The chart can be shown in head-up, course-up or north-up orientation. To select an
orientation mode, use the RotoKey to select the [Head Up], [North Up] or [Course Up]
soft control. Another method is to put the cursor on the orientation mode icon at the
top-left position then push the left-click button.
Description of orientation modes
Head-up: Displays the chart with the current compass heading of your vessel at the
top of the screen. The heading data from a compass is required. When the heading
changes, the boat icon remains fixed, and the chart picture rotates according to head-
ing.
North-up: North is at the top of the screen. When your heading changes, the boat icon
moves according to heading. This mode is for long-range navigation.
Course-up: The chart picture is stabilized, and shown with your current course (over
ground) at the top of the screen. The boat icon moves with the heading. If you select
a new course, the picture resets to display the new course at the top of the screen.
