The ‘OPT’ field gives
access to the map setup,
and track setup pages,
right from the Map Page.
The Map Page’s default
screen orientation is ‘track
up’. ‘Track Up’ means that
the top of the map display
corresponds to your cur-
rent direction of travel.
With this setting, the map
rotates as your track
changes. It can also be set
for north up or desired
track (dtk) up orientation.
