Graphic displays

There are two types of graphic displays and
you can select which one to display on the
SYSTEM MENU1.

Graphic display 1

This display provides analog and digital dis-
plays of cross-track error (XTE), course and
bearing. It is useful for monitoring progress
toward a waypoint. The XTE scale in the cen-
ter of the display, graduated in increments of
0.1 nm, shows cross-track error, the direction
and distance the boat is off course. In the ex-
ample below the XTE marker (red) shows the
boat is off course by 0.2 nm starboard. There-
fore you would steer left by the same distance
to return to course.
