Navionics Chart cards
To use your E-Series Display as a navigation aid, charts with detailed information for
the area you wish to navigate are required. The charts are available on Navionics
®

area. Up to 6 Gold or 2 Platinum chart cards can be used in an E-Series Networked
system.

other compatible instruments using CompactFlash cards. To achieve the best results it
is recommended that SAN DISK

2.3 Functionality
For full functionality some applications require a dedicated transducer to provide
specific data. The table on
page 13
summarizes the data required by each application
and the major functions of your E-Series Display.
In particular, position, heading and speed data are required for the following functions:
• Orientation - requires heading data derived from a suitable compass, for the
radar to operate in North Up or Course Up mode and the chart to operate in Course
Up and Head Up modes.
•
Man Overboard (MOB)
- requires heading and speed data. Alternatively, use
speed over ground (SOG) and course over ground (COG) derived from the same
source as position data (GPS).
• Mini Automatic Radar Plotting Aid (MARPA) and radar/chart over-
lay functions
- requires accurate heading data. MARPA functionality is provided
if SOG and COG are also available. Increased accuracy will be obtained by using
fast heading data from a suitable compass, Smart heading sensor or compatible
Raymarine autopilot.
