hsb/hsb2/SL Pathfinder Series chartplotter not displaying C-Map cartography inside of 6nm

The reported symptom typically results from either having configured the display's Plotter Mode feature (MENU->CHART SET-UP->PLOTTER MODE) to ON or using a chart card which does include not detailed cartography at cursor's position for the chart range selected.

The Plotter Mode feature was designed to hide the C-Map cartography and instead display a detailed lat/lon grid to support plotting waypoints via lat/lon grid lines. Under all other operational scenarios, the Plotter Mode feature should be configured to OFF.

The software within Pathfinder Series chartplotters was designed to not over-zoom cartography. Accordingly, should the chartplotter's cursor be positioned over a location for which the chart card's contents do not detailed cartography for the chart range selected, then the chartplotter's screen will partially or fully shaded grey and will be cross-hatched. If ranged further in, the chartplotter screen may additionally report "No CHART Data". In such cases, the chartplotter may be ranged out until detailed cartography is displayed once again. Additionally, customers may want to consider contacting [url= http://lightmarine.c-map.com/]C-Map Recreational Marine (800.424.2627)[/url] to determine whether another C-Map chart card may provide additional cartography detail for the location of the cursor.
