1.4 Display Modes
Your unit has five display modes: Plotter Display, Highway Display, Steering Display, Nav
Data Display and User Display (digital data or speedometer). Press the [DISP] key to
select a display mode. Each time the key is pressed, the display mode changes in the
sequence shown below.
Note: Position data can be shown in latitude and longitude or TDs (Loran C or Decca).

Plotter display
The plotter display traces own ship’s track, and shows position, course, speed, and hori-
zontal display range setting.
Highway display
The highway display provides a 3-D view of own ship’s progress toward destination. Nav
data is also shown.
1-4
Steering display
The steering display provides steering information such as ship’s speed, course; range,
bearing, ETA and TTG (Time-To-Go) to destination.
1-5
User displays
Two user displays are available, digital and speedometer, and the operator may select
which to display. The default display is the digital display.
Digital display
The digital display shows digital navigation data. The user may choose what data to dis-
play in the three cells below the receiver status, date and time indications. The choices of
data are speed, course, range, bearing, time-to-go, estimated time of arrival, trip distance
and power source voltage.
Speedometer display
The speedometer display provides both digital and analog speed readouts. Additionally it
provides three cells of data (below the receiver status and time indication) which the user
may choose. The choices are the same as those for the digital display.

Interval, Stopping Plotting
of Track
To trace the ship’s track, the ship’s position
is stored into the memory at an interval of
distance or automatic recording (memory
capacity: 1,000 points). For distance, a
shorter interval provides better reconstruc-
tion of the track, but the storage time of the
track is reduced. When the track memory
becomes full, the oldest track is erased to
make room for the latest.
