River Mode
River Mode can be enabled to counteract the effect of water
current on speed and wake size by speeding up or slowing down the
vessel. Once enabled, softkeys are available on the cruise display to
select upstream or downstream.
This option is enabled as a global setting for the LINC system in the
User Settings menu, but can then be controlled in the Cruise
Screen in LINC. The user can turn the River Offset up and down
and can save the offset back to User Settings. These actions and
functions can all be done from the main Cruise screen.
When the user wants to use River Mode and has enabled it in the
User Settings, the softkeys will become the River Mode Up Stream
and Down Stream buttons. These will be the default and will be
used when changing directions in a river setting. The other softkeys
normally present in the Cruise screen are still available but are now
the 2nd and 3rd level keys. When River Mode is disabled in User
Settings, the softkeys return to their normal state.
River Mode Offset
This field is used to set river speed, which determines how much to
adjust speed while in River Mode. The current offset value will be
displayed on the Up Stream and Down Stream softkeys when River
Mode is enabled.
