GPS Simulator
The GPS simulator lets you use the unit as if you were outdoors navigat-

tures. You can set the starting location by entering latitude/longitude
(Starting Position) or from a stored waypoint, map place or POI location
(
CHOOSE START command). You can steer your position and change speed
on the map by using the arrow keys (
STEER WITH ARROWS command) or by
setting the track and speed in the dialog boxes provided on the simulator
menu screen.
