    Navigation and sailing dials

    Dials are available for the Navigation and Sailing pages, which provide a compass dial displaying various data indicators.

    Note

    The navigation and sailing dials are only available when the display’s Activity type is set to Sailing, when completing the startup wizard.

    The Activity type is specified during the initial startup wizard. If you want to change the Activity type after that initial selection, you must first perform a factory reset for the display and complete the startup wizard once again. For more information, refer to: Changing activity type
