CP42/50/52 Chart menus and INFO windows Chapter 3
33
All user data in the chart system are listed under ‘Chart settings’ in the display
example and are described below:
Chart can be set to
NORMAL, COMPRESSED and CHART OFF:
NORMAL
- will automatically select the chart level appropriate for the selected
range/scale.
COMPRESSED
- will change the range (scale) / chart level ratio one step, which,
depending on the actual chart, will select a more detailed level.
CHART OFF - will only show all the user-made data such as waypoints, routes,
lines and tracks, etc.
Boundary lines will indicate available C-MAP chart areas.
Mixing levels – when set to ON you will no longer see any blank chart areas, as
the C-MAP library will find the missing area in a different level to cover the
blank area otherwise left on the screen. However, when using this feature, chart
re-draw time will be increased a little.
Marine presentation can be set to INTERNATIONAL or AMERICAN:
INTERNATIONAL – will present NavAids in ‘real life’ shapes and colors for
quick visual recognition (as per official INT1 standard paper chart presentation).
AMERICAN – will present NavAids in simplified shapes and real colors (as
generally found on NOAA paper charts).
Simplified draw mode – when set to ON the NavAids will be shown in generic
symbols for minimum visual clutter on-screen.
Quick chart info – placing the chart cursor on a C-MAP object will activate a
small info window with details on the object. Info window will automatically
close after 10 seconds or when cursor is moved away.
Chart area can be set to
SMALL, MEDIUM
or
LARGE.
SMALL
– Opens a small chart area big enough to just fill the size of the screen.
When panning and scrolling, the chart will automatically be redrawn.
MEDIUM
– Opens a medium-size chart area for pan and scroll which goes beyond
the size of the screen. The chart redraw time increases equally.
LARGE
– Opens a large chart area for pan and scroll in a size which goes well
beyond the size of the screen. The chart redraw time increases equally.
