Understanding the Radar Overlay Screen
The radar overlay screen places the radar picture directly onto the navigation chart.
To access the radar overlay screen, from the Home screen select Radar > Radar Overlay.
Radar range
To access the radar overlay screen:
From the Home screen, select Radar > Radar Overlay.
The radar picture appears in orange and overlays the Navigation chart. Use the RANGE (+/-) keys
to zoom in and out. Zooming while panning the map only affects the zoom scale of the map. The
radar range remains the same. Zooming while the map is locked on the boat (not panning) affects the
zoom scale of the map and the radar range.
