OPERATING MODES
When switching on the GEONAV, the user can select one of
the two main operating modes available.
Press the PWR key and wait for the message on official nauti-
cal charts to show (if required, select one chart among those
contained in the cartridge), then press GOTO to enable the ECS
mode, or ENTER to enable the standard GEONAV mode.
It is also possible to press ZOOM+ to enter the demo mode, in
which the unit automatically shows, in sequence, different
views relative to the chart currently loaded.
ECS mode
This mode allows displaying the chart data according to the
RTCM standard. During navigation, only the ship's position,
the heading vector and a set of chart items - defined by the
applicable regulations (and known as standard display) - are
displayed at full screen.
Markers are not displayed and navigation data are made ac-
cessible only by quitting the standard display. By enabling
the manual cursor by the joystick, the markers will show again.
Geonav mode
This is the unit standard mode. During navigation, the win-
dows showing position and route (if present) data, as well as
the waypoints and markers, are enabled.
It is not possible to disable the marker display, whose rel-
evant option does not appear in the Setup menu.
In Geonav mode, the unit displays different types of data,
according to the operating mode enabled (Cursor mode or Navi-
gation mode). The following paragraphs will describe the dif-
ferences between the modes available.
