While you are moving it will point in the direction you are heading. If the Meridian is not computing positions, this icon is replaced with an hourglass icon. Map Scale Indicator Provides the scale for the map. The number displayed represents approximately 1/4 of the screen's width. Scale can be changed with the IN and OUT buttons. Track History Dotted line on the map displays the history of where you have travelled since the last time you cleared the Track History (see Clear Memory in the Reference Chapter.) Data Fields These fields display navigational information for viewing on the Map screen. They are both customizable with 13 data types possible. Both of the data fields can be turned on or off allowing more viewable map area. Both features (customize and turning the data on/off) can be accessed from the MENU button.
