7.1.1 Cursor Vs. Home Mode

Cursor Mode
When the cursor is shown on the Chart page, this is called Cursor mode.
In Cursor mode the position of the vessel will not stay in the center of the page and will move
right off the edge of the screen (as your boat moves) Cursor mode allows you to pan around
and look at areas on the map. In this mode your can also measure distance and bearings
from your current position.

NOTE

To change from Cursor mode to Home mode press [CLR].

Home mode
When the ships icon is only shown on the Chart page (cursor is not shown) you are in
Home mode. Now as the ship moves through the water the vessels position will be kept in
the center of the display.
