displayed. Pressing the Mark key will save the current boat position with a temporary name in the range of MARK0 to MARK9. Marks are saved separately from normal waypoints. They are simpler to create and display and are intended to provide a simple method of marking temporary locations such as fish strikes. See section 12.0 Marks for a more detailed description. Route Two or more waypoints can be linked in sequence to form a route. The route has a start and end waypoint and can be traversed from

digits are used for the degrees as longitudes can be as large as 180°. The E indicates this location is east of Longitude 000°, a vertical line through Greenwich (London). If you don’t have a pair of dividers, you can use a ruler or even two pencil marks on the edge of a strip of paper. When entering the Lat/Lon of a waypoint from a chart, it is essential that the Tracker500/ 500i is set to the same Lat/Lon datum that the chart uses (see section 15.0 Chart Datums). This also applies if you are p

9.0 Fuel Screen (Tracker500i only) The Tracker500i has a comprehensive set of fuel management features. To utilise these features you need only purchase a Navman fuel flow transducer. This plugs into the 5 pin connector on the rear of the Tracker500i. For twin engine installations there is a kit containing two fuel transducers and a ‘Y’ cable to enable both transducers to be connected to the 5 pin connector. The Navman fuel flow transducer has been specifically developed for use with petrol inbo

over which the average is taken. Usually a value of 10-15 seconds will give a satisfactory result for a carburettor engine. Fuel injected engines may require a larger value. Too high a flow filter value will slow down the display of real changes in flow rate when you change the throttle setting. This setting does not affect the fuel volume measurement, only the display of the flow rate. Economy and speed As the speed error caused by Selective Availability becomes significant at low boat speeds,

9.2 Fuel used calibration (Transducer calibration) Without calibration, accuracy can be expected to be better than 10%. By recording the actual fuel usage of your boat over a period of time, it will be possible to adjust the Tracker500i to give consistently accurate readings within a 2% tolerance. In a twin engine installation you can calibrate the port and starboard transducers independently. To calibrate your fuel transducer you will need to accurately measure the fuel used. This is most easil
