Bird's Eye View

Bird's Eye View shows a 3D perspective view of the track and the chart land contour from a point above
and behind the boat (the eye point).

As the boat turns, the eye point moves to follow the boat. When you press the 4-WAY Cursor key in any of the
Bird’s Eye Views, the position of the eye point will shift. This allows you to move and turn the eye point so that
you can look off to the sides, or even behind the boat. Pressing the RIGHT or LEFT arrow keys on the 4-WAY Cursor
key turns the eye point right or left, while pressing the UP arrow key moves the eye point forward, and pressing
the DOWN arrow key moves the eye point backward.

Pressing the EXIT key moves the eye point back to its original position behind and above the boat.

NOTE: Only the standard configuration readouts are shown in the graphics. Readouts can be customized to suit
your needs.

NOTE: If all selectable readout boxes are turned off below the Bird's Eye pane, the window will stretch to fill
the whole vertical pane. See Navigation X-Press™ menu: Select Readouts for more information.
