• Automatic extended - compensates for wind and current effects;
• Taking into account the influence of the wind - supporting a certain course against the true or apparent wind, with compensating for wind and current actions (exclusively for sailboats);
• Navigation mode - keeps course on a given waypoint with compensation of the effect of wind and current;
• Follow the route - maintains a course on a combination of waypoints. The attainment of any point, including the final one, is marked by an audible and a light signal.
