The rotating compass indicates your current ground track at the top of the page. The course pointer and course deviation needle indicate the course and whether you are on the course. A bug indicator provides information to guide you back to the course if you stray off course. If you move off course, the Course Deviation Indicator, or needle, indicates how far off course you are, left or right, based on its placement along the course deviation scale. To get back on course and center the needle, steer toward the needle. The course deviation scale setting is adjustable for Auto, ±0.25, 1.25 or 5.0 (nautical mile, statute mile, or kilometer) full-scale deflection. The course deviation scale appears on the lower right corner of the HSI. The default setting is Auto, which uses three factors to determine the distance from the center of the CDI to full left or right limits: • When you are within 30 nm of any airport in the active route, Auto sets the CDI scale at 1.25. • When you are on an approach leg or within 2 nm of the FAF or MAP waypoints, Auto sets the scale at 0.25. • If the previous two conditions do not exist, Auto sets to 5.0. 40 GPSMAP 496 Owner's Manual

The graphic HSI depicts the course to the destination or the next
waypoint in a route, current ground track, off course error, and a
To/From indication. The rotating compass indicates your current
ground track at the top of the page.
The course pointer and course deviation needle indicate the course
and whether you are on the course. A bug indicator provides
information to guide you back to the course if you stray off course.
If you move off course, the Course Deviation Indicator, or needle,
indicates how far off course you are, left or right, based on its
placement along the course deviation scale. To get back on course
and center the needle, steer toward the needle.
The course deviation scale setting is adjustable for Auto, ±0.25, 1.25
or 5.0 (nautical mile, statute mile, or kilometer) full-scale deflection.
The course deviation scale appears on the lower right corner of
the HSI. The default setting is Auto, which uses three factors to
determine the distance from the center of the CDI to full left or right
limits:
When you are within 30 nm of any airport in the active route,
Auto sets the CDI scale at 1.25.
When you are on an approach leg or within 2 nm of the FAF or
MAP waypoints, Auto sets the scale at 0.25.
If the previous two conditions do not exist, Auto sets to 5.0.
