Change the values to the required position, as follows:

a. Move the cursor to the first digit you wish to change, using the

left or right trackpad controls. When you move right from the

latitude direction, the cursor moves to the first longitude digit.

b. Increase or decrease the number, using the up or down

trackpad controls.

c. Repeat steps a and b until all the digits are set to the required

values.

d. Press ENTER to set the position.

4. The display returns to the CENTER soft keys display, with the new

chart position. Press CLEAR to return to the default display.

Using Home Mode

When you select the HOME option, the RayChart centres the vessel

and changes to Home Mode. In this mode:

• The cursor is not displayed, and is fixed to the vessel’s position

• The cursor data box displays the vessel’s current position; if you are

tracking to a waypoint, it also displays the waypoint name, bearing

and range

• In Head Up or Course Up modes (see Chapter 6), the display

changes to Relative Motion, in which the chart moves to keep the

vessel in the centre of the display.

➤ To return to the standard cursor and motion mode, press the trackpad.

The cursor reappears at the vessel’s current position, and the cursor

data box displays the cursor position data.
