The options include:
Stop Navigation - “Grayed out” unless you are
navigating on a Goto, Track, or Route.
Bearing Pointer/ Course Pointer - Toggles between
Bearing (always directed at destination) and Course
(distinctive with dots across center of compass, shows
amount of correction needed to be back on course.)
Big Numbers/ Big Compass - toggles to display data
elds in large text format while removing the Status
Window and reducing the size of the compass ring.
Restore Defaults - Returns options and data fi eld
choices to factory designations.
At the bottom of the page are two data fi elds that
are user programmable with a choice of different data
options:
The Bearing Pointer and Compass Ring work inde-
pendently of the direction of your movement and the
direction to your destination. The Bearing Pointer always
points directly to the destination, no matter what your
current location might be.
For example: if the arrow is pointing straight up,
you are going directly to your destination. If it points any
direction other than up, turn towards that direction until
the arrow is pointing up and then continue in that direc-
tion. If you are using the ‘Course Pointer’ option instead
and you drift away from the line of travel to your destina-
tion, the Course Deviation Indicator (CDI) provides
graphic indication of drift (right or left) and displays the
distance off course.
