Mode
This button gives access to various chart orientation in 2D or 3D, exaggeration in 3D mode and various objects linked to the own ship (COG vector, camera Field of View, etc...)
-
North Up: This mode displays the North at the top of the screen.
-
Head Up: This mode orients the bow of the vessel to the top of the screen. The chart rotates as the vessel’s bow is always pointed toward the top of the screen. In Head up mode, pay close attention to the Compass icon (on the bottom left). It provides information about the direction of North. Head Up mode is only available if a Heading sensor is connected OR if your speed is over 1Kn (GPS COG will be used in that case).
-
Course Up: This mode is only available when a "Go To" or Route has been activated and when the boat is moving over 1Kn. When this mode is selected, the chart rotates and aligns vertically with the active leg. This mode provides a "stabilized" view (not moving with the own ship heading) toward your destination (or active Waypoint).
-
Unlimited (3D only): In this mode, the azimuth and pitch can be freely adjusted by holding the middle click button and moving the mouse. If the mouse does not have a middle button, press and hold the Alt (Option) key of the keyboard while moving the cursor.
-
2D: Selects 2D mode.
-
3D: Selects 3D mode.
-
Day/Dusk/Night/Automatic: Adjusts the screen's brightness and vector chart color palette (for night or day). When set to Automatic, TimeZero will automatically switch modes according to your local sunset and sunrise time.
-
Luminosity Variation: Adjusts the brightness intensity of the Day/Dusk/Night mode.
