Routes

Often a trip from one place to another
involves several course changes, requiring a
series of route points which you navigate to,
one after another. The sequence of
waypoints leading to the ultimate destination
is called a route. The GP-150-DUAL can
automatically advance to the next waypoint
on a route, so you do not have to change the
destination waypoint repeatedly.

The GP-150-DUAL can store 30 routes and
each route may contain up to 30 waypoints.
Routes can be registered while in the Plotter
1 or Plotter 2 display mode. Routes are
mutually registered when the navigators are
sharing data.

Entering routes

1) Press the

WPT/RTE key.

2) Press

5 to select Route Planning. The

route list appears.
