Heading change in "Heading Control" mode

There are 3 ways to order a heading change (set heading):
-- Changing preselected heading value with rotary knob and "SET" button.
-- Changing preselected heading value with turned rotary knob and pressed rotary knob
("SET" function of the rotary knob).
-- Changing the ordered heading directly, by pressing and turning the rotary knob
simultaneously.
Preselected heading
Acknowledging the value with the "SET" button or only with the rotary knob has the
same result, but the procedure is different. This procedure can be used, if a heading
change is in preparation.
Direct heading
Change the heading directly if a heading change is based on a bearing.
