FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERISTICS
This chapter describes some of the most important functions
of the GEONAV, as well as the terms most commonly used in
this document.
Switching on/Switching off the unit
To switch the GEONAV on, keep the PWR key pressed until
the unit switches on. To switch the GEONAV off, keep the
PWR key pressed for more than 1 second.
Selecting marine or land mode
At start-up, the mode enabled is that active when switching
the unit off. To switch from marine navigation to road naviga-
tion, make sure that the cartridge storing the desired data
(marine or land) has been loaded, then select SETUP, NAVI-
GATION or MARINE NAVIGATOR.
Navigation mode (Automatic)
The GEONAV enters the Navigation mode as soon as the GPS
receiver transmits a valid fix. When in Navigation mode, the
manual cursor is not displayed.
This mode is also called automatic because the unit automati-
cally selects the chart scale and updates the boat’s position on
the screen.
Cursor mode (Manual)
When in Cursor mode, the manual cursor is displayed.It is
possible to edit a route, insert or delete markers, display navaid
information etc. By moving the joystick, the unit switches
from Navigation to Cursor mode, and the screen is centered in
relation to the manual cursor. To return to Navigation mode,
press PAGE/EXIT.
Chart rotation
Charts are traditionally displayed in north-up mode. This,
however, does not correspond to reality.
