Tour

Highway Page

Like the Compass Page, the Highway Page also provides
graphic steering guidance to a destination waypoint.
You can use the Highway Page instead of the Compass
Page as your primary navigation page when your main
concern is to follow a defined course.

Your present position is displayed at the bottom

center of the highway display.

The line down the middle of the highway represents

your desired course. As you navigate toward a way-
point, the highway will actually move—indicating the
direction you’re off course. To stay on course, simply
move toward the center of the highway.

The fields at the top left of the page show speed and

distance to your destination (or the next waypoint in a
route), along with a track compass showing current
direction of travel.

Across from the speed field is the time required to

reach your destination (or the next waypoint in a
route), in hours/minutes or minutes/seconds. The point-
er shows the bearing to your destination, relative to
your current track. If the pointer points straight ahead,
you’re heading directly to your destination!

Active Route/GOTO Page

The last of the six main GPS pages is the Active

Route/GOTO Page. This page shows the GOTO way-
point or each waypoint of a route, with waypoint name
and the course along each leg (segment) of the route.

When using a route, the current destination is

marked with an arrow on the left-hand side of the
screen. If no destination has been specified using the

#/GOTO key or a route, no waypoints will be listed on
the page.
