Map Orientation
By default, this receiver shows the map with north always at the top of
the screen. This is the way most maps and charts are printed on paper.
Map orientation shown in north up (left) and track up (right).
This is fine if you are always traveling north. What you see to your left
and right corresponds with the left and ride sides of the map. But if you
travel any other direction, the map does not line up with your view.
To correct this problem track-up mode rotates the map as you turn. So
what you see on the left side of the screen should always be to your left
and so on.
Another option is course-up mode, which keeps the map at the same
orientation as the initial bearing to the waypoint. When either track-up
or course-up modes are on, an "N" shows on the map screen to keep you
aware of which direction is north.
To change map orientation from the Map Page, press
MENU|↓ to MAP
ORIENTATION|ENT. Use ↑ ↓ to select the desired mode, then press ENT.
Press
EXIT|EXIT to return to the page display.
In Track Up mode, map shows "N" and arrow to indicate north.
