A circular symbol showing your destination (waypoint) appears on the

screen as you approach the waypoint, as shown on the screen in the

preceding figure.
Travel Time is the time that it will take to reach your destination at

your present closing speed. (You can also customize the time data box

to show Arrival Time instead. Arrival Time is the local time it will be

when you arrive at the destination, based upon your present closing

speed and track.)
In the preceding example, the driver is headed west (a 265º track) to-

ward a waypoint 265º (bearing) away. The cross track error range

(white corridor) is 0.20 miles either side of the course. The driver is

headed toward trail waypoint 4, which is 0.3 miles away. The vehicle is

right on course. Traveling at a speed of 8 mph, the driver will arrive at

the waypoint in 2 minutes, 17 seconds.
The Navigation Page has its own menu, which is used for some ad-

vanced functions and for setting various options. (Options and setup

are discussed in Sec. 8). To access the Navigation Page Menu, from the

Navigation Page, press

Map Page
The Map Page screens show your course and track from a bird's-eye

view. By default, this unit shows the map with north always at the top
of the screen. (This can be changed. See the topic Map Orientation, in

Sec. 8.) If you're navigating to a waypoint, the map also shows your

starting location, present position, course line and destination. You,

however, don't have to navigate to a waypoint to use the map.
Map Page is the default screen that appears when you turn on the unit.

. When the Map Page is displayed, a screen similar to the fol-

lowing figures appears.
The arrow in the center of the screen is your present position. It points

in the direction you're traveling. The solid line extending from the back

of the arrow is your plot trail, or path you've taken.
The map zoom range is the distance across the screen. This number

shows in the lower right corner of the screen. In the first of the follow-

ing example figures, the range is 4,000 miles from the left edge of the

map to the right edge of the map.
The Zoom In and Zoom Out keys zoom the map to enlarge or reduce its

coverage area and the amount of mapping detail shown. There are 39

available map zoom ranges, from 0.02 miles to 4,000 miles.
