Alarms

This unit has three GPS alarms. The factory default setting has all the

alarms turned on. You can turn the alarms off and on and change their

distance settings.

You can set an arrival alarm to flash a warning message and sound a

tone when you cross a preset distance from a waypoint. For example, if

you have the arrival alarm set to 0.1 mile, then the alarm will flash a

message when you come within 0.1 mile of the recalled waypoint.

The off course alarm warns you when your track drifts too far to the

right or left of the course line to the waypoint. For example, if the

alarm is set to 0.1 mile, then the alarm flashes a message if you drift

0.1 of a mile or more to the right or left of the line to the waypoint.

The anchor alarm is triggered when you drift outside a preset radius.

Again, using the 0.1 mile as an example, if you're anchored and your

boat moves more than 0.1 mile, the alarm will flash a message and

sound a tone.
