We recommend that you use the GEONAV intuitively, since no
damage will be caused by pressing an incorrect button.
Make sure that the GPS receiver is connected, insert a Com-
pact Flash™ cartridge and press the PWR key. At start-up, all
the NAVIONICS charts stored into the Compact Flash™ will
be automatically loaded.
A message will warn the user that electronic nautical charts
do not replace official government charts.
Press the PWR key to turn the display backlight on and adjust
the brightness by the joystick; press ENTER to continue (en-
abling the Geonav mode).
The Satellite window will show the configuration of the satel-
lites in use. As soon as the GPS receiver has obtained a valid
fix (it can take a few minutes), the boat's position and the
relevant area will be displayed at the best scale available.
The default language is English. To change the language, press
GOTO to display the menu, then select SETUP, LANGUAGE
and the desired language by the joystick.
The line, or vector, starting from the boat indicates the boat's
direction, to be ignored if the boat is stationary.
Windows will display the boat's speed, route, chart scale and
local time.
The GEONAV is in Navigation mode; by the joystick, it is pos-
sible to switch to Cursor mode (editing mode). The cursor posi-
tion is shown by two windows. The joystick allows moving in
all directions.
To plot a route starting from the boat's position, move the cur-
sor to the position desired and press ENTER to insert a waypoint,
that will be indicated by a circle containing the number 1.
