the Lighting menu options.

POWER ON/OFF

This function key turns the unit on and off. When depressed while
the unit is on, you will be prompted to select a YES or NO softkey
to confirm your action. This is known as a software power off.
If the operating program should hang up for any reason, you can
also perform a hardware power off by continuing to depress the
power on/off function key for about 5 seconds. When the GPS is
turned off using this technique, you can not reapply power for 10
seconds.
Note: There may come a time when you need to reset the
memory back to the factory default values. Doing
this will cause the receiver to lose all of your defined
settings, as well as all 2000 of your waypoints and
routes. If you hold down the fifth (right most) softkey
when power is applied (either by the front panel or
from the circuit breaker box) and hold it for about two
seconds, until you hear a key click, then the memory
will be reset.

MAN OVER BOARD (MOB)

This stand-alone function key is located at the bottom right hand
corner of the front panel. When depressed for a few seconds, it
activates a number of automatic functions:
Ø Most obviously, it brings up a MOB 1 (plot) screen.
is an automatic scaling screen which selects the best zoom level
to display your present position and the MOB position. In
addition, the MOB position is displayed in the upper left
corner, so that you can quickly read the coordinates to others
who may be available to render assistance. This plot screen
also provides the vital bearing and distance back to the MOB
position, as well as your present course over ground.
Ø The MOB position, date and time are stored in the Waypoint
Bank for future reference (i.e. log book entries).
