Zooming: Use the Plus (+) key to Zoom In and the Minus (-) key to Zoom Out showing
the cartography at different scales. The scale is indicated on the left side of the display.
If you zoom in beyond the available chart data, the display will go into Overzoom mode
whereby the last available chart data is amplified to reflect the scale selected. If you
zoom in so far that no cartography is available, a lat/lon grid will be drawn instead.
Chart Info: Use the INFO key to get detailed information about the chart. If the cursor
is active, you will see information about the chart objects located near the cursor. If the
cursor is not active, the Chart Info menu will appear. You can select the nearest port,
the nearest tide station, or the nearest current station to see information about any of
these objects.
NOTE: The built-in UniMap™ does not contain any Port, Tide or Current information. This
information is only available from optional-purchase MMC/SD cards.
Nearest Port: The position and services information for the nearest port to your
present position will be displayed. Press the EXIT key to remove the information box
and the Bullseye Cursor will be centered over the port position. The Cursor Information
Boxes will indicate the distance and bearing to the port from your present position.
Nearest Tide Station: Tide information for the nearest tide station to your present
position will be displayed. This includes the position of the station and the times of the
high and low tides for today’s date. A tide graph is also displayed showing the rise and
fall of the tides for the 24 hour time period encompassing the date. You can change the
date to look at tide information before or after the date displayed by pressing the LEFT
or RIGHT Cursor key respectively. Press the EXIT key to remove the information box and
the Bullseye Cursor will be centered over the tide station position. The cursor
information boxes will indicate the distance and bearing to the tide station from your
present position.
Nearest Current Station: Current information for the nearest current station to your
present position will be displayed. This includes the position of the station and the
current changes for today. Two graphs are also presented that show the time, direction
and flow speed of the current changes for the 24 hour time period of today’s date. You
can change the date to look at current information before or after the date displayed
by pressing the LEFT or RIGHT Cursor key respectively. Press the EXIT key to remove the
information box and the Bullseye Cursor will be centered over the current station
position. The Cursor Information Boxes will indicate the distance and bearing to the
current station from your present position.
