Remote control operating principles.
• Only 1 multifunction display may be operated by
a remote control unit at any one time. You cannot
pair a multifunction display to more than 1 remote
control at the same time.
• The 3 buttons on the remote control unit have
different functions depending on the CONTEXT in
which you are using it. For example, in the chart
application the buttons control different functions
than they do in the homescreen.
• All functions are accessed using a combination of
the 3 buttons. For some functions you must press
a button MOMENTARILY. You can also HOLD
a button for continuous response (for example,
continuous ranging in the chart application).
• The main methods of operation involve the use
of the UP and DOWN "arrow" buttons to highlight
different on-screen options. The SHORTCUT
button is used to select (execute) them.
• During the pairing process you must define which
of the arrow buttons you want to be the "UP"
button.
• The SHORTCUT button is customizable and can
be configured to operate one of a number of
functions, using the System Settings menu on
your multifunction display.
