Selecting a User-Defined Navigation Page

Once you’ve selected a GOTO destination or activated a TracBack, MOB, or

route, the GPS II

+

will provide graphic steering guidance to the destination with one

of two navigation pages:

•The Compass Page (default) provides a directional pointer to the destination,

with a rotating compass display to show your direction of travel (Fig. 54a). The
compass page provides better steering guidance for car travel, hiking, or biking,
where straight-line navigation usually is not possible.

•The Highway Page provides a graphic highway that shows your movement

relative to the desired course, with an emphasis on your crosstrack error (the
distance and direction you are off course) (Fig. 54b). This page also features a
course deviation indicator (CDI) (see p. 78). The Highway Page is well-suited
for water or off-road recreation where straight-line navigation is possible.

Both pages provide a digital display of the bearing and distance to the destina-

tion, and your current speed and track over the ground. You can switch to either
Navigation Page at any time.

To select either Navigation Page:

1. Press ENTER from the existing Navigation Page, and ENTER again to change the page.
