Setting Up DSC

Use the DSC Setup sub tab to turn DSC on and off. If you have more than one

chartplotter and you only want DSC to show on one chartplotter, turn off DSC on

all units but one.
You can use the Setup sub tab to simulate distress calls or position reports on this

page while the unit is in Simulator Mode (page

8

). Press either the Sim Dstrs

Call or Sim Posn Rpt soft key to simulate a Distress Call or a Position Report.

This is helpful practice before connecting to the real system. The Distress Call

simulator also helps to determine whether alarms are working properly.

Using the NAV Key

If you receive a distress call or position report, you can quickly navigate to the

caller using the NAV key. When the call is logged, press NAV, and select Go To

or Go To .

Card Tab

Use the Card tab to transfer waypoints, routes, and tracks to and from a data card.

When data is saved to a data card, it can be exchanged with other compatible

units or transferred Garmin’s MapSource software program on your computer.
