DSM300 Operation with PLUS Series Displays

Note:

To obtain MOB position, you need either of the following:

• Position data from a GPS or equivalent device
• Heading and speed data, so that the position can be calculated by dead reck-

oning

To initiate the MOB procedure, press and hold the MARKS key for two
seconds. The system then performs the following tasks automatically:

• Marks the Sonar image with a vertical line and the letters MOB.
• Marks the current position on the chart display with a MOB symbol

.

• Displays the MOB data box, showing the bearing and distance from your boat

to the MOB waypoint position and the elapsed time since the MOB was initi-
ated (Figure 5-1 ).

• Sounds a 4-second alarm pattern every 30 seconds.
• Sends an MOB message (including bearing and distance) to other units in the

system, via the SeaTalk connection.

To cancel the MOB, press and hold the MARKS key for 2 seconds.
The MOB symbol and data box are removed.

Note:

The MOB procedure can also be initiated or cancelled if the appropriate SeaTalk

message is received by the display unit.
