Using the Course Pointer or Bearing

Pointer

The bearing pointer and course pointer are

independent of each other. The bearing pointer

indicates the direction to your destination, and the

course pointer indicates your relationship to a course

line leading to the destination.
If the bearing pointer arrow is pointing straight

up, for example, you are going directly to your

destination. If it points any direction other than up,

turn toward that direction until the arrow is pointing

up and then continue in that direction. The bearing

pointer points to the destination.

The Bearng Ponter always ndcates the drecton

to your destnaton from your current locaton.

If you are using the course pointer option, and you

drift away from the line of travel from your original

location to your destination, the course deviation

indicator (an arrow with horizontal dotted line)

provides graphic indication of drift (right or left)

according to the scale shown on the compass ring.

Move to the right or left to get back on course.

The Course Ponter ndcates your course of travel from

your orgnal locaton and the dstance off course.
