Possible Map Information Options

Two Data Fields

This option displays two fields at the bottom
of the display. These fields are customizable
and can be set to any of 13 different data
options.

Street Info

This option displays an information block at
the bottom of the display showing the name
of the street your present position or cursor
is on. If in the cursor mode, the bearing and
distance from your present position is
displayed.

Horizontal Profile

(Available only with MapSend Topographic data
loaded into the Meridian.) This displays an
information box which graphically depicts the
horizon in front of you. The displayed horizion is
at the mark displayed on the display perpendicular
to your track. Selecting this option automatically
sets the display orientation to track up and works only in
the Position Mode. Changing to the Cursor Mode will
replace the horizontal profile with the cursor data.

Terrain Projection

loaded into the Meridian.) This displays an
information box which graphically depicts the
terrain in front of you. The displayed terrain is
approximately from your present position to the
edge of the display. Selecting this option

up and works only in the Position Mode. Changing to the Cursor
Mode will replace the horizontal profile with the cursor data.
