About the Radar Overlay
The Radar Overlay superimposes radar information on the Navigation chart or the Fishing chart. Data appears
on the Radar Overlay based on the most recently used radar mode (Cruising, Harbor, Offshore, or Sentry),
and all settings congurations applied to the Radar Overlay are also applied to the last-used radar mode. For
example, if you use Harbor mode and then you switch to the Radar Overlay, the Radar Overlay would show
Harbor mode radar data. If you changed the gain setting using the Radar Overlay menu, the gain setting for
Harbor mode would change automatically.
The Radar Overlay does not show data based on the Dual Range radar mode, and settings congurations
applied to the overlay are not applied to the Dual Range mode.

Radar Overlay and Chart Data Alignment
When using the Radar Overlay, the chartplotter aligns radar data with chart data based on the boat heading,
which is based by default on data from a magnetic heading sensor connected using a NMEA 0183 or NMEA
2000 network. If a heading sensor is not available, the boat heading is based on GPS tracking data.
GPS tracking data indicates the direction in which the boat is moving, not the direction in which the boat
is pointing. If the boat is drifting backward or sideways due to a current or wind, the Radar Overlay may
not perfectly align with the chart data. This situation should be avoided by using boat-heading data from an
electronic compass.
If the boat heading is based on data from a magnetic heading sensor or an automatic pilot, the heading data
could be compromised due to incorrect setup, mechanical malfunction, magnetic interference, or other factors.
If the heading data is compromised, the Radar Overlay may not align perfectly with the chart data.
