The Processor Unit
The processor unit is the heart of the system, responsible for the loading, storing, updating and processing of
electronic sea charts, with the DVD-ROM drive or floppy disk drive. The DVD-ROM and floppy disk drives are
behind the lid on the front panel.
1.4
Turning the Power On/Off
The system may be turned on by turning on the power switch at the rear of the processor unit and then pressing the
POWER switch on the Control Unit, until you feel a "click." At this time the equipment releases a beep. To turn off
the system reverse this sequence.
Note: The amount of resources used increases over time, sometimes slowing down operation. If operation seems to
be slow, re-set the power, when use of the equipment is not required; for example, when in port.
