New Databoxes
Databox displays enable you to place vital navigation data where you want it.
The databoxes can be customized for content, size, color, position, and font,
ensuring a bright, clear view.
New to RayTech V4.1 are additional databox radar channels for MARPA,
VRM, EBL, radar bearing/range and radar cursor latitude/longitude.
Position Reporting
New in RayTech Navigator 4.1 is the capability to send and receive
automated vessel position reports. The position reports are compiled on a
user-selectable time interval and are automatically deposited into your MAPI
compliant e-mail client (such as Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express) for
transmission by cellular, satellite or SSB e-mail. Upon delivery to the
recipient, the position report can be automatically decoded and plotted on
any other PC running RayTech Navigator 4.1. Over time, RayTech
Navigator will develop a plot right on screen of where the vessel has been.
This feature is particularly useful to the offshore cruiser, racer, fishermen, or
anyone who wants to easily and effectively communicate their vessels
position to other boaters, to friends and family at home, or to a race safety
committee. RayTech 4.1’s position reporting is the backbone of the vessel
reporting system for the 2002-2003 Around Alone offshore sailing race.
Position reporting works in conjunction with RayTech’s automated
weather services.
