Connecting a Wireless Device to the Chartplotter

Before you can connect a wireless device to the chartplotter 

wireless network, you must configure the chartplotter wireless 

network (

page 24

).

You can connect a wireless device to the chartplotter to share 

data. For example, you can connect an iOS® device to the 

chartplotter to share BlueChart Mobile data.

1

From the iOS device, select 

Settings

 > 

Wi-Fi

.

2

Select the wireless network name you entered for the 

chartplotter network (

page 24

).

3

Enter the password you entered when you set up the 

chartplotter as a wireless network.

Navigation

.

Arrival

: Sets an alarm to sound when you are within a specified 

distance or time from a turn or a destination.

Anchor Drag

: Sets an alarm to sound when you exceed a 

specified drift distance while anchored.

Off Course

: Sets an alarm to sound when you are off course by 

a specified distance.

System Alarms

Alarm Clock

: Sets an alarm clock.

Device Voltage

: Sets an alarm to sound when the battery 

reaches a specified low voltage.

GPS Accuracy

: Sets an alarm to sound when the GPS location 

accuracy falls outside the user-defined value.

Setting the Fuel Alarm

Before you can set a fuel level alarm, a compatible fuel flow 

sensor must be connected to the NMEA 2000 network.
You can set an alarm to sound when the total amount of 

remaining onboard fuel reaches the level you specify.

.

2

Enter the remaining amount of fuel that triggers the alarm.

Setting Weather Alarms

Before you can set weather alarms, you must have a 

compatible chartplotter connected to a weather device, such as 

a GXM™ device, and have a valid weather subscription.

1

Select 

Settings

 > 

Alarms

 > 

Weather

.

2

Turn on alarms for specific weather events.

Units Settings

Select 

Settings

 > 

Units

.

System Units

: Sets the unit format for the device.

Heading

: Sets the direction references used in calculating 

heading information. Auto Mag Var (automatic magnetic 

variation) sets the magnetic declination for your location 

automatically. True sets true north as the heading reference. 

Grid sets grid north as the heading reference (000º). User 

Mag Var allows you to enter the magnetic variation value 

manually.

Position Format

: Sets the position format in which a given 

location reading appears. Do not change this setting unless 

you are using a map or chart that specifies a different 

position format.

Map Datum

: Sets the coordinate system on which the map is 

structured. Do not change this setting unless you are using a 

map or chart that specifies a different map datum.

Pressure Reference Time

: Sets the reference time used to 

calculate the barometer trend. The trend is indicated in the 

barometer field.

Time Format

: Sets a 12-hour, 24-hour, or UTC time format.

Time Zone

: Sets the time zone, or allows automatic selection 

based on GPS location.

Navigation Settings

NOTE: 

Some settings and options require additional charts or 

hardware.
Select 

Settings

 > 

Navigation

.

Route Labels

: Sets the type of labels shown with route turns on 

the map.

Auto Guidance

: Sets the measurements for the 

Safe Depth

Safe Height

, and 

Shoreline Distance

, when you are using 

some premium maps.

Turn Transition Activation

: Sets the turn transition to be 

calculated based on time or distance.

Turn Transition Time

: Sets how many minutes before the turn 

that you transition to it as the next leg, when 

Time

 is 

selected for the 

Turn Transition Activation

. You can raise 

this value to help improve the accuracy of the autopilot when 

navigating a route or an Auto Guidance line with many 

frequent turns or at higher speeds. For straighter routes or 

slower speeds, lowering this value can improve autopilot 

accuracy.

Turn Transition Distance

: Sets how far before the turn that 

you transition to it as the next leg, when 

Distance

 is selected 

for the 

Turn Transition Activation

. You can raise this value 

to help improve the accuracy of the autopilot when 

navigating a route or an Auto Guidance line with many 

frequent turns or at higher speeds. For straighter routes or 

slower speeds, lowering this value can improve autopilot 

accuracy.

Route Start

: Selects a starting point for route navigation.

Auto Guidance Line Configurations

 CAUTION

The Safe Depth and Safe Height settings influence how the 

chartplotter calculates an Auto Guidance line. If an area has an 

unknown water depth or an unknown obstacle height, the Auto 

Guidance line is not calculated in that area. If an area at the 

beginning or the end of an Auto Guidance line is shallower than 

the safe water depth or lower than the safe obstacle height, the 

Auto Guidance line is not calculated in that area. On the chart, 

the course through those areas appears as a gray line. When 

your boat enters one of those areas, a warning message 

appears.

NOTE: 

Auto Guidance is available with premium charts, in 

some areas.
You can set the parameters the chartplotter uses when 

calculating an Auto Guidance line.

Safe Depth

: Sets the minimum depth (chart depth datum) the 

chartplotter uses when calculating an Auto Guidance line.

Safe Height

: Sets the minimum height (chart height datum) of a 

bridge that your boat can safely travel under.

Shoreline Distance

: Sets how close to the shore you want the 

Auto Guidance line to be placed. The Auto Guidance line 

may move if you change this setting while navigating. The 

available values for this setting are relative, not absolute. To 

ensure that the Auto Guidance line is placed the appropriate 

distance from shore, you can assess the placement of the 

Auto Guidance line using one or more familiar destinations 

that require navigation through a narrow waterway 

(
