Setting Up and Following the Cloverleaf Pattern

You can use the cloverleaf pattern to steer the boat to

repeatedly pass over an active waypoint. When you begin the

cloverleaf pattern, the autopilot drives the boat toward the active

waypoint and begins the cloverleaf pattern.

You can adjust the distance between the waypoint and the

location where the autopilot turns the boat for another pass over

the waypoint. The default setting turns the boat at a range of

1000 ft. (300 m) from the active waypoint.

From the autopilot screen, select MENU

> Pattern Steering

> Cloverleaf

If necessary, select Length

, and select a distance.

Select

Engage Port or Engage Starboard.

Setting Up and Following a Search Pattern

You can use the search pattern to steer the boat in increasingly

larger circles outward from the active waypoint, forming a spiral

pattern. When you begin the search pattern, the autopilot drives

the boat to the active waypoint and begins the pattern.

You can adjust the distance between each circle in the spiral.

The default distance between circles is 50 ft. (20 m).

From the autopilot screen, select MENU > Pattern Steering

> Search.

If necessary, select Search Spacing

, and select a distance.

Digital Selective Calling

Networked Chartplotter and VHF Radio

Functionality

If you have a

NMEA 0183 VHF radio or a NMEA 2000 VHF

radio connected to your chartplotter, these features are enabled.

• The chartplotter can transfer your GPS position to your radio.

If your radio is capable, GPS position information is

transmitted with DSC calls.

• The chartplotter can receive digital selective calling (DSC)

distress and position information from the radio.

• The chartplotter can track the positions of vessels sending

position reports.

If you have a Garmin NMEA 2000 VHF radio connected to your

chartplotter, these features are also enabled.

• The chartplotter allows you to quickly set up and send

individual routine call details to your Garmin

VHF radio.

• When you initiate a man-overboard distress call from your

radio, the chartplotter shows the man-overboard screen and

prompts you to navigate to the man-overboard point.

• When you initiate a man-overboard distress call from your

chartplotter, the radio shows the Distress Call page to initiate

a man-overboard distress call.

DSC List

The DSC list is a log of the most recent DSC calls and other

DSC contacts you have entered. The DSC list can contain up to

100 entries. The DSC list shows the most recent call from a

boat. If a second call is received from the same boat, it replaces

the first call in the call list.

Viewing the DSC List

Before you can view the DSC list, the chartplotter must be

connected to a VHF radio that supports DSC.

Select NAV INFO

using NMEA 0183 or NMEA 2000

, your chartplotter alerts you

when your VHF radio receives a DSC distress call. If position

information was sent with the distress call, that information is

also available and recorded with the call.

Man-Overboard Distress Calls Initiated from a VHF

Radio

When the chartplotter is connected to a compatible VHF radio

with NMEA 2000, and you initiate a man-overboard DSC

distress call from the radio, the chartplotter shows the man-

overboard screen and prompts you to navigate to the man-

overboard point. If you have a compatible autopilot system

connected to the network, the chartplotter prompts you to start a

Williamson’s turn to the man-overboard point.

If you cancel the man-overboard distress call on the radio, the

chartplotter screen prompting you to activate navigation to the

man-overboard location disappears.

Man-Overboard and SOS Distress Calls Initiated from

the Chartplotter

When your chartplotter is connected to a Garmin NMEA 2000

compatible radio and you mark an SOS or man-overboard

location, the radio shows the Distress Call page so you can

quickly initiate a distress call.

For information on placing distress calls from your radio, see the

VHF radio owner’s manual. For information about marking an

MOB or SOS location, see Marking an SOS Location,

page

11.

Position Tracking

When you connect the chartplotter to a VHF radio using NMEA

0183, you can track vessels that send position reports.

This feature is also available with NMEA 2000, when the vessel

sends the correct PGN data (PGN 129808; DSC Call

Information).

Every position report call received is logged in the DSC list

(
