default, in latitude and longitude) and altitude. The
position page also displays your current track, ground
speed, time and a reference waypoint field. These
fields are user-selectable to configure the page to your
own preferences and current navigation needs.

user-selectable fields, which by default, display track,
ground speed and altitude. Minimum safe altitude
(MSA) can also be displayed on these fields. MSA is
the recommended minimum altitude within approxi-
mately ten miles of your present position. MSA is cal-
culated from the information contained in the database
and generally includes mountains, buildings and other
permanent features.
The Time and other data may not be displayed
until the unit has acquired enough satellites for a fix.
The graphic “track” indicator and the TRK
indication directly below it provide the same
information. Use the graphic “track” indicator
for quick at-a-glance ground track information.
