Each data window can either be empty or contain one of the following (varies by position and by view):
9 Data Windows, 7 Adjustable, Used by Standard Bird's Eye and Chart Views
Readouts 1, 2, 3, 6 and 7
COG | Course Over Ground; Course Over Ground is the current |
| direction the boat is traveling measured in degrees from North |
| (i.e. 321°, where 000° is North, 090° East, 180° is South, 270° |
| is West). When the Course Over Ground is equal to Bearing, the |
| boat is said to be “On Course” and will arrive at the destination |
| in the most efficient manner. See the Glossary for more |
| information. |
Off | Suppresses the readout so that no data shows in that position. |
Position | Position is the current location (latitude, longitude) determined |
| by GPS. |
SOG | Speed Over Ground; Speed Over Ground is the measurement of |
| the boat’s progress across a given distance, and is the speed |
| measurement provided by GPS; accurate destination times can |
| be derived from this measurement. See the Glossary for more |
| information. |
Time | The current time. |
Time + Date | The current time and date. |
Triplog | Displays the triplog, which measures the elapsed time since last |
| reset, the distance traveled since last reset, and average speed |
