Map Orientation: Sets the perspective of the map.
Look Ahead: Shifts your present location toward the bottom of the screen automatically as your speed

Vessel Orientation: Sets the alignment of the vessel icon on the map. The Auto option aligns the vessel icon
using GPS COG at high speeds and the magnetic heading at low speeds to better align the vessel icon with
the active track line. The Heading option aligns the vessel icon with the magnetic heading. The GPS Heading
(COG) option aligns the vessel icon using GPS COG. If the selected data source is not available, the available
data source is used instead.
The vessel orientation setting is for informational purposes and is not intended to be precisely followed. Always
defer to the navaids and conditions on the water to avoid groundings or hazards that could result in vessel
damage, personal injury, or death.

used in a combination page.
