2.1.2 Compass display
The compass display, shown in combination displays, 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 the monochrome model) 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 water temperature and depth data. The range of
the depth graph is 50 feet and it is automatically adjusted with depth.
