Big Digits on this view provide digital data in a large, easy-to-see format. When you press the 4-WAY Cursor key in the Bird's Eye View, the position of the eye point will shift. This allows you to move and turn the eye point so that you can look off to the sides, or even behind the boat. Pressing the RIGHT or LEFT arrow keys on the 4-WAY Cursor key turns the eye point right or left, while pressing the UP arrow key moves the eye point forward, and pressing the DOWN arrow key moves the eye point backward. Pressing the EXIT key moves the eye point back to its original position behind and above the boat. Bird's Eye View 1 Chart/Bird's Eye Combo View shows both the Chart and Bird's Eye views in a combination split screen. You can perform any of the functions for either of these views, but only when the view you want to control is selected as the active side (see Sonar X-PressTM Menu: Active Side or Navigation X-PressTM Menu: Active Side for more information). You can also adjust the size of the left side of a split screen (see Sonar X-PressTM Menu: Split Position or Navigation X-PressTM Menu: Split Position for more information).

Chart/Side Combo View 1 5 2 6 10 3 7 8 10 9 All the chart views allow you to choose the orientation of the chart. When North-Up orientation is selected, True North is shown at the top of the display. In other words, objects located to the north of the boat are drawn above the boat. When Course-Up orientation is selected, the direction of motion of the boat is shown at the top of the display. In both orientations, the view pans automatically, so that the boat is always centered on the display. When the boat is in motion, it takes on a boat shape, pointed in the direction of motion (always Up in the CourseUp orientation). See Navigation Menu Tab: Chart Orientation for more information. VIEWING CARTOGRAPHY (987c SI Combo models only) In the Chart or Combo Views, there are several cartography-related functions that you can access using various keys. Panning: Use the 4-WAY Cursor keys to move the chart around on the display in the direction of the key being pressed.
