The following picture illustrates this function in an actual system where the mode function is used in the 4 XDi-N
indicators out of the 5 indicators in an overhead panel:
In XDi 1 (Weather) the toggle order of the screen is changed to: Sc. 4, Sc. 2, Sc. 3 and Sc. 1
In XDi 2 and 3 (Combi 1 and 2) the screen order is the default 1, 2, 3, 4
XDi 4 (Combi 3) use VI004 that has only 3 screens and the first screen (Sc. 1) is used in both Mode 1 and 2
XDi 5 (Rudder) is a XDi Dual version with a fixed MED approved rudder indicator, that is independent of mode.
The above example is not from a real ships application, but the XDi demo system used on several exhibitions.
