Plotter Screen Overview

Changing Plotter Scale

Press the Zoom In or the Zoom Out buttons to change how much of the usable plotter
area is displayed on the screen. The plotter scale indicator in the bottom left corner of
the plotter indicates the relative distance between the two end-points of the scale.
The scale can be changed from 1700 mi (2700 km) to 100 ft (35.0 m).

Tip:

Press and hold the Zoom In or the Zoom Out buttons to rapidly step through

the plotter scales.

Plotter Screen Modes

The

screen has two modes that it can be in: position or cursor. In the Position

mode the Plotter screen displays your position, indicated by the arrow icon in the
center of the plotter. The arrow not only displays your position
but also, when moving, will point in the direction you are
heading.

The Position mode is the default mode for the

Plotter

screen.

Whenever you enter the

Plotter

screen it will be in the Position
