Navigation Page
Main Page
The Navigation Page provides active guidance with a rotating compass ring that
shows your course over ground (track) while you’re moving and a bearing pointer to
indicate the current direction to your destination (bearing) relative to the course over
ground.
The Compass Ring does not function as a magnetic compass when you are station-
ary. Although the bearing to a point will be correct, you must be moving in order for the
compass functions to work properly. When you are moving, the heading is controlled by
the GPS receiver.
The Data Field the top of the page, by default shows you the name of your destina-
tion. All fi ve Data Fields can be programmed to display a variety of navigation data.
The list of data fi eld choices may be found on page 20 and defi nitions may be found in
Appendix F.
While you are navigating a route, the pointer indicates the direction (a bent arrow)
of the turn to the next point in the route as well as the direction to the current point
when you get within 15 seconds ETA of the current point.
When you are not on an active Goto, Track or Route (in other words: not traveling
to a recorded destination), the window at the top of the page will be blank when ‘‘Desti-
nation’ is selected. The Compass Ring displays your heading while you are moving, but
the data fi elds to the right of the page will not display any destination related data, such
as Estimated Time of Arrival.
