Chapter 2: Getting Started

2.1 Introduction

This chapter provides information, instructions and a simple familiarization exercise in using the display. Operating information is detailed in Chapter 3.

Conventions Used

Throughout this handbook, the dedicated (labelled) keys are shown in bold capitals; for example, ENTER. The soft key functions, menu names and options are shown in normal capitals; for example, SCREEN.

Operating procedures, which may consist of a single key-press or a sequence of numbered steps, are indicated by a ➤ symbol in the margin.

Simulator

The plotter display unit includes a Simulator mode, which allows you to practice operating your plotter without data from a GPS antenna. You will need to use the set up options to switch the display unit to Simulator mode, see Section 2.2, Power On/Off. You can use it in either of two ways:

•Before the plotter has been installed on your vessel. In this case, you only need to connect the plotter display unit to a 12V DC power sup- ply, fused at 1A, connecting the red core from the power lead to posi- tive (+) and the black core to negative (-); see Cable Running on page 5-11for full details.

•After the plotter has been installed on your vessel, but while in the marina or at anchor.

2.2Power On/Off

➤To turn the display unit on, press the POWER key.

The keys light up and the introductory logo is displayed.

The GPS Status screen is displayed as shown in Figure 2-1.
