Course Up
In Course Up mode, during active navigation,
the Chart application displays the vessel's current
destination waypoint directly up. When the
destination waypoint changes the chart picture
rotates accordingly. The reference used for Course
Up depends upon the information available at a given
time. The system always prioritizes this information
in the following order:
1. Bearing Origin to waypoint
2. Locked heading from an Autopilot
3. BTW (Bearing To Waypoint)
4. Heading snapshot
5. Stable COG
6. North Up
If Heading or stable COG data is no longer present
then the Orientation mode is suspended and the
Chart application will display 0 degrees directly up
if there is no active navigation or Course Up if there
is active navigation.
Setting the chart orientation
From the Chart application menu:
1. Select Presentation.
2. Select View & Motion.
3. Select Chart Orientation.
4. Select Head Up, North Up (default), or Course
Up option as appropriate.
Once selected the screen will update to reflect
the new orientation.

14.11 Chart motion mode

The motion mode controls the relationship between
the chart and your vessel.
Whilst motion mode is active, as your vessel moves,
the chart is redrawn to keep the vessel on-screen.
The 3 motion modes are:
• Relative Motion (default)
• True Motion
• Auto Range.
D12299-2
Note: In the 3D chart view, only Relative Motion
mode is available.
The current motion mode applies to the active
instance of the chart application.
When you pan the chart the motion mode is no
longer active. This is indicated in the status bar by
brackets around the motion mode — for example,
(Relative Motion). This enables you to view another
area of the chart whilst navigating. To reset the
motion mode and return your vessel to the screen,
select the Find Ship icon or select Find Ship from
the menu. Manually changing the range or panning
the chart in auto range also suspends motion mode.
The default setting is relative motion with the boat
icon positioned in the center of the screen. The
mode that you select is restored at power up.
