Tide Information screen.
The Tide Information screen displays daily tidal data for the station at
the present time. The graph at the top of the screen is an approximate
view of the tidal range pattern for the day, from midnight (MN), to
noon (NN) to midnight (MN). The dotted line across the graph is the
Mean Lower Low Water line (MLLW).
The height scale on the top right side of the graph changes, based upon
the maximum range of the tide for that day. The MLLW line also
adjusts its position as the height scale changes.
You can look up tidal data for other dates by changing the month, day
and year selection boxes. To select another date:
1. Use and to highlight month, day or year, then press
ENT.
2. Use and to select the desired month, day or year, then press
ENT.
To clear the information screen, press
EXIT.
