1.7 How to Edit the Display Icons
The default home screen arrangement provides seven displays in configurations ac-
cording to the equipment that you have in your network. If the arrangement does not
meet your requirements, you can change the display icons as required. You can set a
maximum of 10 display icons to show, and split a display screen up to three ways. For
example, you can show the radar and sounder (fish finder) displays in a two-way split
screen.
The screen can be a full-screen, two-way split or three-way split. The displays avail-
able depend on the display division selected and your system configuration. The table
below outlines the display divisions and possible displays.
1.7.1 How to add a new display icon
1. Tap the [Home] icon to show the home screen.
2. Tap the + icon. (If the icon is not shown, this means the capacity
for display icons has been reached. Erase an unnecessary icon
to make room. See paragraph 1.7.2.)
3. Follow the instructions below to create a display icon.
Your arrangement is then opened on the screen and the home screen is updated ac-
cording to your arrangement.

1.10 Micro SD Cards
This equipment uses two types of micro SD cards, chart and data. The chart cards
contain charts and the data micro SD card stores plotter-related data such as tracks,
routes, points and generic data such as menu settings. Set and remove the card as
shown below. The Secure Digital Extended Capacity (SDXC) cards can also be used.
How to insert a micro SD card
Before inserting a chart card in the multi function display, turn off the power.
How to format a micro SD card
You do not normally need to format a data micro SD card. If the card becomes unread-
able, format the card with a formatting program that is compatible with the specifica-
tions of the micro SD card.
How to remove a micro SD card
1) Open the card slot cover at the rear of the display unit. (Remove the cover in case
of the SD card unit.)
2) Push the card to release the card from the card drive.
3) Remove the card with your fingers then close the lid (cover).
4) Close the card slot lid.
About the micro SD cards
• Handle the cards carefully. Improper use can damage the card and
destroy its contents.
• Make sure the slot lid (cover) is closed at all times.
• Remove a card with only your fingers. Do not use metal instruments
(like tweezers) to remove the card.
• Do not remove a card during the reading of or writing to the card.
Note: Use a micro SD card class 6 or higher for storing chart data.
Unfasten two
screws.

1.11 Plotter Introduction
The plotter provides a small world map in raster format. A vector chart for the US
coastline (with Alaska and Hawaii) is provided also. The plotter section has functions
to enter points, and create and plan routes.
The plotter receives position information supplied from the built in GPS receiver. Your
position is marked on the screen with the boat icon.
The points and routes you have entered are shown on the screen. You can move, de-
lete and edit the points and routes from a pop-up menu.
The plotter also
The status bar, common to all modes, alerts you to equipment status. The color of
both the bar and the status message change according to message category.
- Red bar, yellow characters: warning (alarm violation, equipment error, etc.)
- Yellow bar, black characters: caution (system message, etc.)
When an alert condition occurs, the equipment beeps (if enabled), the name of the
alert appears in the bar, and the bar flashes. You can stop the flashing and silence the
beep by tapping the bar.
The undo and redo icons are available for point and route operations.
Undo: Reverse the last action.
Redo: Repeat the last action.

1.12 Radar Introduction
A radar system operates in the microwave part of the radio frequency (RF) range. The
radar detects the position and movement of objects. Objects are shown on the radar
display at their measured distances and bearings in intensities according to echo
strength.
The radar display is available in head-up and north-up modes and orientation in true
and relative motion. The relative motion display shows other ships movement relative
to your ship. The true motion display shows your ship and other objects in motion ac-
cording to their true courses and speeds.
A guard zone tells you when the radar targets are in the area you indicate. The trail of
targets can be shown in afterglow to monitor their movements.
