Beacon information display

SS: SS (Signal Strength) displays a numeric

representation of field strength of the

received signal on the selected frequency.

The higher the number the stronger the

received signal. (should read at least 60.) If

noise is present at reception band width, the

figure gets bigger.

SN: SN (Signal-to-Noise) ratio displays the

ratio between the desired signal and

unwanted noise on the selected frequency.

The higher the SN ratio the better the quality

of the signal. (should read at least 21.)

Note: If your equipment does not have a

DPGS receiver, the message “NO

DIFFERENTIAL DATA” appears when

the BEACON INFO soft key is pressed.

Also when connecting with the

external beacon receiver, this

message appears.

How to read the compass display

The solid inverted triangle at the center of

the compass shows own ship’s course. The

hollow inverted triangle shows the bearing to

destination waypoint. When own ship’s

course is changed, the hollow inverted

triangle moves with course change.

Note: Course means the direction which own

ship moves to. It is different from own

ship’s direction. Tidal current and wind

may affect the course.
