Configuring the Chartplotter Heading-sets the reference used in calculating heading information. • Auto Magnetic-automatically sets the magnetic declination for your location. • True-sets true north as the heading reference. • Grid-sets grid north as the heading reference (000º). • User Magnetic-allows you to set the magnetic variation value. Position Format-change the coordinate style in which a given location reading appears. Do not change the position format unless you are using a map or chart that specifies a different position format. Map Datum-change the coordinate system in which the map is structured. Do not change the map datum unless you are using a map or chart that specifies a different map datum. Time-set the time options. • Time Format-select 12-hour, 24-hour, or UTC time format. • Time Zone-set the time zone you want displayed for time readings. If Auto is selected for the Time Zone, the DST option is not available and is automatically set to Auto. • DST (Daylight Saving Time)-select Off, On, or Auto. The auto setting automatically turns daylight saving time on or off, 38 depending on the time of year.

Select Wind or Fuel Economy to toggle between water (from a water-speed sensor) and GPS (from the calculated GPS speed). Auto Guidance-set the automatic guidance parameters: • Safe Depth-set the minimum depth (chart depth datum) to allow when calculating an automatic guidance path. A safe depth of less than one meter is not allowed when using automatic guidance. GPSMAP 400/500 Series Owner's Manual
