5.5 Where am I on the 3D chart?
Your current position is represented by a boat.
You can choose from a power boat or yacht.
To change the style of vessel displayed, see
page 128
.
If positional data has been selected for display
(see
page 281
), your position will be displayed in the data bar under VES POS.
Note:
If neither heading nor COG data is available, the boat symbol is not displayed
and the FIND SHIP soft key is greyed out.
5.6 Moving around the 3D chart
The 3D chart is operated in a similar way to a 2D chart. To move around the 3D chart
and display the area required at the appropriate scale and angle, use a combination
of panning, zooming, rotating and pitching:
Panning
Panning moves the 3D chart that is
displayed to a different area. To pan a 3D
chart, press the appropriate arrow (left/
right, up/down) on the trackpad.
Zooming in/out
Range OUT to show a larger area of the
chart (approximately 8nm maximum).
