You can select a dual chart panel by pressing and holding the Chart application button on
the Home page, or by creating a favorite page with two chart panels.
Selecting chart type
You specify the chart type in the Chart panel by selecting one of the available chart types in
the chart source menu option.
If you have a multiple Chart panel, the chart type is set individually for each chart panel.
Activate one of the chart panels, and then select one of the available chart types in the chart
source menu option. Repeat the process for the second chart panel, and select an alternative
chart type for this panel.
If you have identical charts available - built in, in the card slot or on the Ethernet network -
the system automatically selects the chart with most chart details for your displayed region.
Panning the chart
You can move the chart in any direction by dragging your finger on the screen.
Select the Clear cursor menu option or press the X key to remove the cursor and cursor
window from the panel. This also centers the chart to the vessel position.
Chart scale
You zoom in and out on the chart by using the zoom panel icons, the rotary knob, or by
using 2 fingers to pinch (zoom out) and spread (zoom in).
Chart range scale and range rings interval (when turned on) are shown in the lower right
corner of the chart panel.
Vessel symbol
When the system has a valid GPS position lock, the vessel symbol indicates vessel position. If
no GPS position is available, the vessel symbol includes a question mark.
Positioning the vessel on the chart panel
Chart orientation
Several options are available for how the chart is rotated in the panel. The chart orientation
symbol in the panel’s upper right corner indicates the north direction.
North up Heading up
Course up
North up
Displays the chart with north upward.
Heading up
Displays the chart with the vessel’s heading directed upward. Heading information is
received from a compass. If heading is not available, then the COG from the GPS is used.
Course up
Displays the chart with the direction the vessel is ACTUALLY traveling directed upward,
which in some cases is not the direction the vessel is headed.
Look ahead
Moves the vessel icon closer to the bottom of the screen so that you can maximize your view
ahead.
