Based on the installation angle, the trolling motor may not align with the center line of your boat. For the best
results, you should set the bow offset.
1 Adjust the angle of the trolling motor so it aligns with the center line of your boat , pointing straight
forward.
2 From the trolling motor bar, select > Calibrate > Bow Offset.

Networked Chartplotter and VHF Radio Functionality
If you have a NMEA 0183 VHF radio or a NMEA 2000 VHF radio connected to your chartplotter, these features
are enabled.
• The chartplotter can transfer your GPS position to your radio. If your radio is capable, GPS position
information is transmitted with DSC calls.
• The chartplotter can receive digital selective calling (DSC) distress and position information from the radio.
• The chartplotter can track the positions of vessels sending position reports.
If you have a Garmin NMEA 2000 VHF radio connected to your chartplotter, these features are also enabled.
• The chartplotter allows you to quickly set up and send individual routine call details to your Garmin VHF
radio.
• When you initiate a man-overboard distress call from your radio, the chartplotter shows the man-overboard
screen and prompts you to navigate to the man-overboard point.
• When you initiate a man-overboard distress call from your chartplotter, the radio shows the Distress Call
page to initiate a man-overboard distress call.
