4.1.3 Speed calculation
Speed is normally entered automatically, from your navigator. If the navigator fails,
manually enter speed.
1. Rotate the Course control knob to select [SPEED CALCULATION] from the [PA-
RAMETER SETUP] menu.
2. Push the Course control knob to show the options for [SPEED CALCULATION].
3. Rotate the Course control knob to select [AUTO] or [MANUAL] then push the
knob. For [AUTO] go to step 4. For MANUAL, do as follows:
1) Rotate the Course control knob to select the current value then push the
knob.
2) Rotate the Course control knob to set a value (0.1 - 99.0).
4. Push the Course control knob to finish.
4.2 Net Towing
When a boat is towing fishing gear its stern is "dragged" by the net. This causes the
boat to stray from its intended course. To keep the boat on course, you need to adjust
the trim manually, which can be bothersome. If you do not want to be bothered with
trim adjustments, you can enable the automatic towing function to have the trim auto-
matically adjusted. This feature is useful for trawlers and purse seiners.
[SHIP’S CHARACTERISTICS] must be set for “other than sailboat” to get this feature.
1. Open the [OTHER MENU] followed by the [AUTO OPTION] menu.
2. Rotate the Course control knob to select [NET TOWING AUTO] then push the
knob.
3. Rotate the Course control knob to select [OFF] or [ON].
4. Push the Course control knob to finish.
Note that you must keep the boat on a straight course before the AUTO mode is se-
lected.
