The Pointer Page helps guide you to a destination.
When you're moving with no particular destination in
mind, the Pointer Page shows you your moving direction
and speed. When you're moving towards a specific
destination, the Pointer Page shows you the name of the
location, the distance, and time to go.
By pressing the UP or DOWN Buttons, you can cycle
through other trip computer information such as average
speed, maximum speed, moving direction (heading),
bearing, lat/lon, elevation, time of sunrise/sunset, trip
timer and trip odometer.
