Garmin GPSMAP 175 - Manual (Page 71)

• CDI Scale provides a list of six CDI scale settings for the map page CDI:
+/-0.10, 0.50, 1.0 (default). 5.0, 10.0 and 25.0 miles or kilometers. The
scale represents the distance from the center to either end of the scale.
• CDI Steer To allows you select a steer-to-center or steer-to-D-Bar
orientation for graphic steering guidance. The steer-to-center selection
displays your position as the vertical line on the scale, and your desired
track as the center of the scale. The steer to D-Bar option displays your
position as the center of the scale, with the desired track as the vertical line.
The default setting is steer to center.
• Map Datum provides a list of the available map datums for use with the
GPSMAP 175’s system. For a list of the available GPSMAP datums, see
Appendix F. The default setting is WGS 84.
• Velocity Filter allows you to select the GPSMAP 175’s response time to
changes in track or ground speed. Three settings are available: automatic,
on, or off. The ‘auto’ (default) setting will monitor the changes in your
current track and speed and adjust the receiver’s response time
automatically. The ‘on’ setting allows you to manually enter a response
time up to 240 seconds. Selecting a higher setting may be desirable in
slow-speed applications with frequent changes in track.
To enter a user-defined velocity filter value:
1. Highlight ‘Velocity Filter’ field and press T. Select ‘On’ option and press T.
2. Highlight the time value field.
3. Press T.
4. Enter a value in seconds (up to 240) and press T to confirm.
