1.7 How to Use the Cursor
1.7.1 Cursor information box
Cursor data can be shown in latitude and longitude position or the cursor’s X-Y co-
ordinates.
Place cursor on the cursor data box at the right side of the display then press the left
button . The data box shows the cursor information in the upper half and cursor loca-
tion (latitude/longitude) is shown in the lower half.
Note 1: For the X-Y co-ordinates display, the Y-axis is the heading line, the upper half
of the screen is “plus” and the lower part of the screen is “minus”. The X-axis is the
port/starboard direction, starboard is “plus”, port is “minus”.
Note 2: Cursor data reads "- - -.-" when the cursor is placed outside the operational
display area.
1.7.2 How to select the cursor function
Functions that require the use of the cursor, such as EBL offset and zoom, can be ac-
tivated directly from the guidance box, either method with the cursor inside the oper-
ational display area. Below is the procedure for choosing cursor-related functions from
the [CURSOR] menu.
