Standard Horizon CP150C owner manual Land Settings, Chart Settings

Land Settings

The Land Settings menu controls the level of cartographic details shown.

Rivers & Lakes: Enables / Disables the display of Rivers and Lakes. The default setting is On.

Natural Features: Enables / Disables the display of the Natural Features (any topographic feature formed by the action of natural process e.g. coastlines, relief…). The default setting is On.

Cultural Features: Enables / Disables the display of the Cultural Features (any man-made topographic features e.g. built-up area, roads…). The default setting is On.

Landmarks: Enables / Disables the display of the Landmarks (any prominent object such as monument, building, silo, tower, mast,… on land which can be used in determining a location or a direction). The default setting is On.

Chart Settings

The Chart Settings menu controls the details shown from a C-MAP C-CARD. Lat/Lon Grid: Enables / Disables the display of the Latitude and Longitude grid.

The default setting is On.

Chart Boundaries: Enables / Disables the display of the Chart Boundaries. Auto setting instead, allows showing only boundaries for the next four charts contai- ned on the C-CARD. The default setting is On.

Cartography: Enables / Disables the Cartography. The default setting is On. Used to zoom-in and pan everywhere regardless the existence of data. While in "virtual cartography" (Cartography Off), by setting Cartography On from menu, the chart plotter displays the previous scale level with charts. Again while in Cartography On, the chart plotter will work in the same way also when you exit from the charts coverage, panning with the cursor or because of a ship position change. When in Cartography Off, it is also possible to have virtual cartography between two subsequent scale levels with charts.

Mixing Levels: Enables / Disables the Mixing Levels. The default setting is Off. When the map coverage at the current zoom level does not fill the entire screen, the chart plotter draws the rest of the map expanding the cartographic informa- tion read from, at most, two zoom levels above the current zoom level. For this reason the map is drawn three times: firstly it draws the two levels before the current level and then the current level. The area covered by the cartographic data read from the previous levels is identified by a dotted pattern. When the cursor is moved on an area not covered by data of the current level and the Cartography item is switched Off, the chart plotter zooms out to the first level covered by cartographic data. When the Cartography item is switched On, the cursor can be moved on the areas obtained from the previous levels but no information is provided on the objects found on that area since it is considered not suitable for navigation at that scale level.

NOTE

The Mixing Levels function works only with the new NT+ C-CARDs. It also affects the speed of the redraw of the screen. If this function is not used it maybe disabled.
