4. Press EXIT to turn off the steering and speed boxes. The GlobalMap
3200 will now automatically "steer" along the trail or route. When you
arrive at your "destination," cancel navigation as you normally do.
Tip:
You can pick any spot on the map to begin your simulation session
by using the Initialize GPS command. This makes your unit think
it's located at the position you select. See it's entry following the en-
try for
Hide GPS Features.
Initialize GPS
This command is handy when you are practicing in simulator mode.
(See the entry in this section for
GPS Simulator.) In simulator mode,
this command makes the GlobalMap 3200 operate as if it sitting some-
place other than its actual location. So, you and your unit could be lo-
cated in Kansas City, but easily practice navigating in the ocean off Is-
lamorada, Florida.

location and press
ENT . When the message automatically clears, follow
the message instructions.
3. In a moment, your present position marker arrow appears on the
map in the location you selected with the cursor. The GlobalMap 3200
will consider that spot as it's last known position until changed by ei-
ther a live satellite lock-on or a new simulator location.
Map Auto Zoom
This receiver has an auto zoom feature that eliminates much of the but-
ton pushing that other brands of GPS receivers force you to make. It
works in conjunction with the navigation features.
First, start navigation to a waypoint. (See the waypoint section for
more information on navigating to a waypoint.) Then, with the auto
zoom mode on, the unit zooms out until the entire course shows, from
the present position to the destination waypoint. As you travel toward
the destination, the GlobalMap 3200 automatically begins zooming in
— one zoom range at a time — always keeping the destination on the
screen.
