‘ North Reference’ — Let’s you select the reference used in calculating
heading information. You can select from, ‘Auto’ ‘True’, ‘Magnetic’, ‘Grid’ or
‘User’. ‘Auto’ provides magnetic north heading references which are automati-
cally determined from your current location. ‘True’ provides headings based
upon a true north reference. ‘Grid’ provides headings based on a grid north
reference (used in conjunction with the grid location formats described on
page 56). ‘User’ allows you to specify the magnetic variation at your current
location, and provides magnetic north heading references based on the value
you entered.
