Quick Start guide for the Maxi And Dual Maxi Display
Acceleration and Trends
The Speed, SOG, VMG-WIND and VMG-WPT pages can be configured to show
Trend or Acceleration indicators.
Trends and Acceleration are not available on the Dual Maxi.
Arrows to the right indicate increasing speed, arrows to the left indicate decreasing
speed. The number of arrows indicates the magnitude of the change; more arrows
means a greater acceleration or a faster trend.
The sensitivity of the trend and acceleration indication can be configured in setup,
see the full user guide.
Acceleration mode
The arrows indicate whether the boat is accelerating or decelerating;
they are not shown when the speed is stable
Trend mode
The arrows show whether the overall speed trend is upwards or
downwards from a reference speed. By default, the reference speed is
calculated as a rolling average of the actual speed. Pressing
the reference speed equal to the current boat speed (or SOG, VMG as
appropriate); the new reference speed will briefly be shown flashing and
may be edited using
Sailing in Tidal Waters
In tidal conditions, your boat's Course Over the Ground (COG) and Speed Over the
Ground (SOG) may differ considerably from the heading of the boat and the speed
through the water shown by the speed sensor.
The Maxi Display provides the following functions to make your tidal navigation
easier.
Turn
It is often difficult to assess the course to steer to keep on the direct
track to a waypoint. Your Maxi Display automatically indicates when the
course you are steering is taking you off the direct track to your
waypoint. The direction and required angle of turn is displayed.
