From the Chart List:

When a Region is selected from the iNavX main menu a Chart List is presented. Charts may be selected three ways:

1) "Magnifying Glass". Lists all charts or enter a chart number or name. Sorted by chart number or alphabetically.

2) "Pos" From the device position. Lists all charts that intersect with the device position. Sorted by chart scale.

3) "Recents". Charts which have been recently opened. Sorted by last chart opened.


From a Chart (Raster Only):

When a chart is selected from the Chart List, it is displayed. Switching to a different raster chart can be done four ways:

1) Return to the Chart List by selecting the back button in the upper left hand corner.

2) Selecting the "+" or "-" button. These buttons when selected will present a menu of available charts that intersect the center of the screen. The "+" button menu will list charts that are larger in scale (i.e. more detail). The "-" button menu will list charts that are smaller in scale (i.e. less detail).

3) Tapping on the chart to display context menu. The largest scale chart (most detail) that intersects with where tapped will be listed in the menu. The bounds of the larger scale charts are plotted in red on the chart when "Show Boundaries" is "ON" in the "Setup".

4) Automatically. The largest scale chart will automatically display when "Pos. Icon Kept Visible" and "ON" in the "Setup" AND the device position is on the displayed chart. As the device position changes, the chart(s) will automatically open.
