7.1 Anchor Watch Display
The Anchor Watch Display is a graphical representation of an Anchor Alert. See Section 8.3.7.9 for
details on how to set up the Anchor Alert.
Figure 241
– Anchor Watch Display Example
The display is centered on the position at which the anchor is dropped; this point is represented by
the anchor symbol. The control is always oriented North-up, with the boundary circle located at the
Alert Set Point distance from the anchor position. The position of the vessel is represented by the
boat symbol. This is oriented according to the heading of the boat.
You may use the control mode of the display to easily set the Anchor Drop position as follows. In
order to set the Anchor Drop position using the display, create a screen with an Anchor Watch
display.
In normal operating mode, use the “Scroll Up” and “Scroll Down” keys to change to the screen
containing the Anchor Watch display. Once that screen is displayed, follow these steps to set the
Anchor Drop position:
1.
Press the “Enter” key for approximately one second. This will place the display into “Control
mode”, and one of the controllable items on the screen will be highlighted with a thick border.
2.
If there is more than one controllable item on the screen, you may use the “Scroll Up” and
“Scroll Down” keys to change the highlight to the Anchor Watch display.
3.
Once the Anchor Watch display is selected, then press the “Power” key. You will then see a
confirmation popup asking whether it is okay to set the Anchor Drop position to the current
position. If you answer “Yes”, then the Anchor Drop position will be set to the current GPS
position.
