Numbers Page
The Numbers Page provides a quick reference for the important data you want to display. The
default page will display three large, user-selectable data fields showing a compass ribbon, speed,
and current position coordinates. You may also choose to show the three data fields in large lettering
for better readability or you may ‘split’ any or all of the data fields to show 4 smaller data fields. For
detailed instructions on changing the data fields and layout of the Numbers page, see pages 22-23.
Highway Page
Whenever a Go To, TracBack or route has been activated, the GPSMAP 182/182C/232’s Highway
Page will provide digital and graphic steering guidance to the destination with the Navigation Page.
The top half of the Highway Page features user-selectable data fields that display useful navigation data.
Additionally, a compass ribbon is displayed to show your current heading along with a dark, vertical
bar which will indicate the bearing to your course. To stay on course, steer towards the dark, vertical
indicator (or arrows) until it lines up with the lighter red bar in the middle. The bottom section of
the screen provides visual guidance to the waypoint on a graphic highway display. The line down the
center of the highway represents your desired track line.
As you head toward your destination, the highway perspective moves to indicate your progress to
the waypoint and which direction you should steer to stay on course. If you are navigating a route, the
Highway Page shows each route waypoint in sequence connected by a red “road” with a yellow line
down the middle, which is your desired track line. Nearby waypoints not in the active route can also
be displayed. The highway perspective scale may also be zoomed in or out to display a larger or smaller
view of the highway. Five settings are available from 1X to 16X, with a default setting of 8X.
To change the highway perspective scale:
1. Press the IN or OUT key to select the desired setting.
The GPSMAP 182/182C/232’s Highway options page allows you to define the data fields and select
which waypoints and track are displayed on screen. The data window, located at the top of the page,
