This is useful to zoom to a small scale to track small boat movements or if there is no detailed chart for an area.
14-3 Setup > GPS Static Navigation Press once or more until the Setup menu is displayed, then select GPS: When the boat stops or moves very slowly, the calculated GPS speed and course become erratic. Static navigation is a number, and the options are: • 0.01 to 99.9:If the boat speed is slower than this, the speed is displayed as zero and the course stays unchanged. • 0(Off): The calculated speed and course are always used.
14-4 Setup > Fuel Fuel setup requires optional petrol/gasoline or SmartCraft sensors to be installed. Set Num engines first to enable the fuel functions. Press one or more times until the Setup menu is displayed, then select Fuel: Twin engine installations require each fuel transducer to be calibrated. This can be done at the same time with two portable tanks or at different times using one portable tank. Calibrating the fuel transducer(s) requires accurate measurement of the fuel consumption.
Speed source The Flow filter can be set from 0 to 30 seconds. Use the lowest value which gives a stable flow. Usually a value of 5 to 10 seconds will give a satisfactory result for two-stroke carburettor engines. Fuel injected or fourstroke engines may require a larger value. If both paddlewheel sensor and GPS speeds are available, select the source of speed readings for fuel calculations. If there is a current or tide, these speeds and the fuel calculation results will be different.
14-6 Setup > Logs Press one or more times until the Setup menu is displayed, then select Logs: The values can be changed independently of each other. These log values are saved when the unit is turned off. Reset trip dist This resets the trip distance to zero. Reset total dist This option resets the total distance to zero. Reset engine hours Use this option to reset the engine hours to zero. This can be useful after an engine service or to count the engine hours between service intervals.
