The compass ring is an electronic compass that

functions like a magnetic compass when you are

stationary. When you are moving and reach a pre-set

speed, it uses data from the GPS receiver to maintain

your heading. When you stop (after a pre-set time), it

again operates like a magnetic compass. The compass

ring is especially helpful when using a paper map or

chart with your Vista Cx for navigation. When the

electronic compass is on, a compass icon appears

in the status bar.

Using the Electronic Compass

When you press and hold the

Quit

key the electronic

compass turns off, it stays off until you press and hold

the

Quit

key to turn it on again. However, sometimes

when you turn the electronic compass on, the Vista

Cx overrides the compass and uses the GPS receiver

to track your heading. It also uses the GPS receiver

when you are moving, but only when you are moving.

When stationary or moving slowly you must use the

electronic compass for headings. You can customize

the criteria for switching between the electronic

compass and the GPS as explained on page 50.

To turn the electronic compass on or off:

1. Press and hold the

Quit

key to turn the

electronic compass on or off. The Compass

Icon

appears in the status bar when the

electronic compass is on. When you are not

using the electronic compass, turn it off to

conserve batteries. When it is turned off, the

unit uses the GPS receiver for navigation.

2. Hold the Vista Cx level to get an accurate

electronic compass reading. A “Hold Level”

message appears if you are not holding

the electronic compass correctly, or if it is

not calibrated. (See the following page for

calibration instructions.)

Setting the speed and time for Compass

Auto On and Off:

1. Press the

Menu

key twice to open the Main

Menu.

2. Highlight

Setup

, and press

Enter

to open the

Setup Menu.

3. Highlight the Heading icon, and press

Enter

open the Heading Setup Page.

4. Highlight the

Switch to compass heading

when below

ﬁeld, and press

Enter.
