Reference Also, you must be zoomed in to a scale of 0.80 miles or closer for the horizontal profile to be displayed. Zoom scales higher then 0.80 miles will cause the data displayed to change to the Two Data Fields and will change back to Horizontal Profile as you zoom in to 0.80 miles and below. Terrain Projection Description - This feature allows you to view the terrain directly ahead of you graphically. It is computed from your present position and extends in a straight line to the top of your display. This provides you with instantaneous information on what terrain elevations are directly in front of you. Your present position and elevation are indicated at the left side of the display. The maximum elevation for the terrain ahead of you is displayed above the graph, next to the map scale indicator. (This function requires that map data has been uploaded from Magellan MapSend Topo for the United States and that your present position as well as the projected horizon falls within the area uploaded.) Like Horizontal Profile, you must be zoomed in to a scale of 0.80 miles or closer for the projected terrain to be displayed. Zoom scales higher then 0.80 miles will cause the data displayed to change to the Two Data Fields and will change back to Terrain Projection as you zoom in to 0.80 miles and below. You should note that when you select Terrain Projection your Map Orientation will change to "Track Up" so you may need to change that when you are done viewing the projected terrain. If you change Orientation to something other then Track Up while viewing the Terrain Projection, the default Two Data Fields is displayed. Changing the Orientation back to "Track Up" will revert back to the projected terrain. Magellan Meridian GPS Receiver 31
