How do I change the chart orientation?
The orientation of the chart refers to the relationship between the chart and the direction you are travelling
in. It is used in conjunction with motion mode (see below) to control how your boat and chart relate to one
another and how they are displayed on screen. The default mode is North Up (N-UP). This displays your
chart with true north upwards. As your heading changes the boat symbol moves accordingly.
If desired, you can change the orientation mode to:
Head Up (H-Up) - displays chart with boat's current heading
upwards. As heading changes, boat symbol remains fixed
Course Up (C-Up) - chart picture stabilized, current course
upwards. Boat symbol moves as heading changes.

How do I change how my boat moves on the chart?
How your boat moves on the screen is referred to as the motion mode. The default setting for the chart is
Relative Motion. This means that your boat is fixed on the screen and the chart moves relative to your
boat i.e.
If desired, you can change the motion mode to:
True (TM) - the chart is fixed and the boat moves in true perspective to fixed landmasses on the screen.
Autorange (AR) - selects and maintains the largest possible scale of chart that will display both the boat
and the target waypoint This option is not available when radar/chart symchronization is ON.

What is a waypoint?
A waypoint is a position marked on a chart, radar or fishfinder screen
to indicate a site (for fishing, diving etc), or as a position to go to. You
can place a waypoint at the cursor or your boat's position or at a
specified position. Waypoints are represented in chart or radar
applications as an 'X' (default) and by a vertical line labeled WPT in
Fishfinder. Active waypoints are displayed on 3D Chart and CDI
windows. The details of each waypoint are stored in a waypoint list.
Waypoints can be renamed, edited, grouped, or erased, as necessary.
To make full use of waypoint features, ensure your display is receiving
heading and position data. We recommend that you regularly back-up
your waypoints by archiving them to a CompactFlash card. Waypoints
can also be transferred to another NMEA compatible instrument.

Typically your boat's position is at the centre of the display, and its dead ahead bearing is indicated by a
vertical heading line, known as the Ship's Heading Marker (SHM).
Remember that the radar picture may vary from visual observations that you make; a nearby small object may
appear the same size on the screen as a distant large object. However, with experience the approximate size
of different objects can be determined by the relative size and brightness of the echoes.

What is MARPA?
Mini Automatic Radar Plotting Aid (MARPA) functions are used for target tracking and risk analysis. MARPA
improves your standards of collision avoidance by obtaining detailed information for up to 10 targets, and
provides continuous and rapid situation evaluation.
MARPA tracks the selected targets and calculates target bearing, range, true speed, course, Closest Point of
Approach (CPA), and Time to Closest Point of Approach (TCPA). Each tracked target can be displayed with a
CPA graphic depicting the approximate target speed (vector length) and course (vector direction).
Alternatively, move the cursor over the target to display the range and CPA. You can now access bearing and
speed. Each target is continually assessed. An alarm sounds if a target becomes dangerous or lost.
NOTE: For MARPA to operate, fast heading data is required.

AIS DATA
What is AIS?
AIS uses digital radio signals to broadcast ‘realtime’
information between vessels and shore based
stations via dedicated VHF frequencies. This
information is used to identify and track vessels in
the surrounding area and to provide collision
avoidance data. AIS will augment your radar
application, as it can operate in radar blind spots.
In order to use the AIS feature, you will need a GPS
and compass for timing and position information
together with data from a suitable AIS receiver.

How is AIS data displayed?
The AIS system displays other AIS equipped vessels in
the surrounding area as targets overlaid on a chart or
radar window. Up to 100 targets are displayed and
are scaled according to the size of the vessel. A
vector indicates the direction of travel of the vessel.
As the vessel’s status changes, the symbol for the
target will change accordingly.
You can view detailed AIS data, safety critical target
information, alarm messages (ALR) and safety related
messages (SRM). You can also set up a safe zone.

Card No. 17
How do I monitor my course?....
Your course is shown on the chart application whilst motion mode is active.
Using COG and heading vectors (Press DATA - CHART VECTORS - COG/HDG VECTORS).
Use the Course Deviation Indicator (CDI). With your display receiving accurate heading and position
information, you can monitor your course and accurately steer to a target waypoint.
What does the CDI show me?....
The CDI gives a graphical representation of your boat's course. This 'rolling road' format represents a width
of sea equal to the Cross Track Error (XTE) limits that you have specified in the Setup menu. As you travel
towards the target waypoint, the checkered pattern moves down the screen to simulate movement at a rate
proportional to your boat's speed.

The Sirius Weather application (USA only)
To run the Sirius Weather application you will
need to purchase an SR100 weather receiver
and a subscription to Sirius weather.
Once connected, the weather application
superimposes historical, current and forecasted
weather graphics and environmental
conditions on the world map and provides
textual forecasts and warnings. These help you
to determine the actual conditions in your
vicinity or at a particular location.
As in the chart application, use the cursor to
move around the map and view different
locations, and the range button to zoom in and
out.
To re-center the map on your boat use the FIND
SHIP soft key.

Operating a networked E-Series Display
Card No. 23
What does a networked system do?
If you have connected two or more E-Series Displays (via either a crossover coupler or SeaTalk High Speed
Switch), all system data (from NMEA 0183, SeaTalk, SeaTalk2, NMEA 2000, SeaTalkhs waypoints, routes etc)
can be transferred across the network enabling you to input, view and maintain data across all your displays
irrespective of the Display from which the data originated (excepting Video Input).
How is the network controlled?
The display that has been installed and nominated as the master, should always be switched on (preferably
first). The master display maintains the waypoint, route and track lists as well as data from NMEA and
SeaTalk. Each time the master display detects a change on any display e.g. waypoint, route or track added or
edited, the data is copied to the database which in turn is copied to all other Displays that are switched on.
If the system does not detect a master, either because it is not switched on or because a master has not been
selected, an alarm will sound and you will be prompted to set a master display.
How do I change the master display?
