arrival alarm, anchor watch alarm, XTE (Cross Track Error) alarm, proximity alarm, speed 

alarm, trip alarm, water temperature alarm and bottom alarm. (The bottom and water 

temperature alarms, which require depth and water temperature data, may also be set on 

the sounder alarm menu. For these alarms see Chapter 4.) 

 

You may set up the plotter alarms on the ALARM menu, which may be displayed by
