9. ROUTES

The CP500 has the capability to store 50 Routes with a maximum of 50 Waypoints each.
A Route can consist of Waypoints or Marks. The difference is when a Route is made using
Waypoints and the Route is deleted the Waypoints are also deleted. However if a Route is
made of Marks and the Route is deleted the Marks stay in memory.
