2.4 Plotter Display Control Functions

You will normally operate the GPS Plotter with the display showing one of the Navigation Data pages.

The range of pages is listed in Selecting the Display Mode on page 2-4and illustrated in Figure 2-5. The complete range of pages is described fully in Data Display Pages on page 3-2.

Moving Around the Plotter Screen

When using the plotter screen, the default orientation is North-Up, where the vessel moves across the screen. You will need to pan the display if your vessel moves out of the current area, or if you wish to examine or place waypoints in another area. Alternatively, you can home the cursor onto the vessel using FIND SHIP.

There are four ways in which you can move around the display:

•Use the trackpad to pan the display.

•Automatically home (re-center) the vessel using the FIND SHIP soft key.

•Use the context-sensitive cursor to change the display center.

•Change the display scale to zoom out and in to a new area centered on the cursor position. This method is useful if the area you wish to see is a long distance away.

Panning the Display

Panning the display is useful if the area you wish to see is only just off the screen.

➤Use the trackpad to move the cursor to the edge of the display; the display will pan across.

Using FIND SHIP

FIND SHIP is used to center the vessel on the screen, even if it is currently off screen:

➤Press the FIND SHIP soft key; the following actions occur:

•The display is re-drawn with the vessel’s position in the center.

•The cursor is homed (locked) to the vessel’s position and moves with it.

•When the vessel moves near the edge of the screen, the display is redrawn to place the vessel and cursor at the center.

•Whilst homed, the status bar indicates vessel position, speed and course over ground.
