An on-screen cursor lets you pan and scroll to other map areas, determine the distance and
bearing to a position, and perform various route and waypoint functions.
Two basic map operating modes, position mode and cursor mode, determine what is shown on the
map display.
Position mode pans the map to keep the present position marker (triangle) within the
