Anyone have a quick tutorial on how to tell if my lowrance unit is set for speed over ground or otherwise? Never thought about this before

On my Lowrance FF/GPS units (I have HDS-5 Gen 2 units on two boats), I can choose which data elements to display on my screen (including which speed measurement you want). Once you have selected a data element, you can also choose the size of the numbers and where on the screen you want them to be placed. On my unit, that page is reached by choosing these options under the Menu button: Settings, Page, Data Overlay.

I think those HDS-5 Gen 2 units have more "bells and whistles" than the Elite series. Elite series are plenty capable for my needs; I would probably get more out of it if I actually read the manual, I've really only worried about figuring out how to make it do the things I want.
