Navionics XL3 charts
Navionics XL3 series chart cartridges
contain several chart
regions in each
cartridge. When you’re using these
cartridges, select the region you wish to
use by displaying the
CHART
screen and
pressing the
CHART
key a second time. A
list of available regions is displayed. Press
the menu key corresponding to the desired
region. (Under some conditions this selec-
tion screen is shown automatically when
you insert the XL3 cartridge.)
Using XL3 charts on multiple
networked displays
A master 6000i unit displays the regions
from the cartridge plugged into it. A slave
unit displays all the regions from the
master’s cartridge, plus those from its own
cartridge, if any. Cartridges plugged into a
slave unit can only be used on that one
unit.
Note that selecting a region on one unit
does not cause other units to switch to the
same region. Each unit is independent with
regard to region selection.

If you have two or more units installed
side-by-side, you can navigate with one
unit while using another unit for trip
planning in another region.
Zooming in and out
To get a closer look at the chart area
around your vessel or around the cursor,
press the
IN
key to zoom in. To see a wider
area, press
OUT
to zoom out. Each press of
IN
or
OUT
approximately halves or doubles
the chart scale.
Each chart has a maximum usable level of
magnification. When you zoom in one step
past that level, a portion of the chart screen
and much of its text and symbols are
doubled in size to fill the screen for easier
viewing from a distance.
