Chapter 10 - Waypoint and Route Navigation
Page 10-8
The FOLLOW ROUTE screen comprises two sections: At the
top half of the screen, the right side lists the selected route's
waypoints, and the length and bearing of each leg; the left side
shows a graphical representation of this route. To the right of
the NEXT LEG column is a red vertical slide bar, which is rela-
tive to the size of the route (its number of waypoints). The
smaller the slider, the larger the route; the larger the slider, the
smaller the route. The slider also indicates your position in the
list, i.e. at the top, in the middle, at the bottom, or anywhere
else in between.
To see the route's individual waypoints and legs highlighted
on this graphic, press the CURSOR PAD up or down to move
through the waypoint list.
The bottom half of the FOLLOW ROUTE screen illustrates how
you'll begin following the route. Note that it illustrates a sam-
ple route, not the specific route you chose:
•
when you select a starting waypoint to go directly to, the
graphic shows how you'll navigate to it
•
when you select a starting leg to join with, the graphic
shows how you'll join the leg
The length of the route and the number of waypoints compris-
ing it are also displayed at the bottom of the screen.
From this screen, you can select any of the three options
described below, or press the CANCEL key to return to the
ROUTES screen.
Following a route by choosing a starting waypoint
You can navigate directly to a waypoint in a route, then follow
the rest of the route:
1. At the FOLLOW ROUTE screen, press the CURSOR PAD
up or down to select the desired waypoint. Note that by
pressing the REVERSE DIR key you can reverse the direc-
tion in which you'll follow the selected route (only the
copy of the route that's displayed is reversed; the original
route remains unchanged in the 961's database).
2. Press the FOLLOW NOW key.
