GPSMAP 180 Navigation Page

Whenever a GOTO, MOB, TracBack or route has been activated, the GPSMAP

180 will provide digital and graphic steering guidance to the destination with the

Navigation Page. The top half of the nav page features four user-selectable data

fields that display the bearing (BRG) and distance (DIS) to waypoint, along with

your current course (COG) and speed over ground (SOG). In addition, there’s a

moving compass tape to indicate the direction you’re heading. Two additional

data fields at the bottom of the page show the estimated time enroute (ETE) and

velocity made good (VMG) to your destination.

The middle 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, while a graphic indication of the distance and direction you are off

course is shown on a scale at the bottom right of the page (the selected scale rep-

resents the distance from side to side). The arrow pointer below the highway

always points to the destination waypoint relative to the direction you are moving.

The Navigation Page can be configured to show

the active waypoint, all route waypoints and/or

nearby waypoints on the graphic highway.
