Alarms
The plotter section has eight conditions which generate both audio and visual
alarms: arrival alarm, anchor watch alarm, XTE (Cross Track Error) alarm,
proximity alarm, speed alarm, trip alarm, water temperature alarm and bottom
alarm. (The bottom and water temperature alarms, which require depth and
water temperature data, may also be set on the sounder alarm menu. For these
alarms see Chapter 4.)
You may set up the plotter alarms on the ALARM menu, which may be displayed
by pressing the [ALARM] key.
