Limitation Areas
On the sea, and especially in the archipelago, the limitation signs are difficult to spot in the bushes on the shore. The Limitation Areas subscription shows the current limitations in your area directly on your chart, such as speed limits, no-wake zones, or prohibition of anchoring. And even better, the Limitation Areas subscription tells you when the limitations end, no more guessing.
Currently, only available in Finland and Norway.

The Cloud AIS subscription brings AIS targets to the Q Display’s chart, without the need for an external AIS receiver.

Man Over Board - the Q Display will show you the person in distress on the chart, and help you to navigate to the location.
Note! The Cloud AIS does not send out your position to other AIS users; it is purely a way to view AIS targets on the chart.

Boats manufactured 2023 or later
Your boat will most likely have a SIM card installed at the factory. You can activate the Q Connected subscription directly.
Boat manufactured before 2023
Your Q Display doesn’t have a factory-installed SIM card, so the mobile application notifies you that “No device SIM → Get a free SIM card”. Order a valid SIM card for free via the link.
Then follow the installation instructions:
Make sure the Q Display is turned off before installation.
Locate the SIM card slot at the back of your Q Display.
Remove the SIM card from the plastic holder in the second smallest size (Micro SIM)
Install the SIM card in the SIM card slot
→ Make sure the SIM card clicks into place.
→ Pay attention to the orientation of the SIM card; the correct orientation is shown below the SIM card slot.
Note!!! Installing the SIM card in the wrong way might break the card slot.
With the SIM card installed, check that the Q Display recognizes the SIM.
→ Turn on the Q Display and go to: Settings > System settings > System info > SIM IMSI
→ If you see a series of digits on the IMSI row, your Q Display recognizes the SIM, and the installation was a success.
