6.15 How to Enter Heading
Heading can also be entered in the chart for radar mode. Settings are mutually
changed between the radar and chart for radar modes.
Note: When the vessel is in high latitudes (over 85°), data from the gyrocompass is
not used. The internal filter data is used for heading calculation. In this case, the head-
ing source in the sensor information box appears as "FILT". However, high altitudes
are not supported in RADAR mode.
Heading can be entered manually or automatically.

tion box to show the context-sensitive menu.
