Switching Radar Range Rings or Chart Grid On and Off
The radar range rings can be turned on or off. They are normally left on, but
you may wish to turn them off if you are using VRM/EBLs or guard zones (see
Section 3.4 and Section 3.5) to make the display clearer.
The Chartplotter display includes grid lines of latitude and longitude which
you can use to help determine position on the chart. The grid lines can be
switched on if required.
If you are in Chart mode the
RNGE RNGS soft key is replaced by the CHRT GRID
soft key.

1. Press the
SCREEN default soft key.
2. Press the
RANGE RINGS or the CHRT GRID soft key to toggle the setting from
OFF to ON or from ON to OFF.
