HDG screens
There are two heading (HDG1 and HDG2) screens. The HDG1 screen displays the analog
compass rose with the digital heading readout in the center, while the HDG2 screen displays
the digital HDG, ROT, Pitch, ROLL and YAW information. The HDG data is only valid if a GPS
compass antenna or an alternative source of heading is available via the N2K network. You
can toggle between the HDG1 and HDG2 screens by pressing the HDG hot key once or twice.
