Chapter 7: Setting Up the System Defaults
7.1 Introduction
Once you have installed your display unit and are familiar with its basic
operation (described in Chapters 1 and 2), you need to set it up so that it obtains
the correct information from the equipment you have connected it to, operates
according to your requirements, and displays information according to your
preferences.
This is achieved using the soft key controls that are displayed when you press
the MENU key.
Note: Although the factory default settings are suitable for normal radar or
chart operation, it is important that you check the bearing alignment when you
first install your Radar, and correct for any error using the alignment control in
the Radar Setup parameters (see Chapter 9).
In most cases, you will only need to use the MENU key options when you first
set up your system. However, you may decide to change the way you have
customised some aspects, such as the screen and help setting, as you become
more familiar with your system.
Once you have set the values, they remain as the default settings until you reset
them; they are retained even if you power off your display.
This chapter covers the following topics:
• Changing the default set up parameters
• System parameter functions and default settings
• Radar-specific parameter functions and default settings
• Advanced Radar functions
• Chart specific parameter functions and default settings
You should check the functions of the parameters, and decide on the new
settings, before making the changes.
Note: If you have a combined Radar/Chartplotter display, the
SYSTEM SET UP
menu option from the radar display is the same as that accessed from the chart
display
SYSTEM SET UP
menu.
