Customizing the Chartplotter
Home Screen
The chartplotter home screen provides access to all of the
features in the chartplotter. The features are dependant on the
accessories you have connected to the chartplotter. You may
not have all of the options and features discussed in this
manual.
When viewing another screen, you can return to the home
screen by selecting Home.
Status bar
Pages buttons
Categories bar
Menu bar
The categories along the right of the screen provide quick
access to the main features of your chartplotter. For example,
the Sonar category displays the views and pages related to the
sonar feature. You can save items you commonly access to the
Favorites category.
TIP: If your home screen has been customized by the boat
manufacturer, you can open the original home page category
tabs by dragging the bar on the right side of the screen to the
left.
The SmartMode items are geared toward an activity, such as
cruising or docking. When a SmartMode 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.
All of the options along the bottom of the home screen are
visible on all other screens, except for the Settings button. The
Settings button is accessible only from the home screen.
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, instead of as several
separate displays. 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 on only 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.
