Position Data Page

The Position Data Page shows important navigation data while

navigating a route in Marine Mode. By default, the Position Data

Page shows a compass ribbon, your current latitude and longitude,

date and time, your location in relation to a prominent nearby

landmark such as a waypoint or city, and eight user-selectable data

fields. The compass ribbon appears at the top of the page to show

your current heading with a red, vertical bar. To stay on course, steer

toward the violet bar (or arrows) until it is aligned with the red bar.
