AUTOMATIC TIME
The time information supplied by the GPS satellites is in Universal Time Coordinates (UTC or
Greenwich England Mean Time). To change the GPS Chart Plotter to read the correct time, first
you must figure out the offset and if it is daylight savings time. For example on the West coast of
the United States or Pacific Standard Time the offset needed would be –08:00 or –07:00 for daylight
savings time, Eastern Standard Time –05:00 or –04:00 for daylight savings time.
The Time Setup menu allows the users to know the offset for the area and automatically changes
the time in areas with Daylight Savings.
By setting the time in the steps below, the time shown on the Celestial page is automatically set up.
1. Press [MENU]. Move the ShuttlePoint knob to highlight SETUP MENU and press [ENT].
2. Move the ShuttlePoint knob to highlight GENERAL SETUP and press [ENT] or move
the ShuttlePoint knob to the right.
3. Move the ShuttlePoint knob to highlight TIME SETUP and press [ENT] or move the
ShuttlePoint knob to the right.
4. Move the ShuttlePoint knob to highlight TIME ZONE and press [ENT] or move the
ShuttlePoint knob to the right.
