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 is a moving compass tape to indicate the direction youre 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 represents 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 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 1/4 to 4 nm, with a default setting of 1/4 nm. To change the highway perspective scale: 1. [. . . ] Course Over Ground (COG)Direction of movement relative to a ground position. Crosstrack Error (XTK)The distance you are off a desired course in either direction. Desired Track (DTK)The compass course between the from and to waypoints. Differential GPS (DGPS)An extension of the GPS system that uses land-based radio beacons to transmit position corrections to GPS receivers. [. . . ]
