Compass Page
This Page has a compass rose. It shows the direction your are facing
and the direction to a selected destination. The navigation screen looks
like the one in the following image when you're not navigating to a
waypoint or other destination. No graphic course information is dis-
played. Your facing direction is shown by an arrow on the edge of the
compass rose.
You can choose how to display the Compass's orientation. The options
are "North Up," "Heading Up," and "Bearing Up."
With North Up, the unit always places North at top of the screen. As you
turn and change your facing direction (your heading), the heading indi-
cator arrow will move along the edge of the compass rose.
When using Heading Up, the unit keeps your heading indicator arrow
at the top of the screen, so no matter which way you turn, the arrow
stays up. The compass rotates under it to show which direction you're
facing.
When you're navigating to a waypoint or any other destination, you can
turn on Bearing Up, which keeps the direction to your destination at the
top of the screen while your heading indicator swings around the compass
rose. That way, all you have to do to navigate to your destination is keep
turning so that your heading indicator/arrow points closer and closer to the
top of the screen.
