NOTE: This option is only available when you have valid
depth data.
1 Measure the distance:
• If the transducer is installed at the water line
anywhere above the end of the keel, measure the
distance from the transducer location to the keel of
the boat. Enter this value as a positive number.
• If the transducer is installed at the bottom of the
keel
and you want to know the true depth of
the water, measure the distance from the transducer
to the water line. Enter this value in as a negative
number.
2 Complete an action:
• If the transducer is connected to the chartplotter or
a sonar module, select Options > Settings > My
Vessel > Depth and Anchoring > Keel Offset.
• If the transducer is connected to the NMEA
2000 network, select Options > Settings >
Communications > NMEA 2000 Setup > Device
List, select the transducer, and select Review >
Keel Offset.
3 Select
if the transducer is installed at the water line,
or select
if the transducer is installed at the bottom
of the keel.
4 Enter the distance measured in step 1.

Setting the Water Temperature Offset

The temperature offset compensates for the temperature
reading from a temperature sensor or temperature-
capable transducer.
1 Measure the water temperature using the temperature
sensor or temperature-capable transducer that is
connected to the network.
2 Measure the water temperature using a different
temperature sensor or a thermometer that is known to
be accurate.
3 Subtract the water temperature measured in step 1
from the water temperature measured in step 2.
This value is the temperature offset. Enter this value
in step 5 as a positive number if the sensor measures
the water temperature as being colder than it actually
is. Enter this value in step 5 as a negative number if
the sensor measures the water temperature as being
warmer than it actually is.

4 Complete an action:
• If the sensor or transducer is connected to the
chartplotter or a sonar module, select Options >
Settings > My Vessel > Temp. Offset.
or
• If the sensor or transducer is connected to the
NMEA 2000 network, select Options > Settings >
Communications > NMEA 2000 Setup > Device
List, select the transducer, and select Review >
Temp. Offset.
5 Enter the temperature offset value calculated in step 3.
Setting the Exhaust Aftertreatment System (EATS)
Mode
Read the Volvo Penta Operator Manual for more detailed
information.
When the chartplotter is connected to a compatible Volvo
Penta engine, it could be possible to select the Exhaust
Aftertreatment System (EATS) mode.
1 Select Options > Settings > My Vessel > EATS.
2 Select an option.

Calibrating a Water-Speed Device

If you have a speed sensor or a speed-sensing transducer
connected, you can calibrate that speed-sensing device to
improve the accuracy of water-speed data displayed by
the chartplotter.
1 Complete an action:
• If the sensor or transducer is connected to the
chartplotter or a sonar module, select Options >
Settings > My Vessel > Calibrate Water Speed.
• If the sensor or transducer is connected to the
NMEA 2000 network, select Options > Settings >
Communications > NMEA 2000 Setup > Device
List, select the transducer, and select Review >
Calibrate Water Speed.
2 Follow the on-screen instructions.
If the boat is not moving fast enough or the speed
sensor is not registering a speed, a message appears.
3 Select OK, and safely increase the boat speed.
4 If the message appears again, stop the boat, and
ensure the speed-sensor wheel is not stuck.
5 If the wheel turns freely, check the cable connections.
6 If you continue to get the message, contact Volvo
Penta product support.

Adding a Key

You can add keys to the system. The system can have up
to four keys, which are numbered from 1 to 4.
1 Select Options > Settings > My Vessel > e-KEY
Management > Add e-KEY.
2 When prompted, hold the new key in front of the panel.
The system stores the key ID.

Setting the Speed Factor

Before you can set the speed factor, you must compare
the displayed vessel speed with an external data source
for speed, such as GPS or another vessel.
