The Three large digits on the display show the 

current heading in degrees. (See Figure 10)

If  the  autopilot  is  in  calibration  mode, 

(Autotune, Compass Calibration, or rudder 

calibration)  the  three  digits  will  display  

“CAL”.

The  Three  smaller  digits  display  a 

horizontal  bar  (See  Figure  12)  if  the 

heading command mode is available. 

It will display the new commanded heading
