3.1.2 Compass display
The compass display, shown in combination displays, provides steering
information. The compass rose shows two triangles: the red triangle shows own
ship’s course and the black triangle, which moves with ship’s course, shows the
bearing to destination waypoint.
The water temperature and depth graphs, which require appropriate sensors,
show the latest 10 minutes of water temperature and depth data. The range of
the depth graph is 50 feet and it is automatically adjusted with depth.
