area is visible. The perspective view allows showing more chart information immedi-
ately ahead and around the cursor.

3.5.1.2 Palette
'MENU' + "MAP SETTINGS" +'ENTER' + "Palette" + 'ENTER'
It is possible to set the palette used to enhance the visibility of the screen
depending on the surrounding light condition. The possible choices are Normal,
Classic, NOAA, Night Vision and Sunlight. The default setting is Classic. Normal
is recommended when the chart plotter is not exposed to the direct sunlight. When
this mode is set the maps are displayed in order to use colors as similar as possible to
the ones used in the original paper charts. Classic uses more vivid colors. Night
Vision is recommended when the environment is dark in order to reduce the glare
of the display. The chart plotter displays maps and screen in darker colors. Sunlight
is designed to enhance the visibility of the screen when the chart plotter is exposed to
the sunlight. The maps are much brighter than in the other modes and the depth
areas are filled with white color so different depth areas are not easily distinguish-
able. NOAA allows setting NOAA paper chart colors presentation.
