Description of presentation modes

Head-up mode
The head-up mode is a display in which the line connecting own ship and the top of the display indicates own ship's
heading.
The target pips are painted at their measured distances and in their directions relative to own ship's heading.
The short line on the bearing scale is the north marker, which indicates heading sensor north. A failure of the
heading sensor input will cause the heading readout to disappear, and the message "No heading available" or "Gyro
error" (message in red) appears at the lower right corner of the screen.
North Marker
Heading Line
When the display is off centered
the heading line appears at 0 degree.
