used to display all data. However, the distance units do not affect the chart scale,
which is always in nautical miles.

for heading or bearing values. The Magnetic value is derived from True by
applying the user selected value of variation.
The variation is varied in 1° steps to 30° East or West. Press trackpad right to
move the value eastward, or left to move it westward. The selected value is
retained when the unit is switched off. The Default value is zero.
