Boundaries
CAUTION
The Beeper setting must be turned on to make alarms audible
(System Settings, page 37). Failure to set audible alarms could
lead to injury or property damage.
Boundaries allow you to avoid or remain in designated areas in
a body of water. You can set an alarm to alert you when you
enter or exit a boundary.
You can create boundary areas, lines, and circles using the
map. You can also convert saved tracks and routes into
boundary lines. You can create a boundary area using
waypoints by creating a route from the waypoints, and
converting the route into a boundary line.
You can select a boundary to act as the active boundary. You
can add the active boundary data to the data fields on the chart.
