Main Pages > The Pointer Page The Pointer Page replaces the HSI Page when the unit is in Marine or Automotive Mode. During active navigation, the Pointer Page guides you to your destination with digital data field readouts and a graphic Pointer appears with a bearing pointer. To show the Pointer Page in Marine and Automotive Modes: While in Automotive or Marine Mode, use PAGE to show the Pointer Page. The direction of your destination (bearing) relative to the course is indicated by a bearing pointer in the middle of the Pointer ring. A bearing "bug" on the outside of the Pointer ring in Marine mode only. The Pointer ring and bearing indicators work independently to show, at a glance, the direction of your movement and the direction to your destination. If the arrow points up, you are going directly to the waypoint. If the arrow points any other direction turn toward the arrow until it points up. The Marine Mode is a Course Pointer similar to the HSI, that can be selected from the Marine Mode Options Menu. Note: You must be moving for the Pointer to accurately update and show your heading. Pointer Page (Automotive Mode) The bottom of the page features a rotating Pointer ring that shows your course over ground (track) while you are moving. The course is indicated at the top of the Pointer ring. 68 Configurable data fields at the top of the page show helpful information during active navigation. For definitions of data field settings, refer to the Appendix. The Automotive Mode features data fields with default settings that are more desirable for land navigation. 96/96C Owner's Manual
