Chapter 6: Further Chart Operations
6.1 Introduction
This chapter explains how to use the additional functions that are provided on
the HSB series chartplotter and combined radar/chartplotter.
It covers the following topics:
• Measuring distances and bearings on the chart, using the
VRM/EBL
key
• Setting alarms and timers
• Man Overboard (MOB)
• Cursor Echo
• GPS Setup
• Data Log Mode
In order to use some of these functions, you may need the following additional
data from equipment connected to your system via a HSB, SeaTalk, or NMEA
link:
Data Example source Integrated functions available
Heading Compass * - North Up or Course Up heading modes
COG GPS - MOB (if speed data also available)
Radar Radar system (via- - Radar data, either full-screen or in a
data HSB) half-screen window
Position GPS system - Waypoints
- Position, COG, SOG and time data in
Data Box and Nav Window
- MOB
- Data Log
Other data Transducers - Data Box and Nav Window data displays,
including speed, depth, wind, temperature
*
If heading data is available via both NMEA and SeaTalk, NMEA data takes
priority. For all other data, SeaTalk data takes priority (see Section 6.3 ).
