You can move the cursor around the display by
pressing the arrow keys in the direction you want
it to move. This lets you view different areas of the
plotter, away from your present position. When it’s
turned on, the zoom-in and zoom-out keys work
from the cursor’s position - not the present posi-
tion, so you can zoom in on any detail, anywhere
while navigating. The latitude/longitude of the cur-
sor shows in the box at the top of the plot-1 screen
whenever the cursor is activated. The cursor is
also used to place and erase icons and waypoints.
Press the EXIT key to erase the cursor.
PLOTTER OPTIONS
The GlobalNav 200 lets you customize the plotter
using the “Plotter Options” menu. To use this menu,
first press the MENU key, then use the up or down
arrow keys to highlight the “Plotter Options” label.
Finally, press the right arrow key. The screen
shown at right appears.
Record Trail On / Off
The line extending from the present position dia-
mond on the plotter is call the plot trail. As each
dot on the trail is placed on the screen, it’s also
saved in memory. The plot trail recording can be
turned off, if desired. To turn it off, press the up or
down arrow key until the “Plot Trail” menu is high-
lighted and press the left arrow key.
Plotter Orientation
Normally, the GlobalNav 200 shows the plotter with north always at the
top of the screen. This is the way most maps and charts are printed on
paper. This is fine if you’re always travelling due north. Waypoints you see
to your left corresponds to the left side of the plotter, to your right is shown
on the right side of the plotter, and so on. However, if you travel any other
direction, the plotter doesn’t line up with your view of the world.
To correct this problem, the GlobalNav 200 has a track-up mode that
rotates the plotter as you turn. Thus, what you see on the left side of the
screen should always be to your left, and so on. It also has a course-up
mode that keeps the plotter at the same orientation as your initial bearing
to the waypoint.
