Overlay Data

On any Page display except Satellite Status, you can overlay additional

GPS or navigation data on the screen with the Overlay Data command.

For example, if you left your watch at home, you could display the local

time on top of the map. Or, if you wanted to see details about your

route and trip, you could show your bearing, course, average speed and

trip distance.
The various data available from your unit are divided into categories in

the Overlay Data menu. These categories include GPS Data, Naviga-

tion, Trip Calculator, Time and Miscellaneous Data.
You can select items from any of these categories for display, in any

combination — the category divisions are there only to help you sort

through the information.
