Map Page
The GPS 126/128 features a powerful real-time
moving map that does much more than just plot your
course and route. The Map Page also provides you with
a target cursor that will let you pan ahead to nearby
waypoints, determine the distance and bearing to any
map position, and mark new waypoints while you
navigate.
The map contains 12 selectable range scales from
0.2 to 320 miles (0.5 to 600 km). The scale represents
the distance shown from the top of the screen to the
bottom. Move from scale to scale by using the dedicated
zoom keys (IN and OUT). Pressing IN decreases the
scale and pressing OUT increases the scale.
A diamond icon in the center of the page represents
your present position, with your track and/or route dis-
played as a solid line. Nearby waypoints are shown
with the corresponding name listed. You may select
which items are shown through the map setup sub-
menu page (see pages 40-41 for more information).
The four corners of the Map Page are used to dis-
play various navigation data, including the bearing and
distance to a destination waypoint and your current
track and speed over the ground. The two fields at the
top corners of the map show your bearing and distance
to one of three selectable destinations: an active destina-
tion waypoint; a highlighted on-screen waypoint; or the
panning target crosshair. If you are not navigating to a
waypoint or using the panning function, the top data
fields will not be displayed. The bottom corners of the
display always show your current track and speed.

Note: A map scale repre-
sents the distance shown
from the bottom to the top
of the Map Page. For
example, when viewing
the 2 mile scale, the dis-
tance represented between
the top and bottom of the
screen is 2 miles.
