 40 seconds to recalibrate if the angle of the CoxOrb is
changed.
Is my CoxOrb compatible with the NK and Coxmate wiring looms we have in other boats?
Yes, CoxOrbs are fully compatible with both NK and Coxmate wiring looms.
I was charging my CoxOrb when it started flashing ‘MEM’, I unplugged the charger but the
unit continued to flash ‘MEM’ for another 5 mins and then returned to normal?
During the last 5-10 mins of charging your unit will occasionally complete a memory clean up
and during this process the unit is not usable. When memory clean up is in progress the unit will
display ‘MEM’.
The Audio/Charging connector is starting to wear out on my CoxOrb. Can I replace it?
Yes, the CoxOrb incorporates a user replaceable connector block.
How long will a battery pack last, before it needs to be replaced?
You can expect approximately 3 years life out of your battery pack.
