Chart
The chart page displays your position relative to land and other chart objects. On the page you can plan and navigate routes, place waypoints, overlay a radar image, a StructureMap image and weather information, and display AIS targets.
Note: This unit has different embedded cartography depending on the region.
The first part of this section describes how to use the charts, and is common to both Insight and Navionics. Chart options depend on which cartography is in use on the unit.

Vessel symbol
When a GPS and a suitable heading sensor are connected to the system, the vessel symbol indicates vessel position and heading.
Without a heading sensor installed, the icon will position itself using COG (Course over Ground). If no GPS is available the vessel symbol will include a question mark.
