'L' means turn Left, 'R' means turn Right. • Vmg-(Velocity Made Good) the speed you are closing in on a destination along a desired course. Also referred to as the 'vector velocity' to your destination. • Vt Spd Dest-(Vertical Speed Destination) the speed at which you are descending to your destination altitude

Data Field Options
Elevation
—the measurement of height above mean sea level.
Glide Ratio
—the ratio of horizontal distance travelled to vertical distance travelled.
For example, a 6:1 glide ratio indicates a 1000’ vertical descent for every 6000’
horizontal distance travelled
Heading
—the direction you are traveling.
Lat/Lon
—(Latitude/Longitude) the current GPS position.
Location
—shows your current latitude and longitude.
Max Speed
—the maximum speed traveled since last reset.
Moving Avg
—(Moving
Average) the average speed while the unit is moving.
Odometer
—a running tally of distance traveled, based upon the distance between
second-by-second position readings.
Over’l Spd
—(Overall
Speed) the averaged speed since your last reset, including
stopped and moving time.
Speed
—shows how fast you are going.
Sunrise
—the time at which the sun rises on this day at the specified location.
Sunset
—the time at which the sun sets on this day at the specified location.
Time of Day
—the current time for the selected time zone.
Time-Moving
—the time elapsed while the unit is moving since the last trip reset.
Time-Stop
—the time elapsed while the unit is not moving since the last trip reset.
Time-Total
—the total time you have traveled since the last trip reset.
Trip
Odom
—(Trip Odometer) the total distance you’ve gone since the last reset.
Vert Speed
—(Vertical
Speed) the rate of altitude gain/loss over time.
The following fields display figures only when navigating:
Bearing
—the compass direction from your location to your destination.
Course
—the direction from your starting location to a destination.
Final Dest
—(Final
Destination) the last waypoint on your route.
Final Distance
—the distance from your current location to your destination.
Final ETA
—the estimated time you will arrive at your destination.
Final ETE

Turn
—the angle difference (in degrees) from the bearing to your destination and your
current line of travel. ‘L’ means turn Left, ‘R’ means turn Right.
Vmg
