Note :

  

The magnetic variation of the area of use can be compensated by 

adjusting the compass offset. Please refer to the Advanced Operations “Compass 
offset”, page 19 for more details on the compass offset adjustement.

VMG mode

This mode provides the projected speed of the boat on the wind direction. The 
higher the value, the faster the vessel is going upwind or downwind. First, the 
wind direction must be set to display a VMG value on the data line. If no wind 
direction is set, the screen displays “---”. The VMG is displayed in knots (kts). 

To set and adjust the wind direction in VMG mode

•

Press 

 to capture the wind direction as the current heading value.

•

Adjust the wind direction value with the arrows 

Note

 :

  

Each time you press 

, the Magnetic Compass Heading is used as the 

wind direction.

Note

 :

 

The wind direction may also be calculated from the the starboard and 

port tack lines if you have already set the values in the WIN mode. (See WIN 
mode, page 11)

Note

 :

 

 

When you memorize a wind direction in VMG mode, the tack lines in 

WIN mode are updated, assuming that the boat makes the same upwind angle on 
startboard and port.
