If for any reason depth information is lost, the DEPTH title will flash once per second and the displayed depth value will be the last good reading.

Depth alarm threshold displays

The alarm threshold displays are available if the instrument is operating as a master. Each display is identified by the presence of an alarm symbol ( )and either an up arrow for a shallow alarm or a down arrow for a deep alarm. The shallow and deep anchor alarms are identified by means of an additional anchor icon.

You can enable and disable individual alarm thresholds by pressing the reset key for 2 seconds, while the relevant alarm threshold is displayed.

Each alarm threshold is displayed for a nominal 7 seconds, and if no action is taken during that time, the display will timeout to the current depth display.

Adjusting alarm thresholds

To adjust the alarm threshold levels, press the trip and reset keys simultaneously to enter adjust mode, then use either the trip key (to decrease) or the reset key (to increase) the threshold value. When you have set the required value, press the trip and reset keys again, to save the alarm setting and exit the adjust mode.

Note: Adjustment of the shallow alarm threshold can be disabled during calibration. When adjustment is disabled, you cannot enter adjust mode.

Speed

Use the speed key to select the required information, as shown in the Using the speed key illustration. The speed measurement units are either knots (KTS), miles per hour (MPH) or kilometres per hour (KMH), as selected during user calibration (see Chapter 4, Calibration).

The maximum speed, average speed and VMG to windward are each displayed for a nominal 7 seconds, and if no action is taken during that time, the display will timeout to the Boat speed display.
