Connect the VHF antenna to the SO - 239 connector and the GPS antenna to the SMA female connector. You can then start connecting your wired and wireless handsets and external speakers as per your needs. To use the Track Buddy feature, enter the VHF MMSI of your 'buddies' in the system. When using the handsets, you can easily access key functions through the large screen and intuitive interface. For channel selection, use the channel scan and favourites options. As for maintenance, keep the system in a dry place within the temperature range of - 20°C to + 55°C. Check the battery regularly and replace the 10A mini - blade fuse if necessary. Make sure the antenna connections are secure to ensure good signal reception. If you need to update the software, you can do it via NMEA 2000.
