Navigating Back to Your Starting Point
Now we will navigate back to the waypoint you
marked at the beginning of this exercise using the Goto
function.
Going To (Goto) the Marked Waypoint:
1. Press and release the FIND key to display the Find Menu.
2. Use the CLICK STICK to highlight and select ‘Way-
points’ from the list of categories.
3. You will be prompted to select fi nd ‘Nearest’ or fi nd ‘By
Name’. Select ‘Nearest’ and press in on the CLICK STICK
to display the Nearest List.
4. The waypoint you had previously marked and saved
will be on the list.
Use the CLICK STICK to highlight the
waypoint and then press in to display the Information Page
for the waypoint.
5. Use the CLICK STICK to highlight the ‘Goto’ on-
screen button and then press it in to activate a Goto.
Press the PAGE button until the Navigation Page is
displayed.
Walk in the direction of the bearing pointer until it
points to the top of the compass ring. If it points to the
right, you need to move to the right, if it points left, you
need to move to the left. When it points straight up, you
are on course to your destination. The Goto will provide
you with a direct route back to the waypoint and will not
necessarily follow the track you created.
The destination name, distance to the destination, and
time to reach it are displayed in the window at the top
of the screen. Two additional data fi elds are provided at
the bottom of the page and can be programmed to display
a variety of navigation data such as speed, heading, etc.
When you begin to approach the waypoint, an “Arriving
At Destination” message will appear. You can view your
progress by toggling between the Map and Navigation
Page.
To stop navigation, select ‘Stop Navigation’ from either
the Map or Navigation page’s option menu.
You have now completed a basic exercise in GPS naviga-
tion. As you learn more about the unit’s operation, you will
be able to apply more features to your navigation skills.
