• Heading— lets you select the reference used in calculating heading information. You can select from
‘Auto Mag Var’, ‘True’, ‘Grid’ and ‘User Mag Var’. ‘Auto Mag Var’ provides magnetic north heading
references which are automatically determined from your current position. ‘True’ provides headings
based upon a true north reference. ‘Grid’ provides headings based on a grid north reference (and
is used in conjunction with the grid position formats described on page 63). ‘User Mag Var’ allows
you to specify the magnetic variation at your current position and provides magnetic north heading
references based upon the variation you enter.
