Garmin GPSMAP 185 Sounder - Manual (Page 98)

Alarm Clock—The alarm clock has sounded.
Anchor Drag Alarm—You have drifted out of
the specified distance range.
Approaching—You are less than one minute
away from reaching a destination waypoint at
your present speed over ground.
Arrival At—You have arrived at the destination
waypoint.
Can’t Change An Active Waypoint—You have
attempted to change the ‘active to’ or ‘active
from’ waypoint. Clear the active route or GOTO
before making your changes.
Card Format is Not Recognized—The cartridge
inserted is not readable by the GPSMAP 185
Sounder system and may be damaged. Reinsert
the cartridge to make sure it is properly
installed. If the cartridge is still not recognized,
call the Micro G-chart information line at 1-800-
427-6460.
Cross-Track Alarm—You have exceeded the off-
course distance specified in the CDI setup.
Data Transfer is Complete—The receiver is fin-
ished uploading or downloading information to
the connected device.
Database Memory has Failed—The built-in 64
nm database has failed. See an authorized ser-
vice center for repair.
Deep Water Alarm—The current depth is equal
to or more than the set alarm depth.
Degraded Accuracy—The accuracy of your
GPSMAP 185 Sounder system has been degrad-
ed beyond 500 meters due to poor satellite
geometry or data quality. You should check
other navigational sources to verify the position
indicated.
Max Calibration Is 5000mt (16,400 ft)—You
have exceeded the maximum possible map cali-
bration.
Memory Battery Power is Low—The internal
battery that stores waypoints, routes and track
plots needs to be replaced. Take your unit to an
authorized GARMIN service center for installa-
tion of a new battery.
Need Altitude—Your GPSMAP 185 Sounder
system needs the altitude to maintain a position
fix due to poor satellite coverage. Enter your
approximate altitude on the initialize position
page.
Need to Select Init Method—The GPSMAP 185
Sounder needs to be initialized to your present
position. See pages 1-2 for complete instructions
on initialization.
No Differential GPS Position—Not enough data
is being received to compute a DGPS position.
Oscillator Needs Adjustment—The GPSMAP
185 Sounder has detected excessive drift in its
internal oscillator, which may result in longer
acquisition times. Take the unit to an authorized
GARMIN service center for adjustment.
Poor GPS Coverage—The GPSMAP 185
Sounder cannot acquire the necessary number
of satellites to compute a position.
Power Down and Re-init—The GPSMAP 185
Sounder cannot calculate a position due to
abnormal satellite conditions. Power down and
verify the last position shown by other means.
Proximity Alarm—You have entered the alarm
