Northstar 6000i
Inserting a chart cartridge
The cartridge slot is located behind the
6000i’s keypad, which opens as shown in
Figure 2. The latch is at the left edge of the
door. Push it to the right to open the door.
The cartridge only fits correctly one way. If
it doesn’t slide in smoothly, try the other
way. Insert the cartridge gently but firmly
with one straight, smooth motion. A
cartridge can be safely inserted or removed
while the
6000i is turned on.
Be sure to close the door securely to
avoid water penetration!
Showing the cartridge name and date
Press the
CHART
key, and then the
Chart
setup
menu key at the right of the
CHART
screen. The cartridge name and date are
shown at the left of the
CHART STATUS
screen. The cartridge name displayed on
the left of the screen is its Navionics
catalog number.
Some older cartridges may not have this
information; in this case, the word
PRESENT
is shown in place of the name
and date. If no chart cartridge is installed,
the words
NONE INSERTED
are shown.
It usually takes 15 seconds or so to load
chart data after the
6000i is turned on or
after a new cartridge is inserted.
Accessing the regions contained in Navi-
onics XL3 series cartridges is described on
page 25.
Using the additional data on Gold charts is
described in
Setting up the chart screen
(Gold Charts), starting on page 33.
