•
Compass
-indicates your current direction.
•
Range Rings
(Fig.
5
)
-visual tool that represents distance on your map or
photo within a circle. The distance shown is the radius of the circle. This
radius is half the zoom level. Use Up/Down on the 5-way pad to adjust the
radius of the rings, then press OK to exit.
•
Photos
(Aerial/Satellite)
(Fig.
6
)
-superimposed over Base Map if desired.
You do not need to manually select the right photo (or topo map) to use,
as these downloaded files are “geo referenced”, enabling your ONIX to
choose the correct photo automatically, based on your current location and
zoom level. Note that while both types of images can be stored at the
same time on your ONIX, only one of them (photo or topo map) can be
displayed over the base map at a time.
•
Topo
-the topographic map you choose from files you download and store
in the ONIX will be layered over the base map
•
North UP
-when checked, the top of the screen is oriented due north. If
unchecked, the top of the screen is oriented to your current direction of
travel (i.e.“track up”-like automotive GPS units). Satellite photos and topo
maps are displayed “North Up” by default.
•
Map Data
-turns on/off display of roads and places on the base map
•
Bread Crumbs
-a dotted line on the display showing the simple path
you’ve traveled. Breadcrumbs are automatically stored, but only displayed
if this option is selected.
•
Points of Interest
-major or common facilities from a pre-programmed
list (airports, hospitals, etc)
