Data Bars
Data bars can appear on specific charts and 3D chart views, and they provide real-time, at-a-glance
information. A data bar configured to appear on one chart or one 3D chart view does not appear on
another chart or on another 3D chart view. The data bars for each chart or each 3D chart view must
be configured separately.
The cruising, navigation, fishing, fuel, sailing, and compass tape data bars are available on all charts
and 3D chart views.
Note
: The Fishing chart, Mariner’s Eye 3D, and Fish Eye 3D are available with a preprogrammed
BlueChart g2 Vision data card.
