WAAS alarm
This alarm alerts you when the WAAS signal is lost. Note that On cannot be chosen if
[Mode] in Menu>WAAS is set to GPS.
Time alarm
The time alarm works like an alarm clock, releasing audio and visual alarms when the
time entered has come.

The trip alarm tells you when your boat has traveled further than the preset trip dis-
tance.
Odometer alarm
This alarm alerts you when your boat has traveled the total distance you set.
Speed Based Output
This alarm is for a boat that has a control system that applies the boat’s speed. The
contact signal is normal open. When your boat’s speed is faster than the [Close] set-
ting, the contact signal is closed. When your boat’s speed is less than the [Open] set-
ting, the contact signal is opened.
