Plotter Mode

Plotter Mode enables you to zoom into a smaller area, even when no chart data is available for that scale. This allows you use the chartplotter functions at large scales even when a chart card is not installed.

Chart Orientation

The chart orientation is normally North Up, but can be changed to Course Up or Head Up if heading data is available. The orientation modes give the following displays:

•North Up: The chart is displayed with north upwards. As you change heading, the ship’s heading marker moves. This is the default mode, and is the only mode available if there is no heading data.

•Course Up: The chart is stabilized and displayed with the currently selected course upwards. If you select a new course, the picture rotates to display the new course upwards.

The reference used for the Course Up depends on the information avail- able. The first available in the following is used:

i.A locked heading over a SeaTalk connection

ii.The heading at the time Course Up was selected

To update the Course Up reference while Course Up is the current mode, re-select Course Up from the set up menu.

•Head Up: The chart is displayed with the vessel’s current heading upwards. As the heading changes the chart will rotate.
