Garmin GPSMAP 295 - Manual (Page 41)

Main Pages
31
The RMI Page appears only when the GPSMAP 295 is in Land Mode (see page 6). The graphic RMI
indicates bearing to the destination waypoint (or the next waypoint in a route) using a ‘bearing pointer’.
The rotating compass card indicates your current ground track at the top of the page.
As you reach your destination, the bearing pointer will swing from top to bottom to indicate
waypoint passage. By default, eight user-selectable data fields appear along the right-hand side of the
page showing: distance and time to next waypoint, name of next waypoint, current ground speed and
track, desired course, cross track error and vertical speed to target (a vertical navigation function,
described on page 79). Each data field may be configured to display any one of twenty-one data
options, or you can replace some data fields with a smaller map display, using the RMI Page Options.
RMI Page Options
Much like the HSI Page, the RMI Page has an options menu, allowing you to custom tailor the RMI
Page to your preferences and/or select special features which specifically relate to the RMI Page. The
RMI Page Options are a subset of the HSI Page Options described on pages 27 through 30.
To display the RMI Page Options, press MENU (with the RMI Page displayed).
The following options are available:
• Change Fields • Show Map • 2 Big-Number Fields
• 2 Fields with Map • 8 Fields • Restore Default
RMI Page (Land Mode)
RMI Page Options are displayed by pressing MENU with
the RMI Page displayed. The RMI Page Options are a subset
of the options provided for the HSI Page (as previously
described).
The RMI Page is displayed by selecting ‘Enter Land Mode’
from the Satellite Status Page Options. The RMI is
particularly useful in an automobile, where it is often not
possible to follow a straight-line course to your destination.
