Magellan Meridian - Manual (Page 20)

1 2 Magellan Meridian GPS Receiver
Position Screens. The Position screens 1 and 2 display
your present position using the coordinate systems that you
have selected in Setup. This screen shows all of the basic
position, time and satellite information. Additionally,
current navigation information is shown in the bottom half
of the screen.
Road Screen. The Road screen presents your route as if
you were travelling on a road. When you need to make
a turn, the road will graphically display the turn and the
direction. Waypoint and destination icons will be
displayed relative to your position as they come into
view. Above the road is a compass that displays your
heading and above that are four customizable data fields.
Data Screen. When you need to see a lot of information
in one place then you’ll appreciate the Data screen. The
Data screen provides you with six data fields and an active
compass that is the same as the one used on the road
screen. You have the option of customizing this screen by
selecting what data is displayed in the upper six fields.
Speedometer Screen. The Speedometer screen displays
your speed in a familiar graphical format. There are
four additional data fields at the top of the display that
can be customized to display the data that you need.
The bottom of the screen contains a trip odometer that
will record the distance travelled since the last time the
odometer was reset.
Satellite Status Screen. The Sat Status screen provides
you with a graphical display of the satellites in view and
which ones are being used to compute the navigation
data. The bar graph shows you the relative signal strength
being received for each satellite. At the bottom of the
display is an indication of the battery life remaining.
When you are using external power, it will be indicated
here as well.
