selected these functions affect how the icons for Lights, Signals, Buoys and beacons are
displayed.
DISPLAY COLOR Changes the background colors of the chart page to enhance the visibility of the screen
depending on the surrounding light conditions. Selections are 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) and Sunlight (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).
