Internal alarms
The internal alarms are as follows:
MOB alarm
If a MOB alarm occurs, the bearing and distance to the MOB location are
displayed, provided this information is available on SeaTalk. If the elapsed time
since the event is available, this is also displayed.
If bearing and distance information are NOT available, a Man Overboard symbol
is displayed, thus:
External alarms
An optional Auxiliary Alarm can be fitted at a convenient remote position, to give
a loud, audible indication if any one of a range of alarms occurs. This option is
particularly useful for situations where high ambient noise may make it difficult to
hear the instrument’s internal alarm (e.g. aboard a power boat).
Note:
An Auxiliary Alarm cannot be used if the
NMEA OUT
port is being used for NMEA
data.
