The GPS 50 offers a route navigation feature for you to navigate along a pre-
defined sequence of waypoints.
The GPS 50 route capability allows you to create and store ten routes, each
containing up to nine waypoints. Routes 1 to 9, the storage routes, can be
activated to travel either in the order you defined the waypoints or in reverse
order. Route A, the active route, is the route you are navigating. The
waypoint toward which you are navigating is called the “active to” waypoint.
The waypoint immediately behind you is called the “active from” waypoint.
The line that connects the “active from” and “active to” waypoints is called the
“active leg”.
The GPS 50 features automatic leg selection which will select the route
segment closest to your position as the active leg. The GPS 50 also features
automatic leg sequencing. As you pass a waypoint in the route, the unit will
automatically select the next waypoint as the “active to” waypoint.
