GPS Satellite Signals

satellite data and establish the current location. When the
chartplotter acquires satellite signals,
appears at the top of
the Home screen. When the chartplotter loses satellite signals,
disappears and a flashing question mark appears over on
the chart.

Customizing the Chartplotter
Stations and Station Layouts
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, rather than as several
separate displays.
When you select HOME on one display, each display in the
station returns to the Home screen. With the SmartMode
feature, when a 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.
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 only on
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.
