Tide Vector
When the Tide Vector is switched on, your vessel is displayed on the chart with
a solid line extending from it indicating T (tide) angle.
The tide information is calculated from the speed through the water and the
compass data, compared with COG and SOG information from the GPS. It is
therefore only displayed if all this information is available.
Dead Reckoning
If you set Dead Reckoning to ON, the chartplotter will calculate your position
by dead reckoning if position data is lost. The dead reckoned position is
calculated from your speed and heading (if available), and a dead reckoning
indicator is shown at the top left of the display.
Set Dead Reckoning to OFF if you do not wish to use a calculated position.
Cursor Data Box
This option controls whether or not the cursor data box is displayed. If you turn
it off, only the depth units and scale rule are displayed at the top left of the
screen.
