How to read the XTE scale
The black boat-shaped mark shows own
boat’s movement and direction, and amount
to steer to return to course. Using Figure 3-

000.02 nautical miles to return to course.
When this mark is out of range of the XTE
scale, the mark color changes from black to
yellow. The range of the XTE scale can be
set as shown below (default: 0.5 nm).
