Chapter 5: 3D Chart 119
5.8 Changing the mode
You can choose to view the chart in one of two modes:
•Active motion mode.
Planning mode.
Active motion mode
This is the default mode when you open the 3D application provided that there is a
valid fix. The screen shows an aerial view of the 3D chart as if you are above your
boat, slightly behind it and looking forward (virtual eye point).
You can also view the chart from different positions relative to your boat - see “View
options” on page 120. As your boat moves forward the chart automatically updates
and reveals the changing view ahead.
Note:
In active motion mode you can adjust the pitch when ADJUST ON is set to CEN-
TRE, but rotating or panning the chart will put it into planning mode.
Planning mode
Planning mode enables you to view an area of the chart, different to the one in
which you are navigating, so that you can analyse locations and features. You can
use the controls to view a particular area from different angles, bearings and ranges.
The chart no longer automatically keeps your boat on-screen.
When you are in planning mode, the controls and functions available are the same
as for active motion mode.
To enter planing mode:
Pan to the area of the chart that you want to
view or
Turn the rotary control (except if set to CENTRE
and ADJUST PITCH).
Planning mode is indicated in the status bar by brackets around the mode
information e.g. (FWD).
