Section 6: Searching
NOTE:
The background map loaded in your unit lets you search for U.S.
Interstate Highway exits and exit services, as well as some land
features, including cities and lakes. For a full set of searchable land
features, including landmarks, streets, addresses and Points of In-
terest, you must load your own high-detail custom map produced
with our MapCreate 6 software. For a complete description of what
detail is found in the background map and custom MapCreate
maps, see the discussion beginning on page 27.
Whether you are in Easy Mode or Advanced Mode, the iFINDER's
search functions all begin with the
FIND key. The search menus work
the same in each mode. The
GO HOME command, however, works only in
Easy Mode and the Find Waypoints command works only in Advanced
Mode. (You can still find a Home waypoint in Advanced mode. You just
search for it using the Find Waypoints command.)
Easy Mode Find menu (left); Advanced Mode Find menu (right).
NOTE:
You can search for items even if the iFINDER hasn't acquired a
position yet or start from a position other than your own. When
you do a search, distance and bearing to the selected item will be
calculated from the iFINDER's current position. If the iFINDER
hasn't acquired a position, it will use the last known position. If
the cursor is active, the iFINDER will always begin the search at
the cursor. You can look up items by name or search for items
nearest to you.
