Raychart 320 Chartplotter

The cursor is used to:

Select a position on the screen.

Select and, if valid, move an item, e.g. a waypoint, on the chart.

Select an area of the screen to zoom into.

Pan the display.

Moving the Cursor

Press the corresponding edge of the trackpad to move the cursor
horizontally, vertically or diagonally; the longer you press, the faster the
cursor moves. The current cursor position is shown in the Status Bar at
the top of the display.

Note: When certain menus and soft keys are displayed, the cursor is not
active. If you find that you cannot move the cursor, it may be because the
unit is in one of these modes. Press

CLEAR (repeatedly) until the default

soft keys are displayed; the cursor should then respond.

Context-Sensitive Cursor Control

The cursor is context-sensitive. Some items on the screen, such as
waypoints and chart objects have information associated with them.
When you place the cursor over such objects, the information is
displayed in a pop-up box. In addition, soft keys are displayed for certain
items. For example, when you place the cursor over a waypoint, the
waypoint data is displayed in a pop-up box and the waypoint soft keys are
displayed.

When the cursor is positioned over special features on the display a text
label appears below the cursor, identifying the feature as follows:
