CP40/50 Chart menus and INFO windows Chapter 3
33
All user data in the CP40/50 system are described below.
To obtain a “cleaner” view of the chart details, you can turn some of
the settings OFF if they do not contribute to the clarity of the chart area
you wish to explore. All the listed objects that can be turned on and off
speaks for themselves – they are either “shown on the chart” or “not
shown on the chart”.
Chart settings
Chart can be turned off, so all you have in the chart display are user-
made data such as waypoints, routes, lines and tracks, etc.
Chart area can be set to LARGE, MEDIUM or SMALL.
LARGE – Opens a large chart area for pan and scroll. Chart re-draw
time is standard.
MEDIUM – Opens a medium-size chart area for pan and scroll.
Chart re-draw time is faster than standard.
SMALL – Opens a small chart area for pan and scroll. Chart re-draw
time is the fastest.
Landfilling can be ON or OFF. When OFF there will be no special
color to indicate where the land on the chart is (if any) i.e. land will be
all blue.
Boundary lines will indicate available C-MAP chart areas.
Orientation can be set to NORTH UP, HEAD UP or NAV UP, and the
mode can be RELATIVE or TRUE motion. However, with cursor on
chart, Orientation will always be NORTH UP.
NORTH UP – The chart will always be presented as north up.
HEAD UP – The chart will automatically turn, so your actual course
(COG) is up. If a compass is connected, the reference will automatic-
ally change to heading (compass).
NAV UP – The chart will automatically turn, so your bearing to desti-
nation is up.
TRUE motion – The ‘ship’ will move across the chart.
RELATIVE motion – The ‘ship’ is locked to the center of the screen and
the chart will move.
