accessories you have connected to the chartplotter. You may

manual.
The categories along the right of the screen provide quick
access to the main features of your chartplotter. For example,
the Sonar category displays the views and pages related to the
sonar feature. You can save items you commonly access to the
Favorites category.
All of the options along the bottom of the home screen are

Settings button is accessible only from the home screen.
When viewing another screen, you can return to the home
screen by selecting HOME.
