The Find Menu
The Find Menu
The Find Menu allows you to find stored locations
(waypoints) and map items (cities, exits, etc.). They can be
found by name or those nearest to your Current Location
(Position Icon) or to the Map Pointer (Panning Arrow).
Press the FIND key to access the Find Menu.
When you select a category from the menu, you will also
be able to choose from two methods of listing. The ‘By Name’
list contains every item in the map database for the selected
category, while the ‘Nearest’ list contains only those items that
are near to your location or the Map Pointer.
The Find Menu allows you to locate or travel to:
Waypoints - Marked and saved locations on the map
used as a destination or points on the way (waypoints)
to a destination. Refer to pages 18 and 19 to mark or
create a waypoint.
Cities - A list of cities on the maps.
Interstate Exits - A list of all Exits on the nearest
Interstate Highway, categorized by ‘All Types’, ‘Services’,
‘Rest Areas’, and ‘Other’ (weigh stations, etc.).
Points of Interest - A list of restaurants, museums,
hospitals, lodging, etc.
Addresses - A page with data entry fields for address
number, street name, city and postal code, used to
define an address.
Intersections - A page with data entry fields for two
streets, a city, and postal code, used to define an
intersection.
These pages are structured with a set of sub-menus and
location information pages that guide you through the
process of finding locations (waypoints, cities, points of
interest, etc.). Use them to construct a Route, establish a
direct line of travel (Goto), or to merely find them on the map
when gathering information.
The Points of Interest, Addresses, and Intersections
options require a data card with MapSource data. If
MapSource data is not used, these three options will
appear gray and will not be accessible.
More detailed information about using these features is
contained in the Reference Section of this manual.
