Nav Sub Tab

Use the Nav sub tab to show or hide certain navigational features on the Map

Page and the scale at which they appear.

The Nav sub tab contains the following options:

• AutoZoom—toggles the automatic zoom on or off. When On, the map

automatically adjusts the map to a lower range as you approach your

destination point.

• Accuracy Circle—toggles the circle on or off. The circle represents the

approximate accuracy of the GPS position based on EPE (Estimated

Position Error) and map data quality. Your actual location is somewhere

within the circle.

• Bearing line—sets the maximum scale at which the feature appears on the

screen and toggles the red/yellow line that continually points to the current

navigation point. Select Off, All Ranges, Auto, or <30 ft to <800 nm.

• Course line—sets the maximum zoom scale at which the course line

appears on-screen. Select Auto, Off, or <120 ft to <800 nm.

• heading line—draws an extension from the end of the boat icon in the

direction of travel. For Distance, enter the numeric distance value to which

you want the line to extend. For Time, enter the numeric time value for

which you want the line to extend. The Time line length automatically

adjusts as your speed changes.

AIS Sub Tab

AIS (Automatic Identification System) alerts you to area traffic. AIS provides

ship IDs, position, course, and speed for ships equipped with a transponder within

range.

NOTE: You must set your chartplotter communication to NMEA In/NMEA

Out with a baud rate of 38,400 to receive AIS information.
