3.1.2 Compass display
The compass display, displayed at the bottom half of the screen in the
combination display, provides steering information. The compass rose shows
two triangles: the black triangle (hollow on monochrome model) shows the
bearing to destination waypoint and the red (solid on monochrome) triangle,
which moves with ship’s course, shows own ship’s course.
The water temperature and depth graphs, which require appropriate sensors,
show the latest 10 minutes of temperature and depth data. The range of the
depth graph is 50 feet and it is automatically adjusted with depth.
