Compass Page
Whenever a NAV/MOB, Follow Track (TracBack) or Follow Route has been activated, the GPS
152’s Compass Page will guide you to your destination with digital readouts and a graphic compass
display, which includes a bearing pointer. Use this page (instead of the Highway Page) when travelling
at slower speeds, when making frequent directional changes, or where straight-line navigation is not
possible due to obstructions or terrain.
The middle of the page features a rotating ‘compass ring’ that shows your course over ground
(track) while you’re moving. Your present course over ground is indicated at the top of the compass
ring. A bearing pointer, in the middle of the compass ring, indicates the direction of the destination
(bearing) relative to the course over ground. The compass ring and pointer arrow work independently
to show—at a glance—the direction of your movement and the direction to your destination. For
instance, if the arrow points up, you are going directly to the waypoint. If the arrow points any
direction other than up, turn toward the arrow until it points up, then continue in that direction.
