1Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of the chart plotter! If you have not used a position-finding instrument before and intend to use your chart plotter for navigating, we suggest you should read this User Manual and make sure you are familiar with its contents. The User Manual is divided into three main parts. Chapter "Before You Begin" introduces you to the basic information to get you start using the chart plotter.
more precisely, to ease and speed up all calculations, which so far have been done manually. If connected to a positioning instrument, the chart plotter displays the current position, the speed, and the heading of the boat and its Track.

A Terms This section explains the terms that may be unfamiliar to the reader. Advanced Mode The chart plotter can operate in two different modes: Basic Mode and Advanced Mode. In Advanced Mode it is possible to have more available functions, for example it is possible to handle Waypoints. AIS = Automatic Identification System It has been introduced to improve the safety of navigation by assisting in the efficient operation of shipto ship, ship reporting and VTS applications.
BRG = Bearing Angle between the North (True or Magnetic) and a destination. It represents the direction to follow. Chain Selects the preferred chain. The Loran chains are groups of transmitting stations that use timed radio pulse transmissions. In each of these chains there is a master station and two or more slave or secondary stations. Stations belonging to a same chain transmit pulses in timing groups: a different time base identifies each chain.
Depth Lines Imaginary lines connecting points of equal water depth. DGPS = Differential GPS Provides even greater positioning accuracy than standard GPS. DSC = Digital Selective Calling Method of establishing a VHF radio call; it is used to announce urgent maritime safety information broadcasts. This system allows mariners to instantly send Distress Call or/and Position Request to the other vessels equipped with a DSC transceiver within range of the transmission.
MOBILARM Automated crew monitoring system dedicated to monitoring onboard crew by maintaining a constant link between the crew member and the boat. The instant a man over-board event happens, an automatic alarm is sounded, and the vessels position is logged. Natural Features Any topographic feature formed by the action of natural processes: coastlines, relief, glaciers, .... Navigate or Navigation (mode) Operating mode (called also Home mode) all operations refer to the ship's position.
Speed Current velocity at which you are travelling, relative to a ground location. Spot Sounding Depth of the water in a specific and charted position STR = Steering Difference between COG and CTS. If COG is 25° and CTS is 30°, then STR is 5° Right. Target In order to tag on the chart the point, towards which the ship is Heading, you can use a special mark, called Target. When the Target is placed, all navigation data are referred to this Target.
