Selecting Map Ranges

The Map Page has 28 available range scales from 20 ft to 800 nm

(20 ft to 800 mi or 5 m to 1200 km). The map range is controlled by

the IN and OUT keys, with the current range shown at the bottom

right of the data window.

NOTE: The range value represents the distance between the

ends of the range bar (

The system uses optional MapSource City Navigator for street level

mapping data. Detailed marine chart coverage is available through

the use of the BlueChart, or MapSource software.

Cartography is shown when the selected zoom range is covered

by either the internal map data or other MapSource data loaded

onto a data card.
When the selected zoom range is covered by both the internal

map data and data card map information, the cartography with

the best resolution is shown.
When the selected zoom range exceeds the resolution of the data

in use, “overzoom” appears below the map range.

No additional data available.

When optional City Navigator map data is used, “detail map”

appears below the map range.
