4.3 Transferring data using a PC

You can transfer waypoints or routes to and from your display and a PC or instrument, using NMEA.

With the RayTech V6.0 (or later) software you can transfer waypoints and routes via a CompactFlash memory card. Such transfers require that the PC is connected to the display’s NMEA port via

a serial data cable.

Transferring waypoint and route data

1.Press the DATA button.

2.Press the ARCHIVE AND TRANSFER softkey.

3.Press the TRANSFER ON NMEA softkey.

4.Press the appropriate softkey to send or receive NMEA data.

Note: The TRANSFER ON NMEA softkey is only available when compatible NMEA equipment is powered on and connected to your multifunction display.

4.4 Operating a networked display

You can connect an additional multifunction display for a more flexible and accessible system.

If you have multifunction displays connected together (using a crossover coupler or a SeaTalkhs switch), you can input, edit, and view data across all displays. However, there are some functions and settings that are not ’seen’ or shared by all displays on your network. These exceptions are detailed below.

Exceptions

The following functions and local settings only affect the multifunction display that you are currently using:

Video — the picture from any video/camera source will only be shown on the display that the video/camera is physically connected to.

Page set — selecting a set, name, and applications for a particular page.

Power On/Off button (including Day/Night settings).

The ACTIVE window function.

The displayed panel in the Data and Engine Data applications.
