Data Boxes

Data boxes, providing navigation data, may be shown on any full-screen display.
Up to six data boxes (two in case of large characters) may be shown, and the
default data boxes are position (in latitude and longitude), course over ground,
speed over ground, trip log and cursor position. The user may choose which
data to display, where to locate it, and show or hide it as desired. In addition,
data boxes may be set independently for each display mode (radar, plotter,
sounder). For how to select data for the data boxes, see paragraph "5.5 Data
Boxes Setup".
