Chapter 4: Setting Up

Simulator

The simulator enables operation of the RC435/435i Chartplotter without
data from external sources. The options are ON or OFF.
When ON is selected the simulator generates position, SOG and COG
data and uses the simulated data instead of any real data. A flashing SIM
status indicator is displayed in the left hand corner of the Status Bar at the
top of the screen.
Note: The simulated data overrides any real data that the display unit is
receiving from externally connected equipment.
The position is initially the position of the cursor when the simulator is
switched on and the SOG and COG are as selected by the user. The
position is updated to reflect the SOG and COG. See Simulated SOG and
Simulated COG below.
If a GOTO or Follow is started, the simulator does not use the selected
value of COG but, instead, generates a value of COG that simulates the
navigation function in progress. When GOTO or Follow is stopped, the
user selected value of COG is used.

Simulated SOG

Use horizontal movements of the trackpad to adjust the value of SOG
which is adjustable in 1 knot intervals from 00 to 99.
The Default value is zero and the selected value is retained on power
down.
If the simulator is switched OFF, the value is shown as dashes and no
adjustment is possible.

Simulated COG

Use horizontal movements of the trackpad to adjust the value of COG
which is adjustable in 1° intervals from 000° to 359°. It wraps around
from 000 to 359 and from 359 to 000.
The Default value is zero and the selected value is retained on power
down.
If the simulator is switched OFF, the value is shown as dashes and no
adjustment is possible.
