• The chart is redrawn so that its center position matches that of the radar dis-
play.
• The radar is redrawn to the scale and heading mode of the chart.
Note: Depending on the topology of the coastline, the radar returns may not
relate to the charted shoreline, the radar image will therefore be different to
the chart display. For example, a gently sloping beach with a cliff several hun-
dred metres beyond the charted coastline, the cliff is not shown on the chart
but will be displayed on the radar image.
Changing the Chart Scale
The
RANGE
key allows you to change the chart scale so that you can see a
smaller or larger area on the screen.
Plotter mode is available to allow you to zoom into a smaller area, even when
no chart data is available for that scale.
Section 7.7 describes how to set plotter
mode on/off.
You can change the chart scale for two purposes:
• To see either more detail (of a smaller area) or a larger area (in less detail)
on the screen.
• To move the display to another area of the chart, by zooming out to a small
scale chart, then zooming in on another position centered on the cursor.
The cartographic detail available on charts varies according to the chart scale
and some areas include detail at smaller scales than others. This can cause
blank areas on the display when adjacent areas with different levels of detail
are displayed. To reduce this affect you can use the Chart Set Up options (see
Section 7.7 ) to set chart display detail to simple. Then, as you zoom in, charted
areas are displayed but with less detail shown.
Each time you press the
RANGE
key, the chart scale changes to the next
available setting. The status bar indicates the distance from top to bottom of
the screen, in nautical miles.
