Viewing the Plotter: Zoom & Cursor Arrow Keys

The plotter is presented from a bird's eye view perspective. The current zoom range shows in the lower right corner of the screen.

1.Press the ZIN key (zoom in) to move in closer and see greater detail in a smaller geographic area.

2.Press the ZOUT key (zoom out) to move farther away and see less de- tail, but a larger geographic area.

When you are traveling, the plotter will automatically move as you move. This keeps your current location roughly centered on the screen.

You can manually pan or scroll the plotter northward, southward, eastward or westward by using the arrow keys, which launch the cross- hair cursor. This allows you to look at places on the plotter other than your current position. To clear the cursor, press EXIT, which jumps the display back to the current position or the last known position.

Selecting Any Plotter Item With the Cursor

1.Use the zoom keys and the arrow keys to move around the plotter and find the item you wish to select.

2.Use the arrow keys and center the cursor cross-hair on the desired ob- ject. On most items, a pop-up box will give the name of the selected item.

Navigate to Cursor Position on Plotter

The GO TO CURSOR command navigates to the current cursor position on the plotter. It's a quick and handy way to navigate to anything you can see on the plotter display.

1.Use the cursor (controlled by the arrow keys) with the zoom in and zoom out keys to maneuver around the plotter until you find a location you want to go to.

2.Center the cursor over the location to select it. See the example in the following figure.
