Bird’s Eye View (with optional-purchase GPS receiver)
Bird's Eye View - This view is only available if you have purchased and connected a GPS Receiver,
and shows a 3-D perspective view of the track and the chart’s land contour from a point above and
behind the boat (the eye point). As the boat turns, the eye point moves to follow the boat.
When you press the 4-WAY Cursor key in the Bird’s Eye View, the position of the eye point will shift.
This allows you to move and turn the eye point so that you can look off to the sides, or even behind
the boat. Pressing the RIGHT or LEFT arrow keys on the 4-WAY Cursor key turns the eye point right
or left, while pressing the UP arrow key moves the eye point forward, and pressing the DOWN
arrow key moves the eye point backward.
Pressing the EXIT key moves the eye point back to its original position behind and above the boat.
