Creating and Using Routes
Route navigation allows you to create a sequence of
intermediate waypoints that lead you to your final
destination. The Vista Cx lets you store 50 routes with
up to 250 points each.
Creating a Route
You can create or modify a route using the Routes
Page, and you can add waypoints to a route from
the Find Menu. You can create more complex routes
using a PC and MapSource mapping programs and
then transfer them to the unit memory. Auto-Routes,
which are generated when you select Go To for a
Find item, map item, or waypoint, cannot be saved.
Saved routes with more than 50 waypoints cannot be
navigated using the Follow Roads option.
To create a route:
1. Press the Menu key twice to open the Main
Menu.
2. Highlight the Routes icon, and press Enter to
open the Routes Page.
3. Use the Rocker to highlight the New button,
and press Enter to open the Route Page.
