This section will walk you through creating waypoints, creat-
ing a route, editing the route, and, finally, activating the route
you created. The area chosen for this example was intention-
ally selected so that there is little or no land mass to interfere
with the tutorial. You may follow along with your receiver,
just bear in mind that coordinate values displayed in this tu-
torial may differ from the ones you view on your receiver.
Some of the steps and features displayed can be performed in
other manners. For example, in this tutorial, a waypoint could
have been created using the MARK key or created from the
waypoint list. The objective here is to demonstrate the cre-
ation of waypoints and routes using the Map Screen.
The first step is to look at the Map Screen we are going to use.
The receiver has been turned on and the
NxtScrn
softkey
pressed, causing the Map Screen to be displayed. Next, the
Hide
softkey is pressed to allow a larger area of the map to
be displayed. The cursor is moved with the Cursor Key until
the area in which the route is to be created is displayed.
Press
Waypts
to access the
waypoints map screen. Use
the CURSOR KEY to
move the cursor (arrow) to
the location of a waypoint
that will be used in the
route.
Press the
Create
softkey.
