Five pages are available in Marine Mode—Map, Compass,
Highway, Active Route, and Position Data. An optional XM Audio
Page can be enabled. And a Sonar Page is available when a GSD 20
or GSD 21 Sounder Module is connected.
Map Page
When you turn on the GPSMAP 376C, the Map Page appears after
the unit acquires a satellite signal. The position marker shows
your current location on the map.
The Map Page shows map information (digital cartography) that
includes navaids, lakes, rivers, coastlines, cities, and highways. Use
the dedicated zoom keys (
IN
and
OUT
) to adjust the Map Page
scale.
Two map operating modes, position mode and pan mode, determine
what cartography is shown on the map display. Position mode
pans the map to keep your present location in the display area.
The position marker shows your travel on the Map Page. The
GPSMAP 376C always turns on in position mode, with the last
known location centered on the map. When you press the
ROCKER
,
the GPSMAP 376C enters pan mode, which moves the map to keep
the white arrow (map pointer) within the display area.
The system has a built-in worldwide database, with more detailed
coverage available through the use of the BlueChart or MapSource
data. The GPSMAP 376C shows cartography as long as chart
information is available for the map zoom range you selected. In
Marine Mode, by default, four user-selectable data fields appear on
the right side of the screen that can be configured to show any one of
the possible data options. You can also add additional data fields to
the page or select a full screen map without data fields.
