Using Environment and Navigation Screens

Environment and Navigation Screens

IMPORTANT: The available VesselView menu items and options are dependent on the engine type, and if screens have been
manually turned on or off.
The environment and navigation screens display environment information such as sea depth and sea temperature. When a
global positioning system (GPS) is installed, navigational information will provide current latitude and longitude. If the GPS
source is a chartplotter, a calculated fuel to waypoint will show a green indicator if you have enough fuel to reach your
waypoint.
IMPORTANT: The screens listed in the "Env/Nav" menu are determined by the vessel setup and other components connected
to the VesselView unit. For example, VesselView will not display fuel to waypoint data if the GPS source attached to
VesselView does not have chartplotter capabilities.

Viewing Depth and Water Temperature

The "DEPTH" screen displays the depth, speed, and sea temperature; and enables you to set both deep and shallow depth
alarms.
