System Settings

Select MENU > SYSTEM.
DISPLAY: Sets the backlight and contrast levels.
BEEPER: Sets the volume or disables the beeper tone that sounds when you press a key or turn a dial.
AUTO POWER-ON: Sets the radio to turn on automatically when it receives power.
LANGUAGE: Sets the language for the radio.

Number Settings

You can customize the numbers shown on the home screen of the radio.
Select MENU > SYSTEM > NUMBERS.
LAT/LONG: Shows or hides the latitude and longitude numbers provided by the GPS position, or from manually-

entered position data.

TIME: Shows or hides the time provided by the GPS acquisition, or from manually-entered information.

NOTE: The time updates automatically only if you acquire a GPS position. When you enter your time and 
position manually, the time shown does not update automatically. For manually entered position and time 
data, the time of entry is always shown on the home screen, even if you hide the time with this setting.

COG/SOG: Shows or hides course-over-ground (COG) and speed-over-ground (SOG) information.

NOTE: You must acquire a GPS position to show course-over-ground (COG) and speed-over-ground (SOG) 
information.

Units Settings

You can set the unit of measure used for values shown on the radio.
Select MENU > SYSTEM > UNITS.
SPEED: Sets the unit of measure shown for speed-related fields, such as speed-over-ground.
TIME > FORMAT: Sets the time format.
HEADING: Sets the radio to show all heading calculations, such as Course Over Ground (COG), using true or 

magnetic north.
NOTE: If the radio is configured for NMEA 2000 communication, the heading unit is set to AUTO, and shows 
heading data based on the information provided over the network. This setting cannot be changed.

Configuring the Time Offset

You can show the local time rather than Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). When you adjust for local time, LOC 
appears after the time on the home screen.
NOTE: When you make a DSC call, the time is sent in UTC format.
Select MENU > SYSTEM > UNITS > TIME > OFFSET.
Turn the ENTER dial to adjust the time offset from UTC.
Select OK.

Selecting the Frequency Band

You can switch between the USA, International, or Canadian frequency bands (

Channel Lists, page 23

).

NOTE: Not all frequency bands are available on all device models.
Select MENU > CHANNEL > FREQUENCY BAND.
Select a frequency band.
