[Off Course Data Field]

Older generation Garmin units would show off-course (right or left). Our GPS12 and GPS72 did that. I don't think the newer Garmin units do. Our Venture HC did not.

 

Perhaps the OP's "older version" was one of those pretty early brick-types.

 

Yes, the Left and Right. I was hoping the newer models were capable of that as well.

My Garmin 600 lets me know when I am off course. On the older version it would inform me if I am Off Course to the Left or to The Right. I can not figure out how to have my new one tell me this. Can someone help me?
