The shuttle ferry mode changes the orientation of the display when the external switch
is turned on. (Refer to the Installation Manual (IME-36520-x; x denotes version num-
ber) for switch installation.)
There are two variations: Standard display ([SHUTTLE FERRY] is set to [OFF]) and
reversed display ([SHUTTLE FERRY] is set to [MODE1] or [MODE2]).
When the display is reversed for shuttle ferry mode, the following changes also occur:
• Echoes are displayed 180° opposite to normal display.
• Bearing for speed data is re-calibrated to 180° opposite to normal.
• Wind direction based on speed input is re-calibrated to 180° opposite to normal.
• Where [Mode2] is selected, data input from the gyrocompass is re-calibrated to 180°
opposite to normal.
Note: Gyrocompass data input is not re-calibrated for [Mode1].

Note 1: The heading sensor must be able to follow a
minimum ROT of 20° per second. Heading sensors
with a lesser capability may degrade the perfor-
mance of echo averaging, trails and TT. The data refresh rate should also be as short
as possible. If the refresh rate is too long, the ability to follow courses lessens, thereby
affecting the performance of echo averaging, trails and TT.
Note 2: For IMO-types, Where the heading source is other than the heading sensor
(for example, and EPFS device), the sensor indication is displayed in yellow color.
