Controlling a Video Camera Using Gestures
When a networked video camera supports gesture responses, you can control pan-tilt-zoom cameras using
gestures directly on the chartplotter screen. Check your camera user manual for a list of available features.
TIP: Using gestures allows video control without displaying the video controls.
1 From a video screen, touch the screen.
2 Select an option:
• To zoom in and out with the camera, use pinch and zoom gestures.
• To pan or tilt the camera, swipe the screen in the desired direction.
Configuring the Video Appearance
NOTE: Not all options are available on all camera models and chartplotter models.
1 From the video screen, select Menu > Video Setup.
2 Select an option:
• To show the video using a stretched aspect ratio, select Aspect > Stretch. The video cannot be stretched
beyond the dimensions provided by the connected video device, and it may not fill the entire screen.
• To show the video using a standard aspect ratio, select Aspect > Standard.
• To adjust the brightness, select Brightness, and select Up, Down, or Auto.
• To adjust the color saturation, select Saturation, and select Up, Down, or Auto.
