North-Up
The chart is oriented with North up on the display, and the boat rotates according to
its heading or COG (Course Over Ground).
Head-Up
(compass or GPS required)
The boat’s current heading points up, and the chart rotates around the boat icon so
that it always points up on the view. The heading is provided by the connected
compass/heading sensor. If a compass is not connected, the boat will be oriented
according to COG (Course Over Ground).
Course-up
During navigation, the intended course or route leg is shown at the top of the view.
Objects ahead of the boat are drawn above the boat. When the boat is not navigating,
the current heading is displayed.
