How to know the distance of the boat
from the shore and the target point
You can see an option [Home pos.] on the display.
This option represents the distance from the boat to the
origin.
Note: This product defaults to the point of origin when
the GPS receiver is powered on. Therefore, if you turn
on the GPS receiver on the shore, the [Home pos.]
represents the distance that the boat leaves the shore.
You can set any point as the origin.
The option [Dest Distance] represents the distance
between the boat and the target point.
How to set a point as the origin
1) In the [Go to] menu, select [Set Homepos] and press ENTER key. Now the
boat’s location is successfully set.
So the option [Home pos
.
