8.1 Chart application overview
The chart application provides an electronic chart with navigation
features. It uses 2D perspective and provides a variety of
cartographic information regarding your surroundings and
charted objects.
Typical uses for the chart application include:
• Monitor your vessel location and course over ground (COG).
• Interpret your surroundings.
• Navigate using waypoints.
• Keep track and record your course.
• View information for charted objects.
Note: To obtain full chart details, you must have a cartography
chart card for the appropriate geographic area inserted into
the card reader.
You can also customize the chart application as follows:
• Control the level of detail displayed on-screen.
• Change the way the chart is drawn in relation to your vessel
position and the direction of travel.
• Display the COG vector.
• Change the depth at which the deep water contour changes
color.

Chart cards overview
Chart cards provide additional cartographic information.
Obtain detailed cartographic information for the area that
you navigate using Navionics® chart cards. To check the
current availability of Navionics chart card types, please
visit
www.navionics.com or www.navionics.it . The amount of
cartographic detail shown varies for different areas and for
different scales. The chart scale in use is indicated by the
on-screen chart scale, the number represents the distance the
line represents in nautical miles across the chart.
You can remove and insert chart cards while a chart is displayed
provided that you follow the correct procedure. The chart
information is retained on-screen until the chart application
redraws the screen; for example, when you pan outside the
current area, or change the chart scale.
Caution: Care of chart and memory
cards
To avoid irreparable damage to and / or loss of data
from chart and memory cards:
• Ensure that chart and memory cards are fitted
the correct way around. DO NOT try to force a
card into position.
• DO NOT save data (waypoints, tracks, and
so on) to a chart card, as the charts may be
overwritten.
• DO NOT use a metallic instrument such as a
screwdriver or pliers to insert or remove a chart
or memory card.
