Compass Page

The GPSMAP 2206/2210 features two different navigation pages: Compass and

Highway. Whenever you are following a route or TrackBack, the Compass Page

guides you to your destination with digital readouts and a compass display, which

includes a Bearing Pointer.

Bearing pointer

For the compass to work, the GPS must be moving. When you are moving,

the orange Bearing Pointer points toward your destination, while the Compass

Ring reflects the direction you are traveling by a red vertical line at the top

of the Compass Ring. When you are headed directly toward your destination,

the Bearing Pointer points toward the top of the screen, aligned with the red

vertical line at the top of the Compass Ring. If you are not heading toward

your destination, the Bearing Pointer turns, continuing to point toward your

destination. To head toward your destination, turn until the Bearing Pointer is

aligned with the red vertical line in the Compass Ring.
Along the right side of the screen are the default data fields; the top field is speed.

Also shown are the distance to your waypoint (DIST NEXT) and estimated time

en route (ETE NEXT). The distance and en route time decrease as you near your

destination.
The Bearing Pointer or Compass Ring may point in various directions when

you are stationary or at very low speeds. When you start moving, the pointer is

correct.
You can customize the Compass Page to show other functions and different sizes

or types of Digital Data fields.
