B&G H1000 Compass - Manual (Page 9)

tactical compass function
When a compass and a wind sensor are connected to the system, the Tactical
Compass function becomes available as a full page display option.
After a tack or gybe, and the yacht is sailing a steady course, press the ENTER
key to store the displayed heading. Note, to access the Main Menu from the
Tactical Compass page, press and hold the ENTER key for two seconds.
Any deviation from the stored course is shown on the screen as a
lift or head with
the corresponding number of degrees. Lift is always shown on the windward side
of the display and head on the leeward.
storing a course
When the ENTER key is pressed whilst the Tactical Compass page is displayed,
the present heading is automatically stored and the head / lift trend function
reset. When this is done, the display overlays the Heading with Course stored for
two seconds, as shown in the diagram, and the
head or lift legends disappear.
As soon as heading deviates from the new stored value, head or lift will be
displayed with the number of degrees as appropriate. Resetting the stored
course also updates the Course memory found under the Memories
→ Compass
menu.
last tack information
When a tack occurs, the head / lift field in the bottom left or right of the display is
replaced with the last heading for that tack, providing it was previously stored by
pressing the ENTER key.
Last tack heading remains on screen until the ENTER key is pressed. When
ENTER is pressed, Last Tack information disappears, Course Stored is then
shown for two seconds, and then the appropriate
head or lift information is
shown.
