GPS Satellite Signals

When you turn on the chartplotter, the GPS receiver must collect

satellite data and establish the current location. When the

chartplotter acquires satellite signals,

appears at the top of

the Home screen. When the chartplotter loses satellite signals,

disappears and a flashing question mark appears over on

the chart.

Customizing the Chartplotter

Stations and Station Layouts

When multiple displays are installed on the Garmin

Marine

Network, you can group them together into a station. A station

enables the displays to work together, rather than as several

separate displays.

When you select HOME on one display, each display in the

station returns to the Home screen. With the SmartMode

™

feature, when a button is selected from the Home screen, each

display in the station can show unique information. For example,

when Cruising is selected from the Home screen, one display

can show the Navigation chart and another display can show the

Radar screen.

You can customize the layout of the pages on each display,

making each page different on each display. When you change

the layout of a page in one display, the changes appear only on

that display. When you change the name and symbol of the

layout, those changes appear on all displays in the station, to

maintain a consistent appearance.
