2.1.1 Cross Cursor

When on the Full Radar page or when the focus is on the Radar window, moving

the Cursor Keys will show the cursor on the screen. It is automatically hidden

when the Cursor is not used for more than 5 seconds. It can temporarily be

hidden to check for small targets under it by pressing [CLEAR].

When the Cursor Keys are moved a popup window will show the position of the

Cursor, the Distance and Bearing from the cursor to the vessels position.

It is context-sensitive. The following table reports the list of objects and the labels

Chart Overlay function merges Radar and chart data into a single picture by

drawing Radar targets over the cartography. When in Chart Overlay mode, the

chart inherits the Radar page setting, e.g. Orientation, True Motion mode (for

more information refer to Chapter 6, 6.16).

To enable (On) or disable (Off) the Chart Overlay follow this procedure:

[MENU] + "Chart Overlay" + [ENTER] + "On"/"Off" + [ENTER]

NOTE

Requires a heading and a position sensor connected to the chart plotter

through an NMEA 0183 interface. The heading sensor can be either a

gyrocompass or a fluxgate compass. The gyrocompass provides the best

performance in all conditions.
