The GPSMAP 168 Sounder features two different navigation pages: Compass and Highway. When-
ever a NAV/MOB, Follow Track (TracBack) or Follow Route have been activated, the GPSMAP 168
Sounder’s Compass Page will guide you to your destination with digital readouts and a graphic compass
display, which includes a bearing pointer. Use this page (instead of the Highway Page) when travelling
at slower speeds, when making frequent directional changes, or where straight-line navigation is not
possible due to obstructions or terrain. The middle of the page features a rotating ‘compass ring’
that shows your course over ground (track) while you’re moving. Your present course over ground
is indicated at the top of the compass ring. A bearing pointer, in the middle of the compass ring,
indicates the direction of the destination (bearing) relative to the course over ground. The compass
ring and pointer arrow work independently to show—at a glance—the direction of your movement
and the direction to your destination. For instance, if the arrow points up, you are going directly to
the waypoint. If the arrow points any direction other than up, turn toward the arrow until it points
up, then continue in that direction.
The GPSMAP 168 Sounder’s Compass Page features a menu page that provides access to layout and
data fi eld options. The data window, located at the top of the page, provides a user-selectable layout
of various types of useful data. Each data fi eld may be confi gured to display any one of 27 data
options. The data window layout may also be changed to display additional data fi elds and change
the actual size of the data displayed.
To display the Compass Page options:
1. Press MENU.
To select a menu option:
1. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the desired option and press ENTER/MARK. For detailed
instructions on changing the data fi elds and layout of the Compass Page, see pages 35-37.
