Charts
The chart function displays your vessel’s position relative to land and other chart objects.
On the panel you can plan and navigate routes, place waypoints, overlay a radar image or
weather information, and display AIS targets.
The Zeus Touch has different embedded cartography depending on region. Units sold

embedded Navionics coastal (Silver) cartography split by region. All units will support
Navionics Platinum Plus and TurboView via Micro-SD Card slot accessible from the front of the
unit.
Charts are shared over the network, so only one chart card per boat is required.
The first part of this section describes how to use the charts, and is common to both Insight
and Navionics. Chart options depend on which cartography is in use on the unit. These are
covered in a separate section.
