3.5.1.2 Palette
'MENU' + "MAP SETTINGS" +'ENTER' + "Palette" + 'ENTER'
It is possible to set the palette used to enhance the visibility of the screen depending
on the surrounding light condition. The possible choices are Normal, Classic, NOAA,
Night and Sunlight. Normal is recommended when the chart plotter is not exposed to the
direct sunlight. When this mode is set the maps are displayed in order to use colors as
similar as possible to the ones used in the original paper charts. Classic uses more vivid
colors (it is the default setting). Night is recommended when the environment is dark in
order to reduce the glare of the display. The chart plotter displays maps and screen in darker
colors. Sunlight is designed to enhance the visibility of the screen when the chart plotter is
exposed to the sunlight. The maps are much brighter than in the other modes and the depth
areas are filled with white color so different depth areas are not easily distinguishable. NOAA
allows setting NOAA paper chart colors presentation.
3.5.1.3 Map Orientation
'MENU' + "MAP SETTINGS" +'ENTER' + "Map Orientation" + 'ENTER'
Selects the orientation of your chart according to: North (the map is shown with

It is possible to select the resolution angle for the Map Orientation.

'MENU' + "MAP SETTINGS" +'ENTER' + " Zoom Type" + 'ENTER'

push (press and hold) causes a pop-up window to be displayed on a corner of the screen.
