present position using the coordinate systems that you have 
selected in Setup.  This screen shows all of the basic position, 
time and satellite information.  Additionally, current navigation 
information is shown in the bottom half of the screen.

were traveling on a road.  When a need to make a turn, the road 
will graphically display the turn and the direction.  Waypoint 
and destination icons will be displayed relative to your position 
as they come into view.  Above the road is a compass that 
displays your heading and above that are four customizable data 
fields. 
 
 

Data Screen- 

 When you need to see a lot of information in one 

place then you 'll appreciate the Data Screen.  The Data screen 
provides you with six data fields and an active compass that is 
the same as the one used on the road screen.  You have the 
option of customizing this screen by selecting what data is 
displayed in the upper six fields. 
 
 

Speedometer  Screen- 

  The speedometer screen displays your 

speed in a familiar graphical format.  There are four additional 
data fields at the top of the display that can be customized to 
display the data that you need.  The bottom of the screen 
contains a trip odometer that will record the distance traveled 
since the last time the odometer was reset. 
 
 

Satellite Status Screen-

  The Sat screen provides you with a 

graphical display of the satellite in view and which ones are 
being used to compute the navigation data.  The bar graph 
shows you the relative signal strength being received for each 
satellite.  At the bottom of the display is an indication of the 
battery life remaining.  When you are using external power, it 
will be indicated here as well.
