The map menu offers a variety of options, which include, finding dis-
tances, scouting, changing the orientation of the map and viewing and
modifying map data.

Moving Around the Map: Zoom & Cursor Arrow Keys

The map is presented from a bird's-eye view. The current zoom range
shows in the lower left corner of the screen. If the zoom range says "4
mi," then the map — from the left edge of the screen to the right edge of
the screen — covers four miles.

1. Press the

ZIN

key (zoom in) to move in closer and see greater detail in

a smaller geographic area.

2. Press the

ZOUT

key (zoom out) to move farther away and see less map

detail in a larger geographic area.

You can pan or scroll the map northward, southward, eastward or
westward by using the arrow keys, which will launch the cursor cross-
hairs. To clear the cursor, press

EXIT

and the map will be switched back

to the current or last known position.
