In the Cursor mode, you have a cursor icon displayed that you can use
to pan around the plotter. The information displayed at the bottom of
the screen provides you with the heading and distance of the cursor
from your present position. In the Cursor mode you can:

• scroll around the plotter, checking available information for areas

on the plotter not displayed around your present position

• create a POI for the position indicated by the cursor

• create a GOTO route to the position indicated by the cursor

location

• get detailed information about POIs found at the cursor location

These options will be explained in the section of this manual on
creating POIs and GOTO routes.

To enter the Cursor mode, use the Arrow joystick to move the cursor. As soon as the
joystick is moved, a crosshair cursor is displayed and the bottom of the screen changes to
provide information about the cursor position.

To exit the cursor mode, press the ESC button. When pressed, the

Plotter

screen is

returned to the Position mode, with your present position displayed in the center of the
screen.
