Displaying Object Information

5-4 hsb2 PLUS Series Color LCD Display

The boundary of each chart digitized in the current card is defined by a box or rectangle. (You can switch off the chart boundaries display if you wish, as part of the chartplotter set up described in Section 7.7.)

➤To zoom in:

1.Use the trackpad to move the cursor inside one of the chart boxes, and press the lower part of the RANGE key.

	That area is expanded, with the cursor at the centre, so that you can see
RANGE	more detail. Note that the smaller the chart box is on the screen, the further
	you can zoom in and the greater the amount of detail that is available.

If you have switched on Plotter Mode (see Section 7.7), you can zoom in further than the most detailed chart; all chart functions remain available.

Displaying Object Information

If your chart includes port and tide data, this can be displayed along with information for the nearest port facility (for a selected position). Chart source data is also available. You use the context- sensitive cursor to identify the object and display detailed information.

➤To obtain the chart object, port or tide information:

1.Move the cursor over the symbol for which you require the information. An Object data box such as the following is displayed at the lower left cor- ner of the screen:
