Charting Enhancements

C-Map Chart Server/Client

With V4.1, RayTech can be a server or client of C-Map cartography transmitted over the hsb2 network. As part of a hsb2 network, RayTech is capable of serving C-Map cartography stored on the PC or read from a C- Map NT card reader. In this same configuration, RayTech can be a client of C-Map cartography served from Raymarine hsb2 chart plotters.

To use this feature, the RayTech PC must be connected to the hsb2 network via the RayTech hsb2 PC kit (Raymarine part number E80019).

Quilting On/Off

With Quilting off, only the chart that is in focus is displayed. When you get to the edge of the chart, you see its border. When you turn on Quilting, all quilted charts are viewable in that chart window. Chart borders are not displayed; when you pan to a chart’s edge, RayTech transitions to the next chart.

RayTech V4.1 features additional mechanisms for controlling quilting. In the Chart Info dialog, there is a checkbox for including a chart in the quilt and a button for displaying a chart alone. In the Chart Layers Toolbar is a new Quilting button for turning the feature on and off.

Zoom Control

RayTech V4.1 has a smooth zoom feature in which you can progressively zoom in and out of the chart by selecting the:

•Range button on the Pathfinder Panel

•Computer’s Tab (zoom in) and Shift+Tab (zoom out) keys

•Mouse wheel

Chart Information

RayTech V4.1 introduces a chart information feature. To access chart information for the chart that is currently in focus, click the right mouse button and select Chart Info from the pop-up menu.

The Chart Info dialog lists the chart name, scale, vendor, depth units, source, edition, projection, and the filename that RayTech used to save the chart during installation. The filename is constructed from the chart number. The Chart Info dialog features a checkbox that can be used to include or exclude the chart from the quilt. The Chart Information dialog also features a Show chart alone button. When this button is selected, the current chart window displays the selected chart by itself.
