The boundary of each chart digitized in the current card is defined by a box or
rectangle. (You can switch off the chart boundaries display if you wish, as part
of the chartplotter set up described in Section 7.7.)

➤ To zoom in:

1. Use the trackpad to move the cursor inside one of the chart boxes, and press

the lower part of the RANGE key.

That area is expanded, with the cursor at the centre, so that you can see
more detail. Note that the smaller the chart box is on the screen, the further
you can zoom in and the greater the amount of detail that is available.

If you have switched on Plotter Mode (see Section 7.7), you can zoom in
further than the most detailed chart; all chart functions remain available.

Displaying Chart Object and Source Information

Chart cards include a number of displayed objects for which information is
available, such as lights and buoys. They also contain additional source data
for structures, lines, open sea areas etc. You can use the context-sensitive
cursor to identify (in a pop-up box) an object or chart position and you can
obtain detailed information for the selected item.

Set up options let you specify when an identification pop-up is displayed;
three options are available:

Display a pop-up for all objects and source data automatically when the
cursor is over the object symbol or source area.

Display a pop-up for displayed objects when the cursor is over the symbol.

Do not display the identification pop-ups.

The chartplotter also provides information for the nearest waypoint, port
service, port, tide station, wreck or obstruction for a selected position. If your
chart includes port and tide data, this can be displayed.

➤ To identify an item and obtain detailed information:

1. Move the cursor over the symbol or chart position for which you require

the information. If specified in Chart Set Up, a pop-up box such as the fol-
lowing is displayed at the lower left or upper right corner of the screen:

2. To view detailed information, press ENTER. The details available are listed

on-screen in an object information pop-up.
The pop-up is spit into two windows; objects are listed in the upper win-
dow and details for the selected object are provided in the lower win-
