Simulating Trail or Route Navigation
In Simulator mode, your unit can automatically follow a trail or route
without manual steering if you use these steps:
1. From the Map Page, go to the simulator menu. Pick a
STARTING PO-
SITION
at or near the beginning of your trail/route. Enter an approximate
TRACK (shown in compass degrees) that will point you toward the start
of the trail/route.
2. Set
SPEED to zero. Select STEER WITH ARROWS command and press ENT,
which turns on the simulator and returns you to the Map Page.
3. Begin navigating along the trail/route. (If you are close enough to the
first waypoint, the arrival alarm will usually go off as soon as naviga-
tion begins. Press
EXIT to clear the alarm.) When navigation starts,
press ↑ to increase speed to the desired setting.
4. Press
EXIT to turn off the steering and speed boxes. The unit will now
automatically "steer" along the trail or route. When you arrive at your
"destination," cancel navigation as you normally do.
Tip:
You can pick any spot on the map to begin your simulation session
by using the Initialize GPS command. This makes your unit think
it's located at the position you select. See its entry following the en-
try for Hide GPS Features.
Hide GPS Features
The GPS menus and features can be hidden from view with the Hide
GPS Features command. The default setting is off, allowing you to ro-
tate between the Sonar Page and the GPS pages and features. To hide
GPS features:
Press
MENU|MENU|↓ to SYSTEM SETUP|ENT|↓ to HIDE GPS FEATURES|ENT.
The GPS menus and pages are now hidden. To restore GPS Features,
press
MENU|MENU|↓ to SHOW GPS FEATURES|ENT.
Initialize GPS
This command is handy when you are practicing in simulator mode. In
simulator mode, this command makes the unit operate as if it is sitting
someplace other than its actual location. You could be located in Kansas
City, but practice navigating in the ocean off Islamorada, Florida.
1. Press
MENU|MENU|↓ to GPS SETUP|ENT|ENT.
2. A message appears, telling you to move the cursor near the desired
location and press
ENT. When the message automatically clears, follow
the message instructions.
