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.

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.
