to improve the accuracy.
Realignment involves a simple exercise to align an on-screen object

vessel is anchored or moored.
Note: This only applies to touchscreen multifunction displays.

Data master

Any system containing more than one networked multifunction
display must have a designated data master.
The data master is the display which serves as a primary source
of data for all displays, it also handles all external sources of
information. For example the displays may require heading
information from the autopilot and GPS systems, usually received
through a SeaTalk ng or NMEA connection. The data master is the
display to which the SeaTalk, NMEA and any other data connections
are made, it then bridges the data to the SeaTalk
any compatible repeat displays. Information shared by the data
master includes:
• Cartography
• Routes and waypoints
• Radar
• Sonar
• Data received from the autopilot, instruments, the engine and
other external sources.
Your system may be wired for redundancy with data connections
made to repeat displays. However these connections will only
become active in the event of a fault and/or reassignment of the
data master.
Designating the data master
For systems with 2 or more displays the following task must be
performed on the multifunction display that you want to designate
as the data master.
With the homescreen displayed:
1. Select Set-up .
2. Select Maintenance.
3. Select Data Master.
4. Select the display that you want to designate as the data master.
GPS selection

• Your multifunction display may feature an internal GPS receiver.
• You can also connect an external GPS receiver using SeaTalk
or NMEA 0183.
• Where appropriate use the System Settings menu to enable or
disable the internal GPS receiver.
Enabling or disabling the internal GPS
If your multifunction display features an internal GPS then this can
be enabled and disabled by following the steps below.
With the homescreen displayed:
1. Select Set-Up.
2. Select System Settings.
3. To enable the internal GPS, select Internal GPS so that On is

Simulator mode

The Simulator mode enables you to practice operating your display
without data from a GPS antenna, radar scanner, AIS unit, or
fishfinder.
The simulator mode is switched on / off in the System Setup Menu.
Note: Raymarine recommends that you do NOT use the
simulator mode whilst navigating.
Note: The simulator will NOT display any real data, including any
safety messages (such as those received from AIS units).
