The chartplotter automatically switches between showing wind VMG and waypoint VMG in the data bars.
Waypoint VMG appears under the following conditions:
• The route leg section of the navigation data bar shows waypoint VMG when you are navigating a route or
an Auto Guidance line.
• The sailing data bar shows waypoint VMG when you are navigating a route or an Auto Guidance line, and
you turn the route leg section of the navigation data bar off.
Wind VMG appears under the following conditions:
• The sailing data bar shows wind VMG when you are not navigating a route or an Auto Guidance line.
• The sailing data bar shows wind VMG when the route leg section of the navigation data bar is on and you
are navigating a route.

The compass tape data bar appears in a row across the top of a chart or a 3D chart view, above the navigation
data bar. It shows the current heading, and an indicator that shows the bearing to the desired course appears

Other Vessels
You can show and congure information about other vessels for the Navigation chart, the Fishing chart,

: To congure Automatic Identication System (AIS) information for other vessels, your chartplotter
must be connected to an external AIS device. MARPA requires the use of a heading sensor. The heading sensor
must output the NMEA 0183 sentence HDM or HDG. See “About MARPA” (page 77).
