The vessel symbol
When a GPS and a suitable compass sensor is connected to the system, the vessel
symbol indicates vessel position and heading. Without a heading sensor fitted, the vessel
icon will orientate itself using COG (Course over Ground).
If no GPS is available the vessel symbol will include a question mark.
