2. PLOTTER AND PILOT DISPLAY DESCRIPTION
2.1.2
Pilot display
The pilot display is similar to the plotter display, with the following differences.
1) The pilot display orientation is always auto course-up. The course is at the
top of screen at the moment the pilot display is selected. A filled triangle
marks own ship's position. When own ship is off its intended course by 22.5°
or more, it is automatically brought back to perpendicular.
2) The north mark ( ) appears at the bottom of the screen and points to north.
3) The grid lines denote the distance from own ship, not longitude/latitude.
Note: When north is not at the top of screen, the distance error may be larger
than on the plotter display since the Mercator projection is used.
When selecting
PILOT NAV INFO 1 (or 2),
the NAV INFO window
appears here.
