Chart Orientation

The chart orientation is normally North Up, but can be changed to

Course Up or Head Up if heading data is available. The orientation

modes give the following displays:

• North Up: The chart is displayed with north upwards. As you change

heading, the ship’s heading marker moves. This is the default mode,

and is the only mode available if there is no heading data.

• Course Up: The chart is stabilised and displayed with the currently

selected course upwards. If you select a new course, the picture

rotates to display the new course upwards.

The reference used for the Course Up depends on the information

available. The first available in the following is used:

1. A locked heading over a SeaTalk connection

2. The heading at the time Course Up was selected

To update the Course Up reference whilst Course Up is the current

mode, re-select Course Up from the set up menu.

• Head Up: The chart is displayed with the vessel’s current heading

upwards. As the heading changes the chart will rotate.
