| - | Maps from Locus Map running on smartphone are streamed to this screen, including any object, track or navigation instructions shown on screen on Android Locus Map. | ||

| - | The map is centered based on available location data - source can be either: | ||
| - | * Garmin GPS - position is shown by a red arrow which rotates based on the current heading | ||
| - | * GPS on phone - position is shown same way as in Android Locus Map application | ||
| - | |||
| - | Screen can optionally show DELAY info which indicates time between generating map source image and last refresh of the screen with it. Speed of map loading can vary based on used Garmin device, smartphone model, Garmin Connect version etc. Write us if you are not sure, whether it behaves correctly in your case. | ||
