5.5.6 GROUNDING ALARM (GUARDIAN TECHNOLOGY)

The chart plotter is provided with a function that, by querying the map's data,

verifies potential danger to navigation due to shallow water, land, rocks, obstructions

and shoreline constructions. The maps are scanned periodically (every 10 seconds).

When the Grounding Alarm is active, the chart plotter scans an area in front

of the boat. This area is identified by a triangle drawn in front of the boat icon whose

direction is determined by the current boat heading. The length of the triangle is

user selectable and its angle is 30°. If any of the above objects are found, the chart

plotter notifies the danger on a dedicated warning message box in the Grounding

Alarm Report Page (see Par. 5.5.8).

The Grounding Alarm is switched Off by default after a Master Reset. Once
