11 Alarms
The GB40 has various alarms that you can switch On/Off and
customize to suit your vessel.
These alarms can automatically:
• notify you of the vessel's status (for example, when you're
approaching a waypoint)
• alert you to potentially dangerous situations (for example,
when you're drifting off course).
When an alarm is triggered:
• an alarm icon flashes.
• the main menu area may be overlain by the Alarm Notification
box (depending on the type of alarm).
• the alarm audio will sound once or continuously until you
acknowledge it or it resets automatically. It will interrupt any
other audio that is playing, such as the music jukebox. (You
can choose not to sound the audio alarm.)
The alarm is recorded in the alarm log so that you can see the
details, acknowledge the alarm, and take the appropriate
corrective action.
11.1 Alarms: Alarm Log
The alarm log records all the alarms that have been triggered. The
most recent alarm is at the top of the list.
The priority level of a new alarm is indicated by its color category.
There are four color categories - red, orange, yellow, and blue.
Red is the highest priority level and requires urgent corrective
action.
Alarms that you have already acknowledged are shown in gray.
