In the Chart Views, there are several cartography-related functions that you can
access using the keys on your control head.
Chart View with Cursor Present,
shown with Optional-Purchase
Navionics® Cartography
Zooming: Press the Plus (+) key to Zoom In and the Minus (-) key to Zoom Out to
see the cartography at different magnification levels. The zoom level is indicated
on the left side of the display. If you zoom in beyond the available chart data, the
display will go into Overzoom mode whereby the last available chart data is
amplified to reflect the level selected. If you zoom in so far that no cartography is
available, a lat/long grid will be drawn instead.
Decluttered Waypoints: When two or more waypoints overlap, or are displayed
close together on a chart view, the screen will automatically declutter—
waypoint names will shorten and the waypoint icons will change into small
blue icons.
To view a Decluttered Waypoint at full size, use the 4-WAY Cursor Control key
to move the cursor onto a decluttered waypoint icon. When the cursor snaps
onto the icon, the full-size waypoint name and icon will be displayed. You can
also press the ZOOM+ key until you can see the individual waypoints on the
screen.

Panning: Use the 4-WAY Cursor Control
key to move the chart around on the
display in the direction of the key being
pressed. When you do this, a bull's eye
cursor is drawn at the center of the screen
and is linked to the boat by a gray line,
even if the boat is off the screen. At the
same time, the distance and bearing from
the boat to the cursor position and the
latitude/longitude coordinates of the
cursor are displayed in the upper info
boxes.
