Alerts
Under ALERTS, you can set the limits and toggle the alerts for the following:
- Closest Point of Approach (CPA) and Time to Closest Point of Approach (TCPA) alarm: These alarms work together and cannot be toggled on or off individually. This means that both alarms are activated or deactivated simultaneously, ensuring coordinated alerts for approaching vessels and potential collision risks.
- CPA and TCPA THRESHOLD: The CPA THRESHOLD sets the minimum distance that another vessel can approach before an alarm is triggered, while the TCPA THRESHOLD indicates the time remaining until the vessel reaches the CPA limit.
- ANCHOR WATCH: This monitors your vessel's position in relation to the anchor point. If your vessel drifts beyond the set ANCHOR LIMIT, an alarm will sound, and a pop-up notification will appear on the screen. This feature helps ensure that your vessel stays safely anchored and alerts you if it moves unexpectedly.
- ANCHOR WATCH LIMITS: While anchored and your vessel drifts beyond this set limit, an alarm will sound, and a pop-up notification will appear on the display. This visual and audio alert helps you stay informed of any unexpected movement while anchored, ensuring the safety of your vessel.
