Garmin 276c Guida Utente

Five pages are available in Marine Mode—Map, Compass, 

Highway, Active Route, and Position Data. An optional Sonar 

Page is available when a GSD 20 or GSD 21 Sounder Module is 

connected.

When you turn on the GPSMAP 276C, the Map Page appears after 

the unit acquires a satellite signal. The position marker   shows 

your current location on the map.
The Map Page shows map information (digital cartography) that 

includes navaids, lakes, rivers, coastlines, cities, and highways. Use 

the dedicated zoom keys (IN and OUT) to adjust the Map Page 

scale.
Two map operating modes, position mode and pan mode, determine 

what cartography is shown on the map. Position mode pans the map 

to keep your present location in the display area. The position marker 

 shows your travel on the Map Page. The GPSMAP 276C always 

turns on in position mode, with the last known location centered on 

the map. When you press the ROCKER, the GPSMAP 276C enters 

pan mode, which moves the map to keep the white arrow   (map 

pointer) within the display area. 

The system has a built-in worldwide database, with more detailed 

coverage available through the use of the BlueChart g2 or 

MapSource data. The GPSMAP 276C shows cartography as long as 

chart information is available for the map zoom range you selected. 

In Marine Mode, by default, four user-selectable data fields appear 

on the right side of the screen that can be configured to show any 

one of the possible data options. You can also add additional data 

fields to the page or select a full screen map without data fields.
