Alarms
All the alarms default to OFF. You can adjust the alarm settings to any
value, in steps of 0.01nm. All the alarms relate to a specified distance.
Note: The alarm limits are not displayed on the chart.
When an alarm is set OFF, it is disabled. When an alarm is set to a
value, it will be triggered when the alarm condition is met (see
Chapter 4).
The alarms settings have the following functions:
• Arrival alarm specifies the radius of a circle around the waypoint:
when your vessel reaches this circle (or, for intermediate waypoints,
a line perpendicular to the route leg) the alarm sounds
• Off course alarm specifies the distance from the route, at right
angles to the route, at which the alarm sounds
• Anchor alarm specifies the distance from the anchor position at
which the alarm sounds; you can only set this if a position fix is
available
