Positioning the Chart on the Panel
Selecting chart center
When the cursor is active on the panel, the chart will be centered around the cursor
position (cursor mode).
Pressing ‘X’ key will remove the cursor, and the chart center will be positioned at the
vessel (vessel mode).
You can toggle between cursor mode and vessel mode by pressing the ‘X’ key .
Panning
By moving the cursor to the edge of the panel, the chart will be panned in the cursor’s
direction.
Look ahead
This option centres the chart slightly forward of your vessel so that
you can maximise your view ahead.
Setting the chart orientation
Several options are available for how the chart is rotated in the
panel. The chart orientation symbol in the panel’s upper right corner
indicates the north direction.
North up
Displays the chart with the north direction upward. This
corresponds to the usual orientation of nautical charts.
Heading up
Displays the chart with the vessel’s heading directly up
on the chart image.
Heading information is received from a compass. If
heading is not available, then the COG from the GPS
will be used.
Course up
Rotates the chart in the direction of the next waypoint
when in navigation mode.
This option works only when there’s an active route.
If no route is active the heading up orientation will be
used until a route is made active.
Selecting Chart Details Level
Low
This is the basic level of information that cannot be removed, and
includes information that is required in all geographic areas. It is not
intended to be sufficient for safe navigation.
Medium
This is the minimum information sufficient for navigation.
