To load, press the Load softkey to copy to the receiver.
The screen on the bottom right corner will read “Load-
ing”. When complete, “..OK” appears. This will replace
all waypoints and associated routes or tracks within
memory.
To delete, use the CURSOR KEY to highlight what you
want to delete and press the Delete softkey. A confirma-
tion screen appears. Highlight YES or NO and press
ENTER.
To sort, press the Sort By softkey. The softkeys change to
Name, Time and Type. The Time softkey sorts by date
and time of the file creation.
To access slot, press the Slot softkey. The softkeys change
to Read, Switch and Format. If there is no
C-Card inserted, an information window appears stating
there is no C-Card present.
When the Read softkey is pressed, the receiver displays
the information on the C-Card it is reading. The screen
on the right of the screen will read, “Reading Dir”. When
“..OK” appears, the reading is complete.
You can tell the receiver which of the slots you want it to read
from (For more information on cartridge installation, see the
Data Cartridges section).
To switch the Slot, press the Switch softkey. This tells the
receiver to access the slot that you have chosen, either
Slot 1 or Slot 2. If there is no C-Card in the specified
slot, an information window will appear saying “C-Card
Not Found”. If there is a C-Card, the data on the C-
Card will appear on the screen. The small screen in the
upper right will indicate which slot you are using, Slot 1
or Slot 2.
To prepare the C-Card for receiving and storing infor-
mation, press the Format softkey. A confirmation screen
appears. Highlight YES and press ENTER.
The C-Card needs to be inserted into the receiver
in order to obtain the information.
Map Shift
The position plotted on the map screen and the electronic
charts on the C-Map cartridges are based on WGS 1984 da-
tum regardless of the datum set. Paper charts from which
electronic charts are created may be based on other datums
and were shifted to WGS 1984 when the electronic charts
were created. In some rare cases, the datum of the paper chart
is unknown, which may cause a consistent bias (error) to ap-
pear between the displayed position and known coordinates.
This bias can be corrected by using Map Shft to shift the
receiver’s computed position to match its coordinates on your
paper chart.
