(ii) Show Bathymetry, which is used to display depth contours if the data exists.
Note that a map’s depth data is stored (in a proprietary format) in the
bathymetry.xml file, although it is not required for running the Glmpc terminal.
(iii) ISO Format, which enables the cursor position (shown just under the map) to
be displayed in an ISO 6709 compliant format. This format shows
latitude/longitude as ± DDMM.MMM, ± DDDMM.MMM. For example, 4922.13,
12114.84. The alternative format shows latitude/longitude as (direction)
degrees, minutes and seconds. For example, N 41° 15’ 39”, W 70° 21’ 29”.
6.12 Audio Alarms
Glmpc Terminal provides similar audio alarms to Glider Terminal (see section 4.9),
although the events at which alarms are sounded currently only include when a glider
surfaces while Glmpc Terminal is running. Default sounds are the same as those used
by Glider Terminal, and are configured in the same way using the Terminal Preferences
Dialog and Glider Properties Dialog described in section 4.9.1.
The Terminal Preferences dialog (shown in Figure 4.12) is opened by selecting
GMC/Preferences, while the Glider Properties Dialog (shown in Figure 4.13) is opened
by selecting GMC/Properties.
