IMPORTANT ALARM NOTES

Anchor Alarm - The anchor alarm may be triggered even when you're sitting still. This can happen when using a small (less than

.05 mile) anchor alarm range.

Arrival Alarm - If you set the arrival alarm's distance to a small number and you run a route (see the Navigate Routes segment), this unit may not show navigation data to the next waypoint, once you arrive at the first one. You may not be able to come close enough to the first waypoint to trip the arrival alarm.

NMEA 2000 Alarms

The NMEA 2000 Alarm can be set to monitor multiple EP-10 Fuel Flow and EP-15 Fluid Level sensors. You can set a threshold for each alarm in its corresponding Percent box. Thresholds give you control over when the alarm will go off. You may want the alarm to go off when the black water tank is filled to 75 percent of its capacity, likewise, you may want to know when the fuel level falls below 30 percent of tank capacity.

To get to the NMEA 2000 Alarms menu, press MENUMENU, select ALARMS and press ENT. Choose NMEA 2000 ALARMS and press ENT.

1.With the Fluid Level Device window highlighted, press ENT and use ↑ ↓ to select the device you want to monitor, then press ENT.

2.To enable the Full Alarm, highlight FULL ALARM Enabled box and press ENT to turn on (check) the alarm. Press to the Percent box and press ENT. Use the ↑ ↓ keys to select the first number, then press to move to the next number. When the desired percentage has been en- tered, press ENT.
