Title: Changing map on screen
Post by: dpirila on June 02, 2010, 05:46:39 PM

Hey is it possible to have the boat icon remain in the center facing up, like the front of the boat, and the map to move as you turn?  Then right is right and you can't lose track of it being upside down or pointing left and have to constantly be figuring out which direction is correct. 

If it can't do this right now, it would be a great enhancement to add.  Much safer for driving in fog, in a channel, etc.   

Thanks

The intruction are in your manual.

Change the "Chart Orientation" from (North-Up) to (Course-Up).

It's in the Navigation menu.

Check around the forum as I cant lay my hands on the post right now.  Some maps only run in north up selection so if you change to course up and have map problems then go back to north up.

I know this is a pain for now but maybe the mappers or Hb will fix this problem.

If you are not running any sd map cards  then course up will be fine.
