General Tab

Detail— Most, More, Normal, Less, Least: controls how much map detail you will see. This setting

only applies to any map feature set to “Auto”. Those features which have a specified scale or turned

“Off” are unaffected by this setting.

Orientation— North Up— fixes the top of the map display to a north heading; Track Up— fixes the

top of the map display to the current track heading; Course Up— fixes the map so the direction of

navigation is always “up” and turns the navigation leg line vertical on the screen.

AutoZoom— On/Off: when “On” the map will automatically adjust the map scale to a lower scale as

you approach you destination point.

Color Mode (182/232 monochrome only) — Water Mode, Land Mode: when in “Water Mode”, land

will appear as a dark color and water will be light. In “Land Mode”, land will appear as a light color
and water will be dark. If using optional BlueChart data, it is recommended to use ‘Water Mode’.
