OLOURS AND SYMBOLS
The implementation of the SENC information display has been done in accordance with IHO
regulations; colours and symbols used are compliant with “IHO Special Publication S52
Appendix 2 V3.4“ and “IEC publication 61174 Annex E“.
COURSE UP DISPLAY MODE
ENC may be displayed in two different modes, Course up or North up.
To select the display mode, right click on the chart and check on or off the item menu Course
up. North up symbol is shown in the top left corner of the chart area.
CELLS BORDERS
The cell boundaries are displayed on request using the dialogue “Chart Properties”.
A plain grey line or a dashed line is displayed inside the chart boundary: it is the border of the
"Administration Area". When the display is set to "Display Base" or "Standard", the area border
is plain.
ECDIS draws the boundary between navigational purposes (also called "Usages"). For
example, a boundary is shown around the total outline of all cells that belong to usage
"Approach".
CHART BORDERS
Chart borders display the chart status and permit status for the particular chart.
IMPORTANT
In case the chart is out of date or not installed its border is displayed as dashed line. The
colour of line corresponds to the permit status.
The chart borders have colour that corresponds to their status as follows:
solid red line permit is expired or invalid for current HWID
solid yellow line permit will be expired in less than one month
solid green line permit is valid
