The Current Screens
The Current screen displays the time of the maximum current, its speed, its
angle (direction) and the time of the slack water for the date and station indi-
cated on the screen. There may be more current information than can be dis-
played on one screen. You can use the up and down arrows to scroll through
the available data.
You can also view a graph of the current for the 24 hour period of the day you
have selected. The upper portion of the graph represents the current of the ris-
ing tide, the lower represents the current of the falling tide. The horizontal line
through the center at 00.00 represents the slack water. Each peak represents
the maximum current.
Accessing the Current Screen
1) From any screen, press the Menu key. Use the up or
down arrows to highlight “Tide/Current” and press
the Enter key. As a reminder, the Current screen is
available only when a MapSend BlueNav chart has
been uploaded and is active. If current information is
not available, only “Tide” will be displayed as a menu
option.
2) Use the right arrow to select the “Current” tab.
