Chapter 2: Getting Started & Adjusting the Display 2-23
Typical Chart
Scenarios
• If Plotter Mode is Off, the chart scale remains unchanged, indicating
the smallest chart scale is displayed.
Note: If Plotter Mode is Off and the cursor is homed to the vessel (see
Using FIND SHIP on page 2-20), if the vessel moves outside an area of
available cartography, the chart will automatically re-scale to the next
range with cartography.
• If Plotter Mode is On, the scale is decreased and the message
NO CHART
DATA
is displayed. The vessel, waypoints, routes and tracklines are dis-
played without cartography.
The chart information is restored when you return to a chart scale for which the
information is available.
➤ To zoom out to a smaller-scale (less detailed) chart, simply press the upper part
of the
RANGE key as many times as required.
