Chapter 2: Using the display 29
• System alarms are triggered by A-Series applications, i.e the
chart or fishfinder. When you cancel a system alarm, the A-Se-
ries cancels the alarm and makes appropriate changes to the
application that triggered it. For example, if the chart application
sounds an arrival alarm, navigation to the next waypoint in the
route starts when you cancel the alarm.
• External alarms are triggered by equipment that is connected to
your A-Series system, but which are not part of the system, e.g.
AIS. When you cancel an external alarm, the alarm stops but no
further action is taken.
Both types of alarm are cancelled in the same way.
To cancel an alarm:
1. Press the ACKNOWLEDGE softkey.
