USING THE ANCHOR ALARM
The Anchor Alarm uses two adjustable alarm limits. The
alarm will sound if the water is deeper or shallower, by the
amount set, than the original depth when the alarm was
enabled. This allows you to adjust your anchor chain
according to the rise and fall of the tides. The Network
DEPTH unit has a factory set low limit of 0.5m and a high
limit of 1.0m.
In the following example the original water depth was 3m
when the alarm was enabled. Using the factory set values,
the water depth could increase to 4m (3m + 1m) and
decrease to 2.5m (3m - 0.5m) before the alarm would
sound.
The anchor alarm depth limits are shown alternatively when
they are enabled and displayed using the ALARM key.
