Chart orientation

The orientation of the chart affects the alignment of the chart relative to your vessel, route or North.

Boat position

Adjust the boat position to allow more or less 'look ahead' space in front of your boat.
Sync view with other charts
Synchronize the orientation and position of all charts that have this setting enabled.

Camera tracking

When connected to a compatible Pan and Tilt Thermal camera you can track targets or point your
camera at a specific target or area.
2 options are available for camera tracking:
• Point camera here — Points the camera at a specific point onscreen, the camera will remain
pointed at this area regardless of your own vessel's course.
• Track with camera — Tracks a selected target regardless of your own vessel's or target's course.
Camera tracking options are available from the Context menu in the Chart and Radar apps: Context
menu > more options > Point camera here, or Context menu > more options > Track with camera.
Automatic tracking
You can use the Camera app settings to configure automatic tracking for AIS, Radar and MoB targets:
Camera app > Menu > Settings > Camera motion > AUTO TRACKING

8.2 Cartography overview

The Chart app includes a basic world base map. To use the Chart app for navigation purposes,
compatible, detailed Electronic Navigational Charts (ENC) or Raster Navigational Charts (RNC) are
required.
• Raster Navigational Chart (RNC) — A Raster chart is a digital image of a paper chart and therefor
the available information is limited to the information available on the paper equivalent.
• Electronic Navigational Chart (ENC) — ENCs are Vector based charts and include information that
is not available on paper or Raster charts. Objects and features on Vector charts can be selected
to obtain databased information that otherwise would not be readily available. Object and features
can also be enabled and disabled or customized.
Note:
• The level of detail and features available on charts is dependent on vendor, chart type,
subscription level and geographic region. Prior to purchasing charts check the vendor's website
to establish what level of detail is available on the charts you want to purchase.
• The information relating to available chart detail and settings in this manual should be treated as
guidance only as it is subject to change that is not under Raymarine's control.
The Chart app range scale will also effect the level of detail shown onscreen. Generally more detail
is available at lower ranges. The chart scale in use is indicated by the scale indicator, the value
displayed is the distance that the line represents across the screen.
You can remove and insert chart cards at any time. The chart screen is automatically redrawn when
the system detects that a compatible chart card has been inserted or removed.
Different cartography types can be viewed simultaneously using an app page that includes multiple
instances of the Chart app.
