DISPLAY COLOR Changes the background colors of the chart page to enhance the visibility of the screen
depending on the surrounding light conditions. Normal is recommended when the GPS
Chart Plotter is not exposed to the direct sunlight. When this mode is set the maps are
displayed in order to use colors as similar as possible to ones used in the original paper
charts. Classic uses vivid chart colors presentation. NOAA allows setting NOAA paper
chart colors presentation. Night is recommended when the environment is dark in order
to reduce the glare of the display. The GPS Chart Plotter displays maps and screen in
darker colors. Sunlight (default) is designed to enhance the visibility of the screen when
the GPS Chart Plotter is exposed to sunlight. The maps are much brighter than in the other
modes and the depth areas are filled with the white color so different depth areas are not
easily distinguishable.
SHIP ICON Allows selection of one of 5 choices of ship icons that represent your vessels position
shown on the chart page.
