Navigation Page, recording a trail, traveling due north. Page looks like this when
Atlas is not navigating to a waypoint , following a route, or backtracking a trail.
When navigating to a waypoint, the Navigation screen looks like the one shown
on next page. Your ground speed, track, distance and bearing to waypoint, and
course are all shown digitally on this screen. Closing speed is also known as
velocity made good. It's the speed that you're making towards the waypoint.
The current cross track error is shown in the Off Course line. This is the
distance you are off-course to the side of the desired course line. The course
line is an imaginary line drawn from your position when you started navigating
to the destination waypoint. It's shown on the steering screen as a vertical
dotted line.
Lines on either side of the present position show the current cross track error
range. The default for the cross track error range is 0.20 mile. For example, if
the present position symbol touches the right cross track error line, then you
are .20 mile to the right of the desired course. You need to steer left to return to
the desired course. You can use the
ZIN
or
ZOUT
keys to change the cross
track error range. A circular symbol depicting your destination (waypoint)
appears on the screen as you approach the waypoint as shown on the screen
below.
Travel Time is the time that it will take to reach your destination at your present
closing speed. Arrival Time is the local time that it will be when you arrive at the
destination, based upon your present closing speed and track.
