Functional Characteristics
To insert a waypoint where the EBL and VRM intersect, press
ENTER ; to insert a marker, hold ENTER pressed.
Range and bearing values are displayed in the lower right-
hand side of the screen, together with the indication of the
function currently enabled. Press
CLR to disable the two func-
tions in sequence.
The VRM ring can also be used to set the range for navigation
from the coast, for example to avoid navigating out of the limit
allowed. In this case, set the EBL to any value, adjust the
VRM ring size as desired, then navigate making sure that at
least one point in the ring is always touching the coast.
Easy Pilot function
The Easy Pilot function allows editing temporarily a route set
and followed by the autopilot, but keeping the route unchanged.
This function is useful to make real time cor-
rections (e.g., because of other boats or to ap-
proach points of interests), without having to
edit the route planned or disable the autopilot.
To enable this function, rotate the knob and
position the EBL on the new route to follow,
then press
ENTER . The EBL will change color,
as the boat starts following the new route; the
planned route will be abandoned, although dis-
played. To go back to the planned route, thus
canceling the temporary correction, press
CLR
.
Overzoom
The Overzoom function allows expanding the chart range.
The Overzoom does not provide any additional chart detail,
only improves the readability of the available information, act-
ing as a magnifying glass.
When the Overzoom is enabled, the unit will add OVZ to the
scale displayed in the Navigation window.
