Garmin 7600 series GPS Receiver User Manual


 
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 viewing another screen, you can return to the home
screen by selecting Home.
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. When you select Home on one display, each
display in the station returns to the home 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 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.
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.
