It is time to let the eTrex guide you back to the waypoint we named ‘HOME’ using the
GOTO function. The GOTO function provides you with a straight line navigation path to
your selected destination.
To start a GOTO:
1. Press the PAGE button to switch to the MENU Page.
2. Press the
UP or DOWN button to highlight ‘WAYPOINTS’, then press ENTER. The WAY-
POINTS Page appears.
3. Press the
UP or DOWN button to select the tab containing ‘HOME’, then press ENTER.
4. Press the
UP or DOWN button to select ‘HOME’, then press ENTER. The REVIEW WAY-
POINT Page appears.
5. Press the
UP or DOWN button to highlight ‘GOTO’, then press ENTER.
The Compass Page appears and you’re ready to begin navigating!
Heading in the Right Direction
The eTrex guides you back to where you started using the Pointer Page. The arrow shows
the direction of the destination waypoint. Walk in the direction the arrow is pointing until it
points at the Moving Direction Line at the top of the compass ring. If the arrow points to the
right, you need to go to the right. If the arrow points to the left, go left. When the arrow is
pointing straight up, you are on the correct track!
The destination name, distance to the destination, and time to reach your destination
are displayed at the top of the screen. The speed you are traveling is shown at the bottom of
the screen. Once you are getting close to your destination, the eTrex gives you the message
“ARRIVING DESTINATION.”
The Pointer Page tells you what direction you should
move. When the arrow is pointing right, just move right
until the arrow is pointing straight up at the Moving
Direction Line (see picture below).
When the arrow points straight up
(as shown), you’re on track!
