Geodetic 
Datum 

Your equipment is preprogrammed with 
most of the major chart systems of the 
world. Although the WGS-84 system, 
the GPS standard, is now widely used 
other categories of charts still exist. 
Select the chart system used, not the 
area where your boat is sailing. 

Use the trackball 
or ENTER knob 
to select 
appropriate 
chart.

Position 
Smoothing 

When the DOP or receiving condition is 
unfavorable, the GPS fix may change, 
even if the vessel is dead in water. This 
change can be reduced by smoothing 
the raw GPS fixes. A setting between 
000 to 999 is available. The higher 
setting the more smoothed the raw 
data, however too high a setting shows 
response time to change in latitude and 
longitude. This is especially noticeable 
at high ship’ speeds. Increase the 
setting if the GPS fix changes.
