Methods of navigating to a destination
If you select the Go To button on the Waypoint
Page or other Find Menu items, the GPSMAP
60Cx creates a straight path (point to point)
from your current location to that location.
If you select the
Navigate button on a Route
Page, the unit creates a route composed of
several user waypoints or Find items, with
the last being your destination. It navigates
directly from point to point. Before each turn
in the route, a page shows a guidance message
and graphic of the turn. You can view the turns
at any time by pressing up or down on the
ROCKER while the route is active.
Selecting the Follow Roads option on the
Routing Setup Page allow both Go To
navigation and point to point routing to
navigate using roads.
Routes use existing roadways to automatically
calculate a route to your destination. Turns on
roadways are added to the Active Route Page
and are preceded by a guidance message with
a graphic of the turn. If there are not enough
roads at your location to calculate a route, a
message to that effect appears.
Navigating a Route
After you create a route, you can begin navigation
immediately or save it to the Saved Routes list.
To navigate a saved route:
1. Press MENU twice to open the Main Menu.
2. Highlight the Routes icon, and press ENTER
to open the Routes Page.
3. Highlight a saved route, and press ENTER to
open the Route Page.
4. Highlight the Navigate button, and press
ENTER.
5. To stop navigating, press MENU, select Stop
Navigation, and press ENTER.
Using the Follow Roads option on the Routing Setup
Page increases the number of turns and shows an
Active Route Page with a list of turns. If you selected
the Off Road option, you can view only the list of
points for a route from the Active Route Page. See
Routing Setup on page 60.
