Chartplotter Operation
Before operating the chartplotter read and understand the
vendor supplied owner’s manual including all the warning
information.
These chartplotters feature “touch” screens. When you
see information groups on the screen use your fi nger to
touch the format desired. With some information in par-
ticular it is required that you actually drag an object by us-
ing your fi nger and keeping it on the screen as you move
the object.
A. To power the system the “house” battery needs to be
activated by the battery switch at the battery management
panel.
B. Next, turn the helm electronics switch to the “on” po-
sition. This powers up the GPS antenna and the auto pi-
lot. The chartplotter is now ready to power up.

warning screen appears, touch I agree. At this point you
will be taken to the home page screen.
