Garmin GPS III GPS Receiver User Manual


 
The Route Edit Page also displays trip planning information for each leg or the
entire route. Available information includes desired course, time to waypoint, distance
to waypoint, required fuel and sunrise/sunset times at the waypoint location.
To use the trip planning features:
1. To select the desired planning figure, highlight the desired route from the Route List
and press ENTER to display the Route Edit Page. One of ten available planning figures
appears to the right of each route waypoint. Use the LEFT/RIGHT keys on the rocker
keypad to select the desired item.
2. To enter planning information, Press MENU and select ‘Setup Plan’ from the options
list. Enter the figures for speed, fuel flow and departure date/time.
Active Route Page
The last page appearing in the main sequence (using the PAGE or QUIT keys) is
the Active Route Page. Whenever you have activated a route, GOTO or TracBack, the
Active Route Page will show each waypoint (by name) of the active route, along with
the desired course, distance to waypoint, time to each waypoint, fuel requirements or
sunrise/sunset times at each route waypoint. As you navigate the route, the informa-
tion on the Active Route Page will automatically update to indicate the destination
waypoint and any remaining interim waypoints.
From the Active Route Page, you can change the name of the active route (see page
67), review information on a route waypoint (see page 48) or bypass route waypoints
and GOTO any waypoint in the route (see page 62). The user-selectable data field on
the right side of the page also keeps you informed of current conditions. There are ten
different data items available. See page 98 for descriptions of navigation terms.
To change the Active Route Page data, press the LEFT/RIGHT keys on the
rocker keypad.
With a route displayed, use
the LEFT/RIGHT keys on the
rocker keypad to select the
trip planning features.
The Active Route Page shows
the route currently being used
for navigation guidance.
