6.5 BUILDING ROUTES USING AutoStore
TM
GARMINs AutoStore
TM
feature, introduced in Section 3.4, allows you to
capture your position and store it in the route of your choice at the touch of
a button. By doing so, you are building a route consisting of waypoints stored
along the path you travel.
Suppose you are heading out for a long day of fishing and want to record your
path as you proceed to your destination so that you can safely return from the
opposite direction. Simply use the AutoStore
TM
function to record strategic
waypoints as you travel and insert these waypoints in an empty route from
the AutoStore
TM
Page.
To record your route...
· Press NAV until the Position Page is displayed.
· Press ENT. The AutoStore
TM
Page will be displayed with the default
waypoint name.
· If you wish to give the waypoint a name of your own, move the cursor
under the waypoint name and enter the name of your choice.
