The Simulator SOG/COG window lets you

steer a direct course for you, highlight the
‘Reset COG to Nav Course’ prompt and
press the ENTER key.

The distance and bearing to the ‘active to’ waypoint are displayed below the
destination field, with your present speed (SOG) and course over ground
(COG) also indicated. The SOG and COG fields can be changed to display
velocity made good (VMG) and turn (TRN). To toggle the speed and course
displays, press the ® key.
Just below the speed and course fields is the GDI (course deviation indica­
tor) scale. The CDf scale features a large arrow in the center, which always
points to your destination waypoint relative to the direction you’re moving in.
The moving vertical bar will move from side to side, indicating how far you
are off course from your desired track. Your present position and the date and
time are displayed below the CDI scale.
