Chapter 7: Setting Up the System Defaults

7.1 Introduction

Once you have installed your display unit and are familiar with its basic operation (described in Chapter 1 and Chapter 2), you need to set it up so that it obtains the correct information from the equipment you have connected it to, operates according to your requirements, and displays information according to your preferences.

This is achieved using the soft key controls that are displayed when you press

MENU

the MENU key.

In most cases, you will only need to use the MENU key options when you first set up your system. However, you may decide to change the way you have customized some aspects, such as the screen and help setting, as you become more familiar with your system.

Once you have set the values, they remain as the default settings until you reset them; they are retained even if you power off your display.

This chapter covers the following topics:

Changing the default set up parameters

System parameter functions and default settings

Radar-specific parameter functions and default settings

MARPA specific parameters and default settings

Advanced Radar functions

Chart specific parameter functions and default settings

You should check the functions of the parameters, and decide on the new settings, before making the changes.

Note: The SYSTEM SET UP menu option from the chartplotter display is the same as that accessed from theradar display SYSTEM SET UP menu.
