Adding a new area to a user chart
An area of a user chart can be used, for example, to define a safe water area for display on the Radar. To add a new
user chart area, do the following:
1. Open the Area page as described on the previous page. Check Enable changes.
2. Click the Add button in the Area field.
3. Give a name for the area and check Danger Area to use it in chart alert calculation and check "On Radar" to
show the area on the radar as well.
4. Define corner points on the electronic chart area using the cursor and the left button.
5. To define more areas, continue from step 2.
Choosing an area of a user chart to modify
In the Area field, the topmost box displays the user charts selected for modification. To modify a different area, two
methods are available:
•
Enter desired area number in the box at the top of the Area window, and use the scrollwheel to enter applicable
number.
•
Use the Info feature to find area. Place the cursor on the desired corner point of the area on the electronic chart
then push the scrollwheel.
Changing position of corner point
The easiest way to move a corner point is to drag and drop it to a desired position. This can be done as follows:
1. Open user chart then check Enable changes on the Plan User Chart dialog box.
2. Choose appropriate chart scale so you can see desired area of user chart on display.
3. Place the cursor on the corner point you want to move to a new position.
4. While pressing and holding down the left button, roll the trackball to place the cursor on desired position. Keep
the button held down while you move the cursor and release it when the cursor is at the position desired.
Deleting an area from a user chart
To completely delete an area from a user chart, check Enable changes on the Plan User Chart dialog box. Choose
desired area object to display from the Area field then click the
Delete button.
