13.3 Sending and receiving data with a
computer
You can transfer and retrieve waypoints or routes to and from
another instrument or PC using NMEA.
With a RayTech 6.0’s planner you can transfer waypoints and routes
via a CF memory card. Such transfers require that the PC be con-
nected to the display’s NMEA port via a serial data cable.
To transfer or receive information from a computer
1. Press and hold the PAGE/MENU button to display the System
Setup Menu.
2. Select the ARCHIVE AND TRANSFER option.
3. Press TRANSFER ON NMEA.
4. Press the softkey that corresponds to the transfer you want to
perform.
To stop the transfer at any point, press STOP TRANSFER
.
13.4 Password protection
If required, you can use password protection to control access to
your waypoint and route databases. Once you have set up a pass-
word, it must be entered to access the Password Setup sub-menu,
regardless of the whether Password Protection is set to ON or OFF.
Password confirmation
When Password Protection is enabled and you attempt to access a
password-protected function for the first time during a power-cycle,
the system asks for the password for the following functions:
• Access WPTS key functions. This does not affect the operation
of the MOB function.
• Access ROUTES soft key functions.
• Create a route from a track. All other track functions are
unaffected.
• Archive or transfer any waypoints.
• Enter the Waypoint Password Setup menu.
