12 Calibration

To get the most out of your Nexus Network, it is important to carefully calibrate the Network. The calibration values are stored in a non volatile memory.

To access calibration mode, press and hold SET more than 2 seconds.

To select a calibration code, press MINUS, PLUS and PAGE as required.

To return to normal mode, press SET when the text return (RET) is displayed.

The different calibration routines are divided into five groups:

C10 - calibration of SPEED

C20 - calibration of DEPTH

C30 - calibration of NAVIGATE

C50 - calibration of WIND

C70 - calibration of Network and NMEA settings

To change a calibration value, press SET.

To select calibration value, press MINUS, PLUS and PAGE as required.

To lock the selected value, press SET

12.1.1C10 Return (RET)

To return to normal mode, press SET.

12.1.2C11 (Unit KTS)

Unit for speed. Knots (KTS), km/h (K/h) or miles/h (m/h).

12.1.3C12 (1.25 CAL)

Calibration value for speed and distance (1.00 - 1.99).

Drive the boat a measured distance at normal speed.

Compare the distance with the trip counter.

Calculate the value with the following formula:

True distance from the sea chart :

T

Log trip counter distance:

L

The current calibration value:

C

New calibration value.

N

If you suspect a current in the water, drive the boat in both directions and divide trip counter distance by 2.
