1.3 Operating Controls
To control the chartplotter, the keys on the display unit are used with on-screen
facilities such as pop-up menus. These include:
• A trackpad providing up, down, left, right and diagonal control of an on-
screen cursor.
• Eight dedicated (labelled) keys.
• Four soft keys with labels displayed on the screen.
• Pop-up menus, displayed on-screen, from which you select options.
• Database lists, displayed on-screen, which enable you to edit items.
Note: The cursor is the cross symbol (
✣
) visible on the display. You move the
cursor with the trackpad and use it to select a position or item on the chart.
The controls are shown on the following illustration. They are back-lit for night-
time use. Many controls display a help message; you can switch help (and soft
key labels) off as described in Chapter 6.
