2. PLOTTER AND PILOT DISPLAY DESCRIPTION
2-2
2.1.2 Pilot display
The pilot display is similar to the plotter display, with the following differences.
1) The pilot display orientation is always auto course-up. The course is at the
top of screen at the moment the pilot display is selected. A filled triangle
marks own ship’s position. When own ship is off its intended course by 22.5°
or more, it is automatically brought back to perpendicular.
2) The north mark ( ) appears at the bottom of the screen and points to north.
3) The grid lines denote the distance from own ship, not longitude/latitude.
Note: When north is not at the top of screen, the distance error may be larger
than on the plotter display since the Mercator projection is used.
