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 Select
> My Vessel > Temp. Offset.
5 Enter the temperature offset value calculated in step 3.
