PLOT SCREENS
Three graphical screens can be accessed from the PLOT key: the PLOT
screen, the ROAD screen and the POINTER screen. You may scroll through
these three screens by pressing the PLOT key repeatedly once you have
accessed one of the PLOT screens or by using the UP/DOWN ARROWs.
Press ENTER from any of these three screens to display the pop-up menu.
Viewing the POINTER screen
Access the POINTER screen by pressing the PLOT key (twice or three
times, if necessary). This screen graphically displays the TO destination
waypoint of the current leg if there is an active route or GOTO and
the bearing and distance to that waypoint. An arrow inside the arc
points toward the destination of the active leg, shown as a waypoint
icon.

Viewing the PLOT Screen
This screen plots your route on the display using the arrow icon to
display your relative position on the route. Your track is also displayed,
allowing you to follow your movement in relation to the course.
Press the PLOT key as necessary to access the PLOT screen. If many of
the waypoints you have created are contained in the current display
range, the screen may take several seconds to redraw. (If the screen
does not look similar to the one shown on the following page after
several seconds, press the PLOT key repeatedly to scroll though the
sequence.)
