As you move the cursor, the distance and bearing from your present position to the cursor are-

displayed in the data window, along with the cursor’s position coordinates. When you zoom in cursor
mode, the cursor is centered on the screen. When the cursor is stationary, a fi xed coordinate position
appears in the position fi eld, and the distance and bearing from your present position changes as your

several items grouped closely together, zoom IN closer for a better view.

tion displayed.
