Description
The
Set New Ship Centre
function
on the shortcut menu moves the
ship symbol away from the centre
of the view. Place the cursor
anywhere in the view, right-click
and select
Set New Ship Centre
. The function moves the vessel symbol to the selected
position.
The
Off Centre
page allows you to specify the range behaviour when the vessel symbol is
moved away from the centre of the view.
Keep Display Range
The range from the vessel symbol to the outer edge of the search area is automatically
adjusted in order to keep the scale of the presentation and avoid the "zoom" effect.
The value on the
Main
menu is changed accordingly.
Keep Sonar Range
The currently selected range value on the
Main
menu is kept. The distance from the
vessel to the outer edge of the search area is the same, but it is "stretched" out.
Tip
The Mk2 Operating Panel is fitted with three function buttons. The buttons are identified
as
F1
,
F2
and
F3
. Each button can be assigned a dedicated function.
Off Centre
is one of
the functions that can be assigned. This is the same function as
Set New Ship Centre
on the
shortcut menu. Place the cursor anywhere in the view and press the button. The function
moves the vessel symbol to the selected position.
The Mk1 Operating Panel offers a dedicated
Off Centre
button. (The Mk1 Operating Panel
is no longer provided with new sonars. This information is provided for legacy reasons.)
