Highway Page
Whenever a NAV/MOB, TracBack or route has been activated, the GPS 152s Highway Page will
provide digital and graphic steering guidance to the destination. The right side of the Highway Page
features user-selectable data elds that display useful navigation data. The middle section of the screen
provides visual guidance to waypoints on a graphic highway display. The line down the center of the
highway represents your desired track line.
As you head toward your destination, the highway perspective moves to indicate your progress to
the waypoint and which direction you should steer to stay on course. If you are navigating a route, the
Highway Page shows each route waypoint in sequence connected by a black road with a white line
down the middle, which is your desired track line. The Highway perspective scale may also be zoomed
in or out to display a larger or smaller view of the highway. Five zoom settings are available from 1X
to 16X, with a default setting of 8X.
