Chapter 4: Setting up the chartplotter

4.1 Introduction

When you have installed your system and are familiar with its basic operation, you may wish to set it up to operate according to your requirements and display information according to your preferences.

This is achieved using the function controls which are displayed when you press the PAGE key. These settings can be changed at any time.

When you have set your preferences, they maintain until you reset them; they are retained even when the unit is powered off.

This chapter covers the following topics:

•System parameters and default settings

•Chartplotter-specific parameters and default settings

The set up parameters are divided into three sections:

•System, controlling overall functionality

•Chart, controlling the chartplotting functions, including waypoint information and vectors.

•GPS, displaying the associated GPS (RC420) receiver status and dGPS set up (RC420D).

Note: The additional TRACK SET UP function is covered in Chapter 3,
