Compass Page
During active navigation, the Compass Page guides you to your
destination with data fields and a graphic compass screen with a
bearing pointer.

Data fields
The middle of the page features a rotating compass ring that shows
your course over ground (track) while you are moving. Your present
course over ground is indicated at the top of the compass ring. The
direction of the destination (bearing) relative to the course over
ground is indicated by an arrow in the middle of the compass ring
and a course to steer “bug” on the outside of the compass ring.
The compass ring and bearing indicators work independently to
show the direction of your movement and the direction to your
destination. If the arrow points up, you are going directly to the
waypoint. If the arrow points any direction other than up, turn
toward the arrow until it points up, then continue in that direction.
NOTE:
You must be moving for the compass to accurately
update and show your heading.
The right side of the Compass Pages features user-selectable data
fields that show additional information during active navigation.
For definitions of data field settings, refer to
