Magellan eXplorist 500 - Manual (Page 53)

Creating a GOTO Route from the Map Cursor
This will create a GOTO route to a point on the map that you have indicated by moving the
crosshair cursor on the Map screen.
1. While viewing the Map screen, use the Arrow joystick, causing the eXplorist to go
into Cursor mode.
2. Continue using the Arrow joystick to move the crosshair cursor to a point on the
map that represents where you want to go.
3. Press GOTO.
4. If a GOTO is active, you will be asked to deactivate it and create a new GOTO route.
Highlight
Yes and press ENTER to overwrite the existing GOTO. You are then
asked whether you want to create a new GOTO route. Highlight
Yes and press
ENTER.
5. Confirm that you want to create a GOTO from the current cursor position. Highlight
Yes.
(If you highlight
No and press ENTER, the eXplorist assumes that you still want to
create a GOTO, just not to the current cursor position. The POI database screen
will be displayed so that you can search the database for the POI you want to use
as the destination.)
6. Press ENTER.
After you press ENTER, the last viewed navigation screen will be displayed, updated as
needed to provide information about the GOTO route you have created. On the Map screen, a
line will be drawn representing the GOTO route. The Compass screen will change to display
the name of the POI used as the destination in the screen header bar and an icon
representing the destination outside the compass diameter.
