Garmin GPSMAP 130 - Manual (Page 30)

Position Page
The GPSMAP 130 position page shows you where you are, what direction you
are heading and how fast you are going. The top of the page features a graphic
compass tape to indicate the direction you’re heading (while you’re moving), and
four user selectable data fields: course over ground (COG), speed over ground
(SOG), distance travelled (TRP) and altitude (ALT). The bottom half of the page
displays your present position’s coordinates, along with the time of day as calcu-
lated using GPS satellites. The status bar at the bottom of the page indicates posi-
tion fix status, and is described in detail on page 18.
The units of measure for speed, distance, position and altitude are all user-
selectable through the navigation setup option on the main menu page. The time
of day, shown in UTC (Universal Time Coordinated, or Greenwich Mean Time)
may be set to display in a 12- or 24-hour time format (with a local offset) through
the system setup option on the main menu page.
