ST60 Wind

[trapezeartist]

Can anyone tell me how to switch my Raymarine ST60 off VMG and back to wind speed? It seems an elementary question but I can't work it out and the handbook doesn't give an answer.

Pressing the VMG button not surprisingly switches into VMG mode. Pressing it again does nothing. Pressing the true/app button just changes the wind direction between true and apparent but leaves the digital display on VMG. I've tried long presses, short presses, double clicks, every combination of two buttons that I can think of, and switching the whole thing off and on again. Still I am stuck with VMG. I can swap it to Tack with the Tack button but then I have the same problem there.

I think you need to download the instruction manual! It's available from the Raymarine website

I think if you hit the DISP key (Left hand one) it'll revert back to Wind Speed from either VMG or Tack.

Thanks, malcp, that's the only button I haven't tried, because I assumed it was just for the backlighting.

I've just looked at the flow-chart for the "disp" button and it is sort-of implied in there. But why couldn't they just write at the end of the VMG section "Press disp to return to the wind speed display."?
