1.4.3 OS DATA Mode
This mode shows Own Ship Data (OS DATA), and is only available if the [Time Adjust] setting in
the [Service Menu] is set to [External].
To change the [Time Adjust] settings in the [Service Menu], consult a FURUNO technician.
The OS DATA mode requires a connected EPFS device, such as GPS. If there is no device con-
nected, or connection is interrupted, the OS DATA is displayed as shown in the above left figure.
The left side of the display shows the OS DATA, the right side of the display shows the current
echo readings.
