Software Setup

This unit requires some initial configuration before use, in order to get the most out of the
product. The following sections focus on settings that typically do not require change once
configured. User preference settings and operation are covered in the Operator Manual.
Pressing the Home key or selecting the Home button opens the Home page. Select the
Settings icon in the top left corner of the Home page to open the Settings dialog and access
items that require configuration. You can also press the Power key once to display the
Systems Controls dialog and select the Settings icon from there.
First time startup
When the unit is started for the first time, or after a factory default, the unit displays a setup
wizard. Respond to the setup wizard prompts to select some fundamental setup options.
You can perform further setup using the system settings option and later change settings
made with the setup wizard.
Configuring the WheelKey
You can define what happens with a short or long press of the WheelKey on the front of the
unit.
To configure the Wheel key, select Configure WheelKey on the System Setting dialog.
Select the Short press option or Long press option in the WHEELKEY CONFIGURATION
dialog and then an option from the list displayed.
Time and Date
Configure time settings to suit vessel location, along with time and date formats.
Power Control
Determines unit response to signal applied to the yellow wire of the power cable.
Set to 'Slave' if the yellow wire is connected to ignition or to a stand-alone switch that applies
12 V/24 V. Set to Master to make this device turn on other devices when powered up.
Ú Note:
The System Controls panel does not display the Power Off option and you cannot
use the power key to power off the unit when the unit is configured as slave. To power
down the unit, the master device must be powered down, or system power removed.
Data source selection
Ú Note:
If NMEA 0183 is used, complete the NMEA 0183 setup prior to doing source
selection. Refer to "NMEA 0183 setup" on page 39.
Data sources provide live data to the system.
The data may originate from modules internal to the unit (for example internal GPS or sonar),
or external modules connected to the NMEA 2000 or via NMEA 0183 if available on the unit.
