When zoomed in to smaller map areas, ‘overzoom’ appears directly below the map scale. This indicates
the current scale exceeds the optimum resolution of available map detail. Extra caution should be used in
‘overzoom’ since some detail, such as roads, are drawn using widely spaced points and the actual layout of
these details may differ from the map presentation.
Panning allows you to move the map in order to view areas beyond the current map area. This provides
a ‘look ahead’ capability, which is particularly useful with smaller map areas. While in panning mode, the
data tabs on the right are hidden.
To pan the Map page:
1. Use the remote
THUMB STICK
or TOUCH, hold, and drag your fi nger to move the map in any direction,
including diagonally.
2. Once you are fi nished panning, you can quickly remove the panning arrow and re-center the map on
your present position by pressing the remote QUIT key or TOUCH the back arrow in the upper left.
As you begin to pan the map with the remote, a pointer appears. This map pointer serves as a target
marker for the map. If you change the scale, the map is redrawn with the pointer at the center. When
the pointer is placed on a map object, the name of that object is highlighted and an ‘I’ (Information) icon
appears in the upper right corner. If the pointer is on a blank area of the map, a Create Waypoint ‘Flag’
appears. This feature applies to everything displayed on the map except route lines and track log data.
When a map item or waypoint name is highlighted, you can review information, show it on the map, or
execute a ‘Go To’ directly from the Map page. Waypoints have an additional ‘Delete’ option and all other
map items have a ‘Flag’ icon to create a waypoint at that item’s location.
To select an on-screen location with the panning pointer:
1. Use the remote THUMB STICK or TOUCH to highlight the desired map item.
2. To view information for the selected item, press IN on the THUMB STICK or TOUCH the Information ‘I’
in the upper right corner.
3. To exit the information pages, press QUIT on the remote or TOUCH the ‘X’ in the upper right corner.
