Reference Data Description Bearing This is the direction to your destination from your present position, in degrees, from North. Distance This is distance (measured in the Nav Units selected in Setup) to your destination. Speed This is the rate that you are travelling. The unit of measure is selected in Setup - Nav Units. Heading This is the direction you are moving (in degrees). When the heading and bearing are the same, you are travelling on a direct line to your destination. VMG VMG (Velocity Made Good). This is the speed that you are getting closer to your destination. If the heading and bearing are the same, then VMG will be the same as Speed since all of the speed that you are travelling is being applied to arriving to your destination. However, if you are off course, your VMG will be less than the speed that you are travelling. CTS CTS (Course To Steer). This is the angle that you need to turn to put you back on course. ETA ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival). This is the local time that you will arrive at your destination based on the rate of speed that you are moving to your destination. (See VMG.) ETE ETE (Estimated Time Enroute). This is how long, in time, that it will take you to arrive at your destination based upon your speed to the destination. XTE XTE (Cross Track Error). XTE is the perpendicular distance from your present position to the course line you should be on to go to your destination. Turn This is the direction you need to turn to put you on the shortest distance to your destination from your present position. Elevation This is the distance above sea level that you are presently at. Time Local time. Date Current date. 30 Magellan MAP 330 GPS Receiver
